MICHEAL SWAN: THIS JUST IN >>>

The Tacoma Film Festival folks just sent this announcement to the Weekly Volcano World Headquarters:

“The poster screams ‘movies’ along with highlighting landmarks of Tacoma and Pierce County,” explains Philip Cowan, The Grand Cinema Executive Director and brains behind the Tacoma Film Festival.  “With the amount of talented submissions we received it almost seemed impossible to choose just one.”
 
Thank you to each and every artist who submitted a design.  The Grand Cinema is very lucky to have such great supporters that are willing to share their talent.
 
About the Artist
David Mackey was born and raised in Tacoma, Wa and graduated from Wilson High School.  A musician by trade he found out 5 years ago that he needed someone to design album covers and was having a hard time locating someone who could do that.  He decided to design them himself and thus began his new career in graphic design.  He currently resides in Venaco, Corsica, France (a village of about 700 people) along with his wife and son.  His mother and brother still live in Tacoma.
