All the while, I'm looking for a slight career change (full time employment as a graphic designer while still doing photography) and am applying for jobs all over the US, so I might even be moving!! But I will give everyone forewarning before that happens.
So last week was the Washtenaw Community College Digital Media Arts Student Gala. All the hard work that I've been doing since January was all for this day. I had to comp up all the packaging and layout my portfolio for judges to review, then after the judges were done the show was open to the public. The turn out was awesome! There were loads of students families, then there were various professionals in the area scoping out the new talent, and then there were people that just appreciate art. It was pretty amazing to see the support that the students have.
Ok, so I must admit that I buy product based upon their packaging design. I am a true minimalist lover and your last image of the kitchen ware packing showcases amazing design! I want this to be on the shelves at Target so I can go and purchase! The colors are fab, the design chic and all-in-all spot on for a consumer like me. Fabulous work!
ReplyDeleteGood luck in your career endeavors! I can't wait to read all about it :)
That's awesome that you said you could see this at Target, because in the project description for the class, my teacher said that these fake companies were branches off of Target :D
DeleteI understand the excitement in relaxing from a tough school semester! I am currently on break for a week! woot woot!
ReplyDeleteThat's got to be rough, only one week of break. I'm done theoretically forever with college, but I'm already slightly freaking out about not being in school lol.
DeleteI love your design at the end! I would definitely be drawn to those products.
