This interest allows him to create designs that are not only visually pleasing, but also highly effective. In addition to his skills as a graphic designer, Mark has studied visual arts and audio engineering, and ran a small recording studio for a time before focussing on graphic design. This additional skill set often comes in handy on projects with audio components.

Aaron Bergunder – Graphics
Aaron began his creative media training while still in high school, nerding out in the computer labs during lunch hours and voraciously learning as much design software as possible. He continued his education to proudly drop out of Computer Science at the University of Victoria, and eventually earn an Applied Communication diploma from Camosun College. The diploma honed his skills in media production for print, web, radio and television. He napped at his desk at a publishing company for a few months after college, but soon left that to pursue musical endeavours on the road. Unfortunately, Aaron’s bands are only mediocre and don’t pay the bills, so thenumber stretched out its charitable arms and welcomed him to the family in February 2010 as a jack-of-some-trades. Aaron feels like a grown-up now.
