Roll up your sleeves!

Hey all you VPA lovers, midterms are here! Well for us its more like projects, which is way better than any exam. My project due for this week is to re-create a logo for a major company, and I choose Mattel! I mean who wouldn't want to design a logo for a company that designs toys! I am still a kid at heart, so this project is definitely a favorite one. So far I have 5 different ideas, 30 thumbnails, and so many roughs to choose from. The hard part will be picking the one I like best, and I will let you know how this project goes in my next blog! Moving to ceramics, our midterm consists of drawings, yes, drawings! We got a chance to research up on come cool ceramic pieces, and hand render (copy) them into our sketchbook. With that we also started making some awesome mugs/cups, and I can't wait to see the result! Until next time, have fun you art lovers!

Racing the clock!

Hey everyone! Today is going to be a very busy day, as I have to do a full project before tomorrow morning, and I have a 9-6 workday! I have to literally race the clock if I want to get any work done! My project is to design two magazine spreads, with 10 thumbnails a piece, and 2 sketches. I have an idea of the spreads I am going to use, but before I do any of that I have to write 2 design briefs. I seriously need some superwoman strength today, so wish me luck, and until next time, have a good one, and hopefully a less stressful day than mine!!!
