The Graphic and Web Design Vernissage is coming up real soon! This event will be going from 5 to 7 PM on April 10th. It will take place in the Agora of John Abbott College. You can get in by the side of Casgrain with the parking lots and drop-off area. I will have a booth there to showcase the printed work that I have done over my three year program. The table will include an 8.5 x 11 inch magazine portfolio that has a comment section in case someone can’t talk to me, business cards, various projects, and a big box of Timbits! Sure it is a bit redundant to have that the event since there already are snacks, but its nice.
These past three years have been really great for me. I came into this program a bit scared since I never did too many art classes over my high school years. My improvement as a designer have been very noticeable over the years, from a simple type poster to the Spiral Knights Stamps for my second to last semester. Those were done with bits of Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator. Those tools have aided my heavily and I enjoy using them to express myself, but I have also been working with other programs. Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects have been working great for improving my video editing skills. Even Dimensions is proving itself to be a great way to quickly make my own mockups for my work. I look very forward to having my own mockups instead of using other people’s for my website.
