Final Process Book

I've uploaded my final process book for DesComm.

Check it out here.

Design Communication

This quarter, DesComm took on a life of its own. Rather than drilling us with hundereds of pages of sketches, the course took a more real-life approach and gave us projects that utilized knowledge that can be more helpful in the field. Don't get me wrong, I think that sketching is important, but one can't deny the fact that we as designers are moving more and more into the digital realm, and with our 3d software skills improving daily and new product like HyperShot coming out into the mainstream, I can't help but think that the trend will continue.

Winter Quarter 2009

Overall, I think this quarter went well. The sponsored studio was pretty good, although it was definitely tough changing my entire design in week 6-7. My other classes went well... can't complain. I think that my improvement over the course of the quarter can be attributed to DesComm; using underlays and learning Illustrator as a rendering tool were great.
Next quarter, I plan to focus more on moving from concept to reality with more speed and accuracy, as well as being more dilligent in the beginning of the term so that the rest of it goes smoother...
