Theatre Poster (Another Design)


Here is another design that I created for Arabian Nights. It is like the other design that I created but slightly different. I wanted there to be more than one option.

Book Covers



Here are my book cover designs.

Book Design





I redesigned the books The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns. This project required a lot of measuring and making sure all the fold lined up with the folds of the book.

Condom Box Pictures




These are the pictures I took of the Condom box that I designed. Even with a printing mishap, they turned out pretty well.

Photographs






I love photography. I think it is wonderful to catch a beautiful or expressive moment. I enjoy both digital and film photography. Here are some digital photos that I've taken.

Ski Club Designs



I created a design for the Ski Club at SUNY Oneonta. They loved it but asked me to change it to black and white because it cost them more to print colors. Here is the colored design as well as the black and white version.

Hillel Logo


I was asked to make a Hillel Logo for the Hillel Club at SUNY Oneonta. Here is what I came up with.

Modern & Post Modern Design



I created a post modern design and a modern design. I will admit that I had difficulty with both of these tasks. I believe that I use parts of both categories within my designs so choosing and sticking with parts of one or the other is difficult for me. I think this was an important project because it made me realize what type of designer I am.
The first image is post modern while the second image is modern.

Designs



Here are some designs that I have created for different things.
First is a design used for the Ski & Snowboarding Club at SUNY Oneonta. I thought that using a hat as a mountain might be a fun and creative design. It ended up working out quite well.

The second design is a logo I made for the NORML club at SUNY Oneonta. They wished to have a dragon with smoke coming out of its mouth. I decided to have the words Oneonta State in smoke. I thought the color scheme worked with the cannabis reference.

Resumes

I'm 21. I'm a senior in college and one of my main focuses is finding a job. As a graphic artist, I want to be able to put my skills not only in my resume but on it. I want a potential employer to be able to see some examples of my work on my resume. At the same time, I don't want my resume to look too "showy". I checked around and found some resources that look helpful.


Here are some examples of resumes: (I'm not sure how I feel about most of them.)


More examples:


A short & sweet resume that I love:

Typefaces

A graphic piece can be sold or ruined just by the font an artist uses. Here are some websites that have different types of fonts:


Below are articles all about typefaces:


This webpage shows some very interesting examples of typefaces, including some example of the fonts being used:

Boarding Passes

I was on StumbleUpon and I found this awesome page. It shows graphic ideas on how to enhance boarding passes and make them easier to read.
