News and Updates!
Hello We would like to update you on some new things happening on our end! Some exciting news is that we have moved to a new office and added a new member to the crew! Her name is Bonnie and she’ll be doing marketing and design with us. Head over to the about page to see all of us! We’ve also gotten a fancy new plaque, planted a terrarium, got a ray-gun lamp, and some sparkling crystal for our bar cart. We recently sent out a newsletter on all the new happenings.

The food was unique and definitely a cutthroat competition. It was a tough decision to announce the winners for the night. The cool awards made by our friends […]
talonX Gets Double Exposed
It’s been a long time coming, but good things come to those who wait, and to us this wait has been worthwhile. Thanks to our talented senior graphic designer Claudiu Angheloni, the talonX team has gotten a makeover of the best kind. Using our own lovely faces and both urban and natural landscapes, Claudiu has created these awesome double exposure images that has literally turned us into narcissists. When it comes to the latest graphic design trends, we wanted to be included. Check out the individual files below to bask in all their glory!
Thinking Outside of the Box
Creativity. This single word encapsulates the idea of thinking outside of the box. But what is does it take to really think outside of the box? Most people will say that it’s doing something that has never been done before, however in this day and age it’s easy to believe that everything has already been done before. The foundation of creativity is the concept of taking whatever is already present and giving it a twist that makes it revolutionary or presenting it on a grander scale that will bring you to the forefront of the playing field. Just take a look at this guy: ErAn Croitoru has taken an idea that The Walt Disney Company originally introduced: the humanizing of both objects and animals in his animated photography. In both cases they make normally inanimate objects come to life and gift them with the ability to talk, sing and groove […]
Invasion of the Invitations
When it comes to invitations, we think it’s safe to say that by and large, they’re pretty much useless after the event is over. That’s not to say that the power of a good invite is something to be taken lightly. In fact, despite their short lifespan, invitations are something that we continue to invest our energies in time and time again. Like with any design undertaking, the first point of sale is to be engaging and as we know there are a number of ways we can accomplish this, the million dollar question is, which is the best option? Having completed yet another successful year of the Stampede as well as being in the prime of summer, there are no shortage of invitations being created in our little workshop. As a result, we’ve developed a keen awareness of the changes occurring in the world of invitations in order to […]
talonX Newsy Pieces for July
For those of you who are frequent visitors to the site, you might have noticed our recent makeover. We’re a little behind on the update (fashionably late we prefer to call it) but figured a blog post was due to give the new digs the attention it deserves. First, a shout out to our talented developers and designers for our brand new homepage! We’ve introduce a snazzy background video of our work into the mix, and if you’re lucky you’ve probably had a glimpse of our preening bird, who has some news of his own… Yes, it’s official folks, the little origami birdy we’ve all come to know and love has FINALLY been christened! By unanimous vote we’d like to officially introduce Ori to the world. Say hi Ori! In other news, our roster of services has expanded and we’re bigger, badder and radder than ever before. Check out our […]
An Introduction to SEO
SEO or Search Engine Optimization has done a fine job of making itself a standard tool in the world of online marketing, and rightfully so. As digitally oriented people and with Google being one of the most visited sites in the world, it’s clear that search engines are the bread and butter of any marketing venture. We’ve previously discussed the importance of ranking high on search engines, but with everyone already so well educated on the value and methods of marketing themselves online, it’s become a rat’s race of sorts to get to the top (or at least on the first page). This is where SEO comes in and with a little friendly guidance on optimizing your site to the best of its ability it’s a sure shot to search engine success. Content is King We’re more than familiar with these words by now and when it comes to SEO […]
