Gradgumitation

After six years of school, I finally par­tic­i­pated in the pomp and cer­e­mony of grad­u­a­tion. My Mom and Dad flew in so it had to be a spe­cial occa­sion. Thursday night, after commencement—which I did not attend—the graphic design depart­ment hosted a lit­tle party for all the seniors, most of whom won’t actu­ally grad­u­ate for another 6 to 10 months. […]

A Breath

After gasp­ing for air for the last few days, run­ning around try­ing to tie up lose ends on this project and that test, it was immensely refresh­ing to walk out of my last final, pause for a moment, and take a deep breath. I was the first to fin­ish the final in my Business Management class. I took a refreshing […]

So Fresh, So Clean

Now that school is wrap­ping up, I decided to redesign the blog. I’m now using WordPress, which I like much bet­ter already. I imag­ine that things will con­tinue to be updated and changed just to finesse what’s here, but I’m pretty happy with how things are arranged. Please let me know your thoughts on the changes.

Slow Motion

The pace of my life has sig­nif­i­cantly decreased within the last week. I have two more finals to take and my BFA to fin­ish, but most every­thing else has tapered to a close. I’ll hope­fully be updat­ing my web­site within the next cou­ple weeks with more work. I might be under­tak­ing an over­haul of my blog also, but […]

Daily Documentary

My fame as a type designer has begun. Okay, not really, but I was asked to par­tic­i­pâté in a very inter­est­ing project that high­lights cre­atives in the Salt Lake area. Dallas Graham, the owner of Montage Creative has started a per­sonal project that delves into the depths of indi­vid­u­als artis­tic endeavors—as deep as you can get in 45 minutes. […]

Frame by Frame

Here’s a dif­fer­ent kind of project I’ve been work­ing on for my motion design class. I’m pretty happy with the results and my final project, a 30 sec­ond ad for Pink Pearl Erasers will have a sim­i­lar style. Enjoy. (The video will appear to be miss­ing, but if you click on it, it should load.)

A Traveling Show

Well it looks like the Water, Politics and Hope show got some pretty big atten­tion. Linda Sullivan, the Graphic Design Department Chair, wants to have the show travel to sev­eral gal­leries in Salt Lake. It is going to be fea­tured in an upcom­ing issue of BYU Magazine as well. One of the most excit­ing parts […]
