Ink from the Makers of Pen

It was great to watch the movie. It was wonderfully composed and executed with the manipulation of the timeline. It gave me some great creative ideas of how to do shots and story.

Scheduled Free Time

This week I spent my free time playing guitar. I learned a pretty intense guitar solo that I had always loved, but never had the time to sit down to learn. It's still pretty shaky, but after a couple hours with it, it's a lot better than nothing. I also spent some time watching the movie Shrink. It was very inspiring as a potential writer and storyteller as it showed that story can come from anywhere. It was also kind of cool because I could imagine that the writer put himself in the story and it was pseudo autobiographical. So that's what I did with my time off. Now I have to spend time catching up with my life that has past me by while I've been ignoring it.

Sleek imagery

When I was thinking about circles I was noticing how many companies use the circle to promote their business. It got me wondering why. As I researched the meaning of the circle, I realized why the circle is so appealing within the business world. It has no beginning or end. It is smooth without any edges to deal with. It is able to roll when trouble arises. All of these are appealing elements within marketing. It is a sleek, smooth customer who has been and will be here forever.

Circle Advertising

When I was thinking about crop circles, I was considering how they could be leveraged for a marketing purpose. I realized all the media attention that comes from a field with crop circles. So I designed a logo for an advertising firm that specializes in crop circles to attract media and free advertising for struggling farmers.

Welcome back Beth

It was an interesting class with Beth being back. We finally got the information of just how awesome and undefined the class is. It is going to be challenging for me to be different. I don't want to be completely out there because that does not provide scope within my career goals. I anticipate utilizing a marketing or branding slant on most of the assignments.
