Leadership Conference Presentation on Social Media and Web

This Saturday not only did I attend my third Student Leadership Conference, but I had the chance to present as well. This was my second year as one of the featured presenters, and I had refined my topic even further than before. The custom-made handout (to the right, press on it to view the full size), a collection of videos, and a smooth oral presentation all got rave reviews from those who attended. The presentation took approximately 40 minutes and there was roughly 20 students in attendance. First, I explained the importance of having a solid web presence, an expansive social media...

Quake Live TV to cover QuakeCon 2010

Hey guys, As some of you know, I’m the founder, webmaster, graphic designer, and guest shoutcaster over at QuakeLive.tv. Quake Live TV runs very much like a business, but we’re all volunteers and our costs are paid for by donations (thanks to an awesome, supportive community). So what is Quake Live TV? Well, it’s an organization that broadcasts live, competitive video game matches with some of the top professionals. While a lot of our coverage is of community-run events, a lot of our coverage is of the professionals competing in high-level tournaments. We’ve covered...

Some Print Designs from February

I designed a set of cards for a maternity company called Haute Momas. It offers two coupons on the back of a card, with a pretty standard stock photo for the front. Still, it turned out pretty darn good – I am a bit fan of the color scheme I selected. Has a very professional, yet light “smoothness” to it. View Full Album This next set is from a flyer for a theme week for Program Board (an student-run organization that organizes and programs all the events on campus). I was experimenting with a lot of new colors, and it turned out pretty damn slick. Getting correct...

Designing my winter break away

It is a winter wonderland here in small town Thomas, WV. The days are long, full of holiday cheer, laughter, and merriment. Oh, and a shit ton of design work. As you may or may not know, I’m a fairly accomplished professional designer. I’ve been designing fairly steadily for about five years now, and have created dozens of websites. I’m nearing the one hundred mark. I’m not great by any means, but I’m getting better and better, and my work is really beginning to shine. Anyway, enough about me! Let’s talk design. My first big project is Games Cast TV. The...

For our first project in Advertising and Imagery (a class I’m taking this semester), we were instructed to design an advertisement for a new type of cigarette, the “Marijuana Cigarette.” This is obviously not a real product, mind you! I designed and developed all three ads. Check out what I came up with: Advertisement for male magazine Advertisement for female magazine Alternative advertisement for female...
