Get out the Vote

his is was done very last minute and submitted 1 hour before the deadline and it's not quite where I wanted it to be. Ironically I can't vote this election, but everyone in the US that can should, so I'm all for a good cause. I tested it on a 7 year old who assured me she can read the word "vote" and was in turn very surprised that I couldn't, especially since I drew it! :)

Colors look really odd on the AIGA website, I wonder why.

Sketch/ in progress

Hi Zeus Jones! Thanks for reviewing my homework!

The rise of smart TV and the internet has changed the way we think of television. However, one thing that has not changed is Comcast’s reputation for bad service and low starting rates accompanied by hidden fees. Digital services such as Hulu and Netflix offer movies and TV without complicated experiences and installation, causing people to forgo cable all together. The tech savvy generation does not want to wait for the cable guy, speak to a representative to change services, or haggle over complimentary premium channels and gift cards.

In order for Comcast to gain back customer trust in this competitive digital age, they need to streamline their services and simplify the experience. All services are provided via the internet, yet they choose to treat it as three separate options rather than a main customizable one. All information is streamed over the cable, but customers are forced to use a cable box that can easily be replaced by a computer or any other device most users own. Instead, they should offer a basic service with a default package, having the option to upgrade where needed. Given this flexibility, users that currently chose to forgo expensive premium packages might be interested in signing up for specific services, such as individual episodes or shows.

Their current service is full of unnecessary information and repetition, with complicated packages and services that could be simplified. The following is an overview of a simpler experience, that could be implemented in a variety of ways from direct mail to website layout.

Moo Sample pack

Granted my Moo sample pack could've been put to better use than testing out colors, but it was fun. Nice paper thickness, the printing quality is better than most online places, but still no offset. The upside is I finally have a logo for keeps, even if I can never commit to one color. How can you when they are all so pretty? Next up: photo postcards!

We are the sum of our experiences

A map/promo card, I've been working on tracing back different experiences gathered in the places I've lived.

The experiences relate to art, as otherwise it would be a much more complex project.

They were looking for fun, hip and colorful.

Urban Forest Project, DC

I don't get involved in community projects as often as I'd like. This is my second time with the Urban Forest project and they even did a little interview with me. I was terribly nervous and I just love a camera 10" in front of my face, but I made it through and met some cool people. Video editing is pretty useful, otherwise who knows how this would've turned out. Thanks to Joe Carabeo, who is super fun to work with, for not making me sound like a complete babbling idiot. So watch the video, but be warned in real life I cannot be edited - unfortunately.

The Urban Forest website for DC is finally up.
Bad quality of the image on the website so here it is here again. Go to the Urban Forest website
