final- third eye tea

Fish library..? maybe

What does it do?
It sells a large variety of fish for household aquariums.

Audience/ Customers? Are they middle class teenagers? Upperclass elderly?

er, fish enthusiasts...from little kids to lonely old people.

What kind of company image do you wish to create? How do you want it to be viewed by the public?
well i was thinking of calling it a fish library because it would provide a lot of information on fish and how to treat them so maybe the logo could look like a bookcase of fish..

What do you sell? How do you hope to make money?
different species of fish and i plan on selling fish and aquariums for them and just basically everything you would need to create your own at home aquarium.

What will you ask your designer to create for you? Why?
i want this logo to be colorful and create excitement and just all around look cool and far out.

Do you need a mascot? A color scheme? How do you develop customer recognition?
i think the color scheme should be something along groovy and far out and by that i mean maroon and dark blues and greens.

Who is your competition? How do you get customers to focus on your business.

competition would be big stores such as petsmart and petco who's selection is honestly just sub par.

burger king logo redesign

logo change

I chose to change and update the Burger King logo. I just chose while passing by one on my way home from school because it stuckout to me. The logo doesnt have show any kind of king or royal pattern which bothers me. I think it should have a more royal upper class kind of feel to it.

meh i tried

final movie poster

movie project

My movie will be sort of an underdog story with a twist. Its about a girl that wants to fight in the UFC all her life but is told that shell never make it. She not only wants to fight in the UFC she wants to be able to hold the title for women and also fight with the men. It all comes to a head when she is entered into a tournament as a joke and she has to defeat one of the baddest female fighters out there, Rhonda Rousey.

unfinished album cover

just gonna put this right here...

Movie poster crit

 I really enjoy this movie poster, even though the movie itself was creepy as all hell. I enjoy it because her eyes are darkened out, well not enough to were you cant see them but it gives one a sense that she is pure evil. Also the I am fond of the top quote because it covers the entire top of the photo lengthwise. The Font of the word orphan all fits the move, although it doesn't exactly blend in well.
 Also it really irks me that only the bottom half of her face is in focus and the red font over chest is really hard to read. I think i only enjoy this poster because i like the movie.

Part 2 : The Oreo Dipper

This product is called the oreo dipper because it is just that. It will safely allow you to dip your most favorite cookie into milk to only improve the taste by ten fold. No more losing your cookie in milk and having to go fishing again. This tool locks in your cookie with a hook and will not let go until you physically grab it.

Part 1: Sani Cleanse

This product is called Sani Cleanse. It is meant to be a digestive system cleanser. You simply swallow 1-2 wipes at the end of the day and it cleans out all of the nasty gook that you have digested throughout the day letting you have a fresh start for the following day.

How to Ruin a Great Design

This article discusses what seems to be some surprisingly poorly designed street signs and bad improvements on both the UPS's and the McDonald's design. I honestly didn't even notice what exactly was wrong with the diverted cyclists sign until it was actually pointed it out. Now all I can see is the obnoxiously large letter D on the sign. As far as the revised UPS sign, I believe that when you have a company symbol that's been around since 1961 its best not to make any drastic changes because people like old fashioned and trust in it more then modern.

As far as the design idea to buy knockoff chairs for McDonald's restaurant's in Europe, that's just something I wouldn't expect from that company.
After reading this article, i'll probably be more aware of what exactly sticks out about these street signs or any advertisements for that matter, to see what really sticks out about them and what I would change about them.

sunset?

different designs that I enjoy
