Whew. busy busy couple of weeks just past. Heres the short of it. So i graduated from Portfolio Center. AWESOME! and by now so has most of my quarter. Some really strong work all the way down the line. I was impressed by every single book I saw. In anticipation for the unemployment that is so typical in the economy I started looking for freelance work and I found some great stuff. I’ll post more when I can but I’ve been doing some work with Coca-cola for the upcoming Vancouver Olympics. As soon as i can talk about it I’ll make a more thorough post. I’ve also been doing some design strategy for the United Way which has been amazing. Both companies are absolutely huge and it’s been a real learning experience. Each company functions in totally different ways with totally different goals. all in all a great experience. I also managed to find full time employment at Creative Marketing Associates as a designer. CMA, for the most part, designs and merchandises licensed apparel for mega brands like HBO, Harry Potter, Busch Gardens, Coca Cola, Carnival Cruise Lines, Las Vegas… etc. I will post any of the work that i do that gets produced. Confidentiality is a total bummer because half the fun of doing the work is sharing it. so now we get to one of the smaller projects i had the privileged of working on which was the brand language for CJ Isaac Photography. CJ is a talent up and coming photographer who is currently attending Portfolio Center. We met in school and remain good friends and I’m continuously impressed by the work she puts out. CJ’s work is mysterious but also optimistic. A celebration of color and texture.
we wanted a logo to reflect Cj’s distinct style. Heres what we came up with.
Cj has begun working on further applications of the brand. I’ll post them as they come.
Enjoy
