BLOG POST #6—MOODBOARD

Your Brand Statement (Same as from blog post 3!)

My name is Emma and I will be graduating with a bachelor of design. I started mainly as an illustrator but fell in love with the more technical aspect of design through my yearbook class in grade 11/12. I can pull it back if I have to, but I love being loud with my design. It matches the energy I have.

Colour:

I really like the idea of a controlled chaos for my design elements. Using brighter warmer colours for a sense of warmth with the addition of the warmer teal as it is my favourite colour and I use it in a lot of my current branding and would like to keep it. Plus a darker colour for contrast.

Typography:

I’d love to use an interesting font, preferably sans serif. Something fun with a bit of a personality while still readable and not too overbearing. My accompanying font will be a simple and clean sans serif font to compliment the header font. I really enjoy the wording used in the first picture, whimsical + clean and geometric.

Imagery

I enjoy the professional and clean look that photoshop mock ups provide. As I don't have any physical pieces of work to include in my portfolio I will most likely end up using mockups like I've done in the past. Such as the photos below.

Utah fires Craig Smith: Fourth-year coach failed to reach NCAA Tournament as program fell behind rival BYU

Utah fired men’s basketball coach Craig Smith on Monday with four games left in the team’s regular season.  The decision comes at an unexpected juncture. The Utes are far from the NCAA Tournament picture but did beat Kansas and Kansas State in back-to-back home games last week before falling 76-72 at UCF on Saturday. Utah is 15-12 and plays its next game Wednesday at Arizona. The Utes are 7-9 in…

Goals for Fourth Year

Fourth year is here. It’s no longer upon me. It has solemnly arrived, whether or not I was ready for it. Are you ready for it? *Taylor Swift eerily plays in the background* Through happenstance and terrible (but amazing) last minute decisions, I have put together a few goals for fourth year. // Hang out with people on my list // I know it’s weird to admit this but I have a list. As a friend…

Day #19 - June 25th 2021

Somewhat against my will

I am registering for courses

Although the school year seems far off

It’s something I must go through with

It’s startling to realize

To contrast and compare

The attitude I used to have

Way back in first year

I used to be excited

To go through the catalogue

To read the course offerings

To begin a new prologue

Because now I am tired

And I really must confess

I feel only apathetic

And really couldn't care less

Taking a screenshot from your dissertation and editing it on to a picture isn't really the photo on the beach we all expected but the dissertation is still done!!! It's been nearly a year since I chose the topic, and here is my 10k (ish) words I have to show for it. Truly the peak of my academic bullshitting. Seals, I still love you even though you've been a bitch these last few weeks. Now, on to the isolation wine 🥂🎉 #dissertation #uni #fourthyear #marinescience (at The Scottish Association for Marine Science) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_U19j_npBx/?igshid=18ud40fyblbio

BLOG POST #5—CLIENTS AND SCHEDULES

Part 1 –"Ideal Workspace" or "Ideal Client"

Identify your Ideal Workspace

I'd like to work for a company that requires a great deal of artistic creativity in their design. As I am an artist first, designer second, I don't want to lose the fact that my creativity is what got me into this field in the first place. Which means a job where I can be an illustrator would be ideal. I also have a huge passion for video games and have always wanted to work in the field.

For this blog post I am going to use: Supergiant Games

Create a profile of your Ideal Workplace/Client

Who are they?

Supergiant Games is a small video games company based in San Francisco, California. They are responsible for the creation of  handful of high quality games such as Bastion and Hades which is two of their more popular games.

https://www.supergiantgames.com

How are they a good fit for you? 

Due to it being a smaller company of, currently, only 25 employees. As well as it being an indie games studio, as opposed to a major games studio. It matches my want to avoid working in a corporate environment. Though no production is perfect I’ve heard nothing but positive things about how the company is run and how work is produced.

How are you a good fit for them?

With my artistic/design specialty being in character design and typography I feel like I would be a great fit based on the style of games they produce. All of their games have unique and varied character designs and styles, my art style is very flexible and allows itself to adapt to what the design needs.

What are you offering to them, specifically? 

I am offering them an enthusiastic and invested designer who will create good work because I am passionate about what I'm creating.

Part 2 –Weekly Production Schedule

February 25: 

- Begin layout of portfolio site (sketches, XD, etc…)

March 4:

All Good Things- Chapter 3

Long time no see! I don’t know if anybody is still here, that’s okay, I know its been over a year. I finally felt like writing a little more and continue this fic- enjoy? Feedback is always appreciated! 

------ All Good Things Chapter 3 ------

Word Count: 818

The revelation of her crush on the oldest Weasley twin weighed heavy on Y/N’s mind. The thought of her friends, all of her friends, finding out was beyond horrifying. As was the visualization of him possibly rejecting her- she couldn’t bare it. So, she didn’t. From that moment on she swore it would never get in the way of their friendships and would never act on her crush… unprompted at least.    

  Fortunately for her, school kept the girl so busy that her crush could hardly stand in the way of her responsibilities. Fourth year meant preparing for O.W.L.S next year, and their teachers were unrelenting. Many nights she stayed in the library, not only doing her work but also helping Neville with his schoolwork. Magic, it seemed, was not coming easy to the boy and it was beyond devasting for the poor lad. She called him a late bloomer, he called himself a squib. Their arguments could go back and forth for hours. Eventually she discovered that Neville’s round face would light up talking about Herbology. He could go on for hours about the different plants and their functions, and sometimes after a lesson would retell it. Y/N let him, even though she had heard this lecture two years before, as it was interesting- and he was so excited.

           Of course- such heartwarming or pleasant topics came to a screeching halt at Halloween. The Chamber of Secrets had been opened, and member of the castle were attacked. Their safety felt like it had been ripped away, the very real threat of one of their friends being killed weighed heavy. Fred and George tried, as they always do, to make things lighter with their comedic commentary. It didn’t work all the time. Poor Harry Potter was even further outcasted than before, and Y/N didn’t know how students could even think that a 12 year old boy would want to murder people. Neville seemed to believe Harry anyway, so that was good enough for Y/N.

           One night, with the dormitories emptying out due to the late hour, the usual group of fourth years laid around. Not saying much, thinking too hard. They all had contemplated the suspects of who could be the heir of Slytherin, nobody daring to mention Harry’s name, and several offering Draco Malfoy’s instead.

           “He’s got to be it. Little creep called Hermione a mudblood,” George stated, anger crossing his features making his face almost the color of his fiery hair. Undoubtedly remembering the fight that broke out between him and Malfoy.

           “Plus his family, the whole lot was in Slytherin,” Fred added, twirling his wand between long fingers.

           Y/N straighten from her spot on the floor, angling herself to face the twins better as they were sitting on one of the couches in the common room.

           “Good points- But he is only a second year, how could HE be the one to figure out how to open the bloody thing after all this time, and don’t you think he’s been a little bold about the whole thing? It’s too obvious.” Y/N offered an open question to the group.

Angelina nodded in agreement, her chin resting on her folded hands. Alicia looked away thoughtfully and yawned. With a sigh Fred stretched his arms out wide and said,

           “I think you’re right Y/N.”  

           The affirmation from him made Y/N glow on the inside, even as morbid as the subject was. A sudden thud broke the comfortable quiet of the group, Alicia had fallen asleep and slipped from her upright position against the sofa and onto the stone floor. A booming laugh erupted from the fourth years, with Alicia joining in when she realized what happened. They quickly went to their respective beds for the night. The warm and familiar feeling was too good to last.

           The night that Ginny Weasley was taken into the Chamber of Secrets was one of the most frightening nights of the young wizards lives. The fourth year Gryffindor girls huddled together in the common room, crying quietly as they thought about the fate of the youngest Weasley, for their best friends losing their sister, and fear what was to happen next. It didn’t take long for anybody to notice that Harry Potter and Ron Weasley were nowhere to be found, chaos ensued. Neville shakily found his way next to Y/N, crying for his friends and shaking like a leaf. It was a long night- but, emerging out of the depths of the school the following morning came the best whirlwind of news. Ginny, Harry, Ron and Professor Lockhart all were safe and sound, having escaped the Chamber. Rumors abounded, how they escaped, the battle that was fought, others dismissing it completely. Y/N was just happy to have the younger Gryffindor’s back, to see the relief on the Weasley’s faces, and hope for a better year to come… it could hardly be worse- right?

Sweet days in my life at UVA

[mimii-is-studying]

You are not your grades (surprise!!)

Your intelligence, hard work and skilss arent defined by a bunch of numbers.

Lets begin with understanding the exam dynamics there are hundreds of different systems in high school and when it comes to uni it really depend on the doctor how they structure it. Some may depend only on recall exams (like my system) some may depend on critical thinking and guess what they’re all just skills needed to be acquired!! If you’ve got the knowledge without the skill or vice versa you may not preform like you’ve expected.

Along with the fact that going through personal issues may affect your grades, the amount you sleep and how well you’re hydrated actually matter and affect your performance. Lets not start about mental block, if the exam room isn’t quiet enough and actually the exam level itself.

After all of that, do you really think it’s about how smart you are? This define all of your skills? Your capabilities?

You’re definitely not your grades.
