Simon
I am continuing to add assignments from last semester. This time, it is the Simon game I made for Interactive Multimedia. Check it out and play! I had to hum all the sounds. 
Also, a roundup of all the assignments from that class can be found here.

Personal Identity
I’m finally getting around to posting some stuff from last semester. This was my Personal Identity assignment for Design Principles and Strategies. I came up with a logo design, which incorporates the A and W in my initials. After that, I had a little fun.
Here is the entire identity package, which includes the logo, variations on the logo, business cards, and letterhead.

Ooops!
Hey, look! I broke my blog. I accidentally deleted my theme so I need to rebuild it. Oh well, I was planning on a redesign anyway. Hopefully I’ll have it fixed soon!

Branding Assignment – Ronzoni Pasta
For this assignment, we were to create an identity for a company or line of products. After searching for products, I finally settled on pasta.
Looking at the pasta at the supermarket, a few stood out a bit, particularly Via Roma. My goal was for my design to stand apart when seen among the others on the shelf. To do this, I went for a fun but elegant design.
I chose Ronzoni because it has a particularly generic design. At the store, it was right next to Barilla, and I didn’t even notice it. I designed the entire box of linguine.
I expanded the brand out to sauces as well:
And finally, the linguine box fully assembled:
I feel that this design is pretty unique, and draws your attention from other similar brands.

Assignment 4 – Poetry Corner
First post in a long while! Anyway this is the 4th assignment for my Interactive Multimedia class: a random haiku generator! I added a beatnik and a dude playing the bass, but I never got the sound working… I’ll probably add that eventually!

Assignment 6 – Rough Draft
For Assignment 6, we had to design a web site for some kind of product or service. I chose a lawn care service. Feedback was mostly positive, but I have a few more tweaks.

Assignment 5
For assignment 5, we were supposed to create an instructional booklet on a topic that does not usually require instruction. So of course, I chose “How to Enjoy Beer.”
My original concept was “How to Survive a Zombie Attack.” Eventually, however, I decided that the topic had been done to death, and much better than I could ever. I am not a huge expert on Zombie movies, and they say write what you know, so of course I chose to write about beer!
I think the design turned out better than my original Zombie booklet design, also.
