brief: ceasefire was in an class assignment for my typography for new media class. the teacher basically just gave us the required text and we had to design a magazine ad based on the text. my first thought was to incorpoarate a gun because of the subject of the text. but seeing as my peers were also doing stuff with guns, i opted for a new design. it then hit me, to take the result from a gun of someone being shot, blood splatter. the design of the ad is quite simple. using the blood splatter, i then had the word killed emphasized in white in the blood splatter.

brief: cias was a project for my typography for new media class where we actually dealt with a real client. the client being the college of imaging arts and science. basically, what they wanted was a poster that they could take to high schools to promote the college. outlining this project, i knew that i had to get all the schools that the college makes up. after going through multiple design comps, the one you see now was composed during a class i was in, bored to death. i first took a stock image of the college and essentially gave it a grunge kind of texture. it then made perfect sense that the schools would be clouds. my teacher, took it as the college pumping out schools, which i thought was cool.
