For Today CD Booklet Revisions

So for portfolio, One of the pieces I've currently been working on is my CD booklet.  The original fonts I had used I lost so i replaced the titles and song list page with a font that was very similar to the original one i had.  The font that i have for my interior pages is completely different but I actually like it better. I think its a little more legible and really expresses more of the handwritten journal feel that i was going for verses having an "inked" style font.  I also added a few imagery to go along with my booklet...Comments Appreciated!!

Web Design Project 3 Process

Here is a revision of my original homepage.  I tried to play around with a different color scheme and also a more funky layout version. Is it working? Is it not working? Is my original color scheme more better suited for the knitting concept? Comments Appreciated :)

Web Design_Project 3

Hey guys,
So for my current Web Design Class we are partnered up in the class We have the role of experiencing being the client as well as the designer.  My client is looking to have a website that has easier navigation for well experienced knitters who are looking to find patterns of items that they would be interested in knitting. Shown below is one of my ideas/sketches for my homepage.

 

As you can see it will be easier to navigate...if you want to knit different type of hats you will click on the hat image, if gloves you'll click on the gloves image and so on...then from there it will direct to a page of all the available items. So if you click on the hat image the next page will not only list the name of the pattern but it will provide an image of what the final product will look like so you know if you would be interested in knitting that item or not...verses having to flip back and forth between pages.  Overall I think I'm off to a good start with my clients webpage.

Comments Appreciated

The start of building my resume

So this is the start to building my new resume. I'm trying to play around with some different layout options. Not sure that I really like this too much right now.  The logo that's going to go on my portfolio box will be very similar to how my name and header is in this resume. My name will be like an autograph or signature and then Designs will be in a very modern Block typeface either similar or the same "orator" typeface.  My idea is that once I can fill in more experience the page wont look so funny...I'll be able to add in the service project experience along with my internship experience and i think this will fill out that right side of the page that is offering alot of white space currently.  As far as layout goes I know that I dont want all my information in a one column centered grid.  I'm thinking about playing around with a 2 column grid that is off balance with each other but still works well at the same time :)

Feedback is appreciated :)

It's been a designing kinda summer :)

So as to a start of my summer I had an interview with a print shop last week. I haven't heard back from them yet but I'm not letting that rain on my parade! Just the fact of having an interview this early in the game makes me proud of myself for my accomplishments. So aside from the interview ive been rather busy.

--Created flyers for L'Academie de Danse announcing the opening of their new location opening.
--Created silhouette of dancer for L'Academie de Danse sign.
--Getting clients business cards printed
--Sold photography piece to point of view gallery
--Designing 2 logos for the assistant pastor of Kenly Missionary Baptist Church
         --one for NT90X=New Testament 90 Days...
         --one for the student ministry which will be a tshirt design as well.

My goal for the summer is to get into the darkroom and produce some more photography.

But, needless to say its going to be a designing kinda summer!

Posted below is the NT90X logo :)
