1 post from October 2012
- Turned in finals for package design; had a short crit and got out of class early!
- Did homework in the cafeteria before lunch. I was the only person there besides the staff. I did homework and silently rocked out to Transcendental Youth.
- Ran into M Stillion and talked to him for a while. A dream come true.
- Had a really nice independent study meeting with Lutz.
- On tuesday morning, presented the final for my first ad project. I created a new brand for a local hardware store. Glad to be done.
- Looked at wordless ads in copywriting.
- Made little progress in jewelry class but had a ton of fun. My teacher gave me a little piece of sterling silver to use for my project because I was having too much trouble corralling nickel.
- Went back to school tuesday night for a roundtable discussion on Art Spiegelman’s Maus (a sort of kickoff event for CCAD’s Mix 2012 comics symposium). It was ok. I sat with Dorian and Colleen and had fun with them.
- Watched more ad presentations on thursday morning. It would have been more enjoyable had the projects actually been good, but it was relaxing nonetheless.
- Drove back to school thursday night to watch In Search of Steve Ditko on the big screen with a very small handful of other people. It was lots of fun!
- Went to school friday afternoon to see a panel on “indie comics”, then I walked around with Dorian.
- Watched Chris Ware deliver the Mix 2012 keynote talk. He was great.
