Book Cover Design

This was one of the most enjoyable assignments that I've had. We had to do cover designs for an existing biography, non-fiction, and fiction books. We were required to do 2 covers for each book, one using photos, one using typography.

Logo Redesign and Use: Pocket Books

For this assignment, we had to choose an existing company and redesign their logo, and then use the new logo for advertising, a company letterhead, etc. In my research, I found that Pocket Books had gone through a few different redesigns, but people tend to prefer the little kangaroo. I kept this in mind when I did the redesign, and incorporated it on the business card, letterhead, and bookmark.

Logo Design and Use: Olympics

We had an assignment to create a logo for the 2008 Olympics, and to then use the logo in a poster for a sport of our choosing. Here is how mine turned out!

CD Design

This was an assignment to design a greatest hits CD by our favorite band. Of course, I chose Bowling for Soup! The images aren't exactly what I was going for, but then I didn't have the opportunity to sit in on a photoshoot with them :)

**At this time I can't locate the remaining files for this project, but these are the 2 most important anyway!

Midol Ad (for kicks)

This was just a warm-up type exercise, but it still makes me laugh :)

Advertising Assignment: Gym

In Fall of 2007 I had a class where we had an assignment to create ads for a gym that included a magazine ad, a poster, and a billboard.
