Class Thoughts

This week we weren't assigned reading but we are working on a logo making project and we did presentations on design firms or companies with design programs.

I really enjoyed hearing about other awesome design companies. While I wasn't thrilled about how I did presenting I liked listening to others and hearing something positive about graphic design. When I picked an art major I got really discouraged by the fact that people were telling me that jobs in my field of study are dying. But seeing all the companies that are relatively new was refreshing and got me thinking about possible job opportunities.

For the logo project we’re working on now I’m enjoying it so far. I love doing little quick design work, like making t-shirts or logos, and hopefully this will turn out cool.

Overall this class has been really encouraging and I've learned quite a bit so far. I know that there are so many possibilities as to what I can branch off into for a job later and I've learned a lot of knew things that could improve my design process. I haven’t looked at what we’ll be looking at later this semester but I’m sure it’ll be more good stuff.
