Life of Pi postcard

This was an assignment for image methodology where we designed a corresponding image for a chapter or part of a book. I designed several of these that captured all the characters, settings, and objects from the book.

ducky vector

This was a short exercise for graphic design I to familiarize us with the pen tool. I also learned how to use gradients to color the duck.

perceptual map

This is the second map in the series of three, documenting my trip from home to school everyday, this version documents the senses I experience during the commute. It's a work in progress, but you get the idea.

black blocks animation


This is an animation sequence using four black squares to illustrate three different words. The words I used were order, bold, and playful. This was just a short exercise we did to better learn aftereffects for advanced type.

kitchen of meaning poster

This poster was for graphic design II, I was given a word to design a fake gallery show for. My word was melange, which means heterogeneous mixture.

At the beginning of this assignment I created 30 'studies' that represented the word, and I made five different posters before turning in this version.

artifact map

For graphic design I we made a series of maps, this one represents my route from home to school.
