Lots of Logos...

This week I presented the first over 40 logos to the Fine Arts Department. Since I was told to go crazy and come up with logos, I had a big variety of styles. Everyone seemed thrilled about them. We narrowed the selection to 4 logos that I had to develop.
The instructions I received were that it had to be simple, beautiful, eye-catching and express the following terms: art, synergy, involvement in the community, young, energetic..... and absolutely no use of symbols!

Action shots and 1st Logo meeting

This week I delivered the "action shots" or also called "publicity pictures". Mrs. Carla Webbles, my mentor, needed those for all the publications and publicity for the play. She complimented my work and seemed really pleased.
I got to interview the costume designer, a Lady who did a wonderful job on the costumes.
I also had my first logo meeting. I met with the Fine Arts Division Chair, who gave me the task of creating a logo for their 30th anniversary. We agreed that I would create a few pages of very different logos and we would decide from there what direction we would go.

Set Designer & Action Shots

This week I delivered the two posters for the play. Mrs. Carla Webbles will have them printed in the best possible quality for the budget she has available. She will also be using them for smaller promotion material.
I did two very different photo shoots for the publicity pictures. I retouched both sets to be able to deliver them next week.
I also did an interview with the set designer, someone very interesting and passionate about his work. I took photographs of the set from the paper sketch, through the paper model, and will keep doing that until it is finished.

Work on Poster

During my weekly meeting with Mrs. Carla Webbles and Mr. Ed Muth we discussed dead lines for the poster. The publicity has to be sent out for print next week in order to have the materials ready beginning July, on time to advertise the play.
We reviewed possible formats for the publicity pictures.
We looked at the progress made on the integration of a skull image inside the lace image for the poster, via Photoshop.
