FINAL WEEK IS OVER! 152 hours are completed!

I am proud to say I have completed 152 hours working at the University YMCA!. It is so sad to say I will    be leaving them. This was an experience I will never forget, I really enjoyed every moment I spent working as a graphic designer intern at the Y. This experience helped me step out of my comfort zone and really put my skills to the test which I succeed in the job. I have gained so much knowledge how a graphic designer is very important to promote their company and relays on how successful the designer designs. I designed best to my ability, received positive feedback form my work and took pride of the skills,and talents what I have accomplished designing work for the University YMCA. I will be sending thank you cards to my boss, and coworkers for having me as an intern.

I have worked on a cover for an annual report 2012-2013 for the Y. I am hoping that I will continue on this project after I have finished working for them and have this as a freelance project on the side. This catalog or booklet will be about 20 pages long and will be published in June of 2013. This would be a great piece to my portfolio.

I have worked 10 hrs this week. I have started on a new project by designing 3 pamphlet brochure design 5.5 in by 11 in about the University YMCA. This brochure lists the programs as well as its mission and what the University YMCA is about. In the past this brochre has already been created but it was my job as a graphic designer redesign this brochure to be brand compliance as well as have a consisent design that the Y already had. There certain colors I was only allowed to use, 2 fonts Verdana or Cachet, and use the Y's images that were approved by my boss.

Spring break workaholic!

This spring break I worked 36 hours! The reason being is because I found my internship late. I started a week after the class already started. Last week I have created the dump and run flyer in the mtd but I had to change the design horizontal because of the placement in side of the buses. I also have been working a action  book for the Y. I have created it in Indesign and have been working on this design spring break. It is 26-28 pages half letter. I wanted it so be simple yet unique. I tried to work on my typography skills and was very limited to use color. So I created a design in black in white and gray and had a consistent design. Below you will see the final design for Dump and Run and the Annual Action Sale the Y is holding.










I loved the final design I have created for the book. My boss loved the design work.

DUMP + RUN




I worked 10 hrs this week. So I have created an 11x17 flyer for the interior  design for the MTD. This is an event I think everyone should mark on their calenders. Every year people in the community donates used furniture  cloths, anything you have the YMCA will been collecting and selling in Aug.

I would look at the site because you never know what you might get at this place. You might find new stuff. This is a great way to recycle items you don't use anymore.
