survey spring 09.

im pretty proud of the work i produced this semester, and im also proud of the way my survey display looked.  i actually took the time to make it look more professional.  
overall, im pretty proud of the improvements i made as a designer this semester.  package design in specific has really changed the way i think about design, and has helped me to be more daring in my ideas and concepts.

bunch.

haven't posted in a while, so i thought i'd upload a bunch of old stuff. 
--------------------------
this is from my Illustration II class, spring 08. the assignment for the whole semester was to illustrate 5 pieces for a book of your choice. i chose the book "me talk pretty one day" by david sedaris, and this first piece illustrates his "crap in the toilet" chapter. im horrible at drawing, so i had to do a simple line drawing in illustrator.

--------------------------
i took this photo of the washington monument, and heavily edited it in photoshop.

--------------------------
and these are some polaroids i took a while back.

i heart ny.


this was an assignment for my type III class. i had to create a poster that responds to the i love ny logo. it was a pretty open assignment, and i chose to create an i love hawaii image. then i had to attach more of a purpose to my poster, so i created a jet blue ad that someone would see in a subway.
i liked this assignment. i created most of the image in photoshop, from tutorials i found online. i used my own image of sand, and photoshopped in the words. i also photoshopped in the shell. the final size is 16x24.

and i took this photo in newport, oregon this summer. that color tint is from my sunglasses that i put over the lens.

i miss the summer.

sex.


i had to design a sex education poster for vis comm.  
the poster could be sponsored by a group of my choice and i
 chose to represent the gay and lesbian medical association
my focus was on condom promotion. i chose to market my poster towards gay males, and wanted my poster to seem like an underwear ad, and where the blue label seems like it was just stuck onto an existing poster. 
the final product is huge ass, 20x30 inches.


hot hot hot.

print.

this is somewhat old, from fall 07 for visual communications.
the assignment was to create a cover for the print magazine student cover contest, with the theme "design culture youth". the idea for my cover was inspired by coloring books.
as we get older and make the transition from children to young adults, we start to find ourselves and our own personalities, which is what i tried to represent with the figures coloring themselves in. i'm pretty happy with the end result.

pretty fucking sweet.

multiples.

i recently bought a bunch of expired polaroid izone film off of ebay, both for izone 200 and izone pocket.  and i realized that you can take multiple exposures with izones.













my favorites are the portraits that are contrasted with patterns or textures.  ive come to the conclusion that i absolutely love izone film, and am quite sad that its no longer manufactured. so if you have any lying around, feel free to send it my way. =)
