Concert Package

This assignment was to be done all in Photoshop. It was also to have a poster, CD Cover, Program Cover, and Ticket for a Jazz Event. I choose DixieLand Jazz that originated in New Orleans. That is were my father and his family is from, so I love the area and people of Louisiana.

The Design evolved into what you see, the Poster was first and then everything else based on that design. I kept int unified and cohesive with each piece of the package. The background image is a saxophone with a textures and images overlaid to create the final product.

Skateboard

This was my final project for my Production Development Class. We had the chance to design a skateboard. Everything was open; it could go in any direction, it was to just be what I wanted. I really struggled with the design. I first did some trendy designs, and more grungy/punk things; but none ever looked good to me.

So I decided to go minimal and keep the design clean and then echo a popular design in tattoos. People love chinese characters so I based my design off of the symbol for peace, and went from there. I really like the end product, it only took me 10 minutes. It amazes me how sometimes a good design can take so little time.

Watkins Poster

This poster assignment was to announce and guest lecture. We had to choose the designer and duplicate their style in the poster. So my choice was Craig Watkins of Tin Star Media. You can see his website at: http://tinstarmedia.com/ or click here: Tin Star Media.
