Vance Reeser makes animated films, creates images, crafts websites, and writes a blog. He so expertly filled up this Scout Book with some amazing character sketches–and a collage treat at the end. Not to mention the first time we've ever seen the Scout Book used as a mask! Bravo, bravo Vance! Great innovation. Great sketches.
Find Vance's work here, on his website. One project we're particularly intrigued by is a short animated film Vance is creating called the Beast of Black Lake. He used Kickstarter to fund the project but is still accepting backers to help propel the project towards completion.
We're pretty sure we'll be seeing loads of great stuff from Vance in the near future.

New Belgium Brewery is on tour this summer with 20 short films created by their fans to spread "beer musings and filmed enlightenment." It's called the Clips of Faith Beer and Film Tour with all the proceeds going towards an organization in the host city. Pretty cool, huh? Even cooler, they enlisted our notebook-making expertise to help them create special Scout Books for their beer-tasting needs.
The good folks over at New Belgium sent us some photos from the recent Madison event and it looks like they had a ton of fun. Check out the rest of the tour locations here–if you're lucky, they might be coming to a city near you!

Looks like springtime in Portland to me: rain, rain and more rain.
And fashionable umbrellas.

Jesse Hora is an art director, an illustrator and an Michigan native. He filled these Scout Books with fun, funky sketches and smart illustrations. A super sweet ongoing illustration project of his is Athlete Objects, in which he creates his interpretations of 1980s and 1990s athletes based off of their names, his childhood memories, and their Wikipedia entries. Pretty fresh!
