The news from Egg Press




Egg Press News May 2009 Video Debut: As promised, the 3 minute film short “Egg Press Work and Whirl” is available here for your viewing pleasure. The film was shot, directed and edited by Rob Tyler, a Portland filmmaker known for his work on the documentary “A Thing of Wonder” and his other film shorts such as “Color + Modulation” and “Novice Robots.” All the hands shown in the film are those of the actual Egg Press designers and printers and every ounce of the film was shot in our studio in Portland, Oregon. Additionally, our screenprinter and production artist, Danny Seim, scored the film. While Danny is pretty famous in our studio as local friend and funny guy, he’s pretty well known outside our studio as one very prolific and talented musician for both Menomena and Lackthereof. New York Stationery Show: We are working away to finish up the last few designs for our May release and running around doing last minute preparations for the New York National Stationery Show at the Jacob K. Javitz Convention Center which is being held May 17–20th this year. We have a new location this year, booth #2252. We’d love to get a visit from you if you’ll be attending! New Cards Online: Lastly, it’s that Congratulations time of year. In anticipation of the upcoming graduation season we have put a handful of “congrats” card designs on our website. They range from the sweet to the sassy with messages like “Hooray,” “Triumph!,” and “You Rock.” Good luck picking out the right card. And congratulations if you do! We hope you enjoy the film!! And we hope that our thrill for having made it 10 years, and feeling more blessed as a company than ever, is coming through!
