busy beeeeeeeeeeee
Tonight is my second class of the Basic Graphic Design Class that I am taking at SVA (School of Visual Arts). This class is pretty awesome because it specifically deals with issues I’ve had forever–mainly, how to come up with new, interesting and good ideas to solve graphic design problems. OK, so I haven’t always had specific graphic design problems to solve, but I feel like I easily fall into visual idea ruts, and this class is designed to help you break through those.
I’ve decided that I will post my completed homework assignment up here before class every Monday to help keep me accountable, and to keep me from doing it half-way. No judgments, please–I am no pro with the Abobe Creative Suite–YET!
The assignment: design 3 bank brochure front covers using some of the basic ideas introduced in the first class
I primarily used symbols, unity and primary colors to represent the basic building blocks these loans are.
The second thing that is keeping me so busy is the start of an online course that I registered for:
This course is made for business owners and entrepreneurs to help to get them organized and grow their businesses online. I am super excited about it, and the class group already seems like an amazing, inspiring bunch. The course is run by Jaime Derringer, of Design Milk fame, and Erin Loechner of Design for Mankind, who also together run Bakery. These ladies are impressive, and I hope to learn tons over the next 6 weeks!
