tic-tacs.

the title says it all.
i am at work, getting paid to make a typeface out of tic-tacs?!?

it's a good day at work.

fresh.

so this evening i had specific work to do for class, asi, the gallery, etc. and while doing it all... i think i came up with some cool little things. you'll see illustration is starting to show up alot in my work now.

the first is a concept for my new package project. basically we can choose to package anything we want as long as it has three different types of packaging. so, my idea fits me pretty well if you know, i am using my funky vintage, eclectic jewlery to create a made up jewlery collection called, "i found it yesterday." thanks mom. so the idea is to packag the jewlery pieces (earings, necklaces, broaches) in reusable fabric pouches or very cool, very custom boxes coverd in vintage fabric with a latch to keep the box closed. the weird fabric swatches i found will be posted later.



next...
the collage with the blue background is an image i created for a potential poster for the "asi events and activities guide." its something different, but be just a little to out of the box though... will see. then the draws below are for another potential idea for the same project. sorta two different looks.





i smugged out photos i had put in, my digital file had issues so i only have the hard copy now. sad. anyways so yeah new stuff w/ more to come soon as well hopefully a good more chunk by saturday.

new project.

so i dont have any images yet of the new project i am working on, but they will come soon. just to give you a teaser... ASI (my design job) puts out a calender of events at the beginning of every quarter here at Cal Poly. it is known more now as the "ASI Events and Activities Guide," it's a cool project because one side is a poster and the other is a bunch of text... so you get to show your type skills as well as your fun design side too for the poster. i am very excited about the project and hopefully i get to complete the project without it being given to another designer. i'll post sketches and proofs as soon as i get out of the "ideation" phase.
