potential packaging


I sold my first piece of jewelry and this is how I packaged it up!
It's just a simple A2 envelope and card with my logo stamped on it for now. I hope to have something sturdier than an envelope in the future.
















Process Book






Here is some of the pages.


Some Storyboards





Here are a few examples of the past storyboards. 

Travel Infographs

I have been working on a series of small infographs to go along with my project. I took a break from my book to do something a little different and more interesting to myself. Now I am thinking that I will add these into my book. I think it would be nice to have a mix of my imagery of the maps and these infographs that play off of the small books I had created.

Here is what I have come up with so far:






layouts

As an effort of trying to expand my seminar work, I have started photographing combinations 
of outfits, and pairing them with jewelry that I own. My intention with this is to expand on the 
original photographs and put them into the context in which they're used. 





Process Book

My process book for this semester is going to be similar to the last one, but it will have far more content. Here's what I plan to put in it:

The spring project proposal
Seminar reflection paper
Senior year reflection
Screenshots of the website I am making
Screenshots of the final animation
Photos of my space in Proximity.
The postcard from Proximity
Smaller prints of the characters from Proximity
DVD featuring the completed final animatic, final animation, the demo reel and all the animations I had in Proximity.

Simultaneous

Over the course of one night I recorded the verbal conversations in my kitchen on an old cassette recorder. During my physical interactions I noticed myself checking and replying to text messages. I wrote down each message along with the snippet of  real-life conversation that I was having at the same time. Most of the spoken content is silly and unimportant, but what I find the most interesting is the clear lack of focus. As I try to text more, my letters get jumbled and I leave pauses and confusion in my physical conversation.

I wanted the photos to reflect the sort of confusion and glitches that occur while doing two things at once. I took images of myself texting as well as the kitchen and what was going on around me at the time. As the book progresses, more pixel-like bars start to appear in the space reserved for conversation.

The book is about the size and shape and look of my phone. The text messages and photos were printed digitally, but each physical conversation was very carefully letterpressed for emphasis on the tactile.

I've been working on my latest project a lot. I think I want to title it 'Simultaneous' since it deals with multiple lines of conversation going on at once through different mediums. I letterpressed all of the pages this weekend and I'm working on binding and trimming it. I've rounded all of the corners to fit with the shape of the phone. I'd like to bind it accordion style with maybe an accent color for the spine.


I've also been making the edits that we talked about last class in regards to my process book.

Signs




Stop & Go Signs
Font: Helvetica


Map Book

I have been trying to find a balance of clean and rough for my book. Here are some spreads I have. I plan on using actual pins instead of the fake ones I've created. Those are just place holders.




I've been working on laying out my process book.  I'm playing with the layout to make things a bit more interesting as I turn the pages. I've been working with the images and source materials a lot. A few of my spreads below:
