Welcome to Nate Creates!

You’ve stumbled on the creative workshop of Nate Sullivan, an senior interactive designer.

Yes, that’s me, and for over five years I’ve worked as an interactive designer, pushing around pixels for various clients and silently complaining about all the CSS markup and ActionScript code I’ve been forced to learn.

That’s why there’s this workshop. Like most web designer slash developers slash whatever else we decide to do, I like making things look cool more than I like hunting through lines of code for some bug. And while I’m pretty comfortable making TextMate sing and CSSEdit dance, I’d much rather be doodling with with a Wacom in PhotoShop and watching things move in After Effects or my new favorite software, Blender 3D. Of course, if there’s no choice I’ll dive into ActionScript 3.0 code and drop my share of trace(“what the frak!”) statements.

Here at Nate Creates you’ll find creative inventions of all kinds – from free video tutorials (to paid eBooks), to limited edition intaglio prints, oil paintings and drawings – all coming sometime in 2010. Occasionally I’ll tweet at CodeSecrets or get inspired enough to ramble about industry stuff on my blog.

In the meantime, thanks for stopping by.

Nate Sullivan is a senior interactive designer and Nate Creates LLC is his workshop. Yes, that's me, Nate - and over the past five years I've worked with brands large and small. My design work is driven by the philosophy that great design is concept and ideas are king. Technologies and trends change - but creative thinking is always relevant. As a designer slash developer slash artist slash whatever else I decide - my approach is the same. Bold, creative thinking.
