is simple: to be one of the hottest indy creative shops in the nation. He enjoys competing for interesting projects and satisfying clients with solutions they not only like ... but they love.

Current Client List
His current clients include SmileyBooks, for which he is designing a coffee table book for a museum tour set to launch January '09. He is amidst creative development for a new cosmetic line, T!NTALIZE, that he is handling from start to finish. One of his loves is consulting on film and television projects and coaching young designers. Additionally, he produces splash web pages, brochures, promotional materials and his favorite, logos, for a host of clients. In fact, he just began offering upfront pricing on a short list of frequently requested items in response to many requests for more affordable fees foe services.

ViewPoint
As a thought leader on the topics of design and branding, he gets almost philosophical about the convergence of the two symbiotic creative disciplines.

Roberts believes firmly that, “great design breaths character and gives voice to a brand. No matter the size of the brand footprint, it must speak clearly to reach its intended audience successfully.”

He continues, “the AV creative services paradigm is changing for the better. As the dynamics of the population change and major brands see revenue opportunities here, the influx of new creative voices will be vying to be heard and that will benefit us all. Great design and branding
will inevitably expand both the creative and cultural currency of the AV.”

As the competitive spirit of design and branding intensifies in the Antelope Valley, Creative Lunacy will prove to be a worthy adversary & colleague of the status quo. This firebrand creative boutique is intent on fulfilling their market emphasis to ... “Rock the Valley.”
