25 Years of the Empty Bowls Project Museum Exhibit

For this event my partner Amanda Hengst and I were given the privilege to work with the wonderful people at Empty Bowls. We were given the task of designing the signs for the 25 year anniversary museum exhibit. As a community project to help fight hunger, the logo and brand identity has been flexible over the last 25 years. Without a solid logo Amanda and I created a new banner illustration and logo to represent Empty Bowls and their 25 year celebration. Along with creating the banners and logo Amanda and I organized the 25 years worth of information and photos into signs and sections to be placed throughout the Culinary Arts Museum.

Iggy’s Re-Branding The goal of this assignment was to pick a restaurant and create a complete re-branding for it, with a new target audience in mind. I decided to re-brand Iggy’s, specifically the Iggy’s in Warwick, RI. The Iggy’s in Warwick is right by the beach. I wanted to use the location and integrate it into the brand in a new way. The goal was for Iggy’s to be seen as a seaside, upscale, sit down restaurant. I accomplished this by creating a new logo and menu, that are simple elegant and clean. I also created new take home glass chowder containers to match the new brand.

Little B’s BBQ

Working with the people from Little B’s BBQ was a great experience. The owners, Jessica and Peter, were just starting out and needed some menus and T shirts for the grand opening of their mobile smokehouse. I worked with the clients to create a easy to read, effective rack card menu. Since they will be running a mobile smokehouse a rack card size menu worked great. It is easy to hand out to customers, which helps to spread the word of their growing business. The backside of the menu also provided a great area to inform customers of other important information. Such as catering options, the local vendors supported by Little B’s BBQ, social media contact information, as well as the shirts they have for sale. The designed T shirts not only served as an item for sale, they also served as a uniform for the owners and workers.

Limelights Theater on Ice This logo is a freelance design for the Limelights Skating Team. The team if from the Norfolk Frost Skating Arena, in Massachusetts. They asked me to create a design that help represents the theater side of their staking. In order to give the feeling of a theater, I made a show curtain to contain all of the type. I also added a spot light to go with the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name. After the logo was completed, the design was also used to create jackets for all the skaters.

Popcorn

The Popcorn project was assigned as a challenge to create a new brand and product from the ground up. For my popcorn brand I created Positively Popping. The point of Positively Popping is for customers to choose a flavor that relates to a feeling that they are either feeling or may be lacking. The three flavors produced were Honey Hope, Caramel Confidence, and Kettle Corn Kindness. The brand is meant to be lighthearted and fun. I accomplished this goal by matching the flavors with a bright identity color that would each work well with the unique logo. I also wanted the brand to stand out from other popcorn brands with clear resalable containers.

A Right Delayed Is A Right Denied This project was assigned during my motion graphic course. I had to pick a topic and create a info-graphic around it. The topic of my choice was marriage equality. I decided to focus on a topic that I felt needs to be supported, which was my goal through my design work and final product. After my poster was completed I then had to turn my poster into a motion graphic video, and uploaded it to You Tube. My finished video contains many moving vector images and typography that helps support the fact that marriage equality is a human right. Video URL: https://youtu.be/-NHWMBWGcTA

When working with Shalmar Eyes & Optics on this postcard the goal was to create an eye catching design that had modern elements but also emphasized the current specials that were being offered. A challenge with designing this postcard was the amount of content that needed to be featured on the card. Along with the general information and the specials being offered all of the available brands needed to be listed as well. I wanted to avoid listing the available brands in a standard list, instead worked the brands into the design by wrapping them around the border of the postcard. Lastly it was very important to the owner to use red and yellow to draw attention to the specials. I used the yellow as a background to make the specials stand out as their own items. While still keeping the font consistent so the specials didn’t feel too different from the rest of the design.

tells us how much we have left to read. That helps explain why Benedetto has found that “scrolling impairs the spatial memory”, making it more difficult to find your way around a text. However, as Campbell, says, we’ve learnt how to create cognitive maps unconsciously, through years of reading, and it could be that people raised on ereaders simply won’t rely on the same cues and will instead use searchable keywords and toolbar data to navigate around. This might actually be more efficient. A whole other area of research concerns motivation. One of the recurrent concerns of the internet age is that children are reading less. But there is some evidence that, used wisely, ereaders could encourage more reading. Campbell, for instance, points to a large National Literacy Trust survey last year, which found that children read more when using ereaders than paper books. She thinks the main reason for this is that it is small, light and portable, and you can pull it out at odd moments, such as “when waiting for the bus to arrive”. Ereaders also have the advantage that, from the outside, it’s impossible to see whether someone is reading the latest teen vampire romance or a primer on differential calculus. “You could study surreptitiously,” says Campbell, giving examples of people using their readers in hairdressers or even at work. This reflects an aspect of reading we are all aware of but are often reluctant to admit. The book in your hand or on your coffee table is a public statement about who you are. Ereaders are, therefore, useful in getting over concerns with image and providing a kind of licence for us to follow our curiosity and interests more.

Editorial Design

For this project I was asked to select an article of my choosing and create an editorial design for it. I chose the article titled “EBooks VS Paper” by: Julian Baggini. For this editorial I wanted the overall design to be clean and structured. I accomplished this by keeping a strong grid and my color scheme to black and white. For the images in the editorial I wanted to incorporate some photography of the two topics at hand. I photographed close ups of the books to capture details in the bindings and simple black hard backs. For the photos of the E reader I really If used smartly, ereaders could provide a huge help wanted to many, as evidencedto by capture the digital screen to showcase how reading from a device looks. Over all I the title of one recent study by a Harvard team led by Matthew Schneps: wanted the photos to help being a visual for the subject matter of the article, while also fitting my theme and design.

Sylvia Plath Quote Poster

This poster was created during my free time. I enjoy creating pieces that tie into my other interests. I really enjoy reading, and this poster shows how two of my interests can be connected. I also really admire Sylvia Plathâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quote from the Bell Jar used in the poster. It really inspires me within my design and helps give me a boost of confidence within my work. I am really happy with how this piece came out.

North American Crane and Rigging Due to an upcoming trade show, North American Crane and Rigging needed a booklet to hand out that showcased not only what they offered but also what they valued as a company. This booklet mainly focuses on getting to know North American Crane as a company with information such as their mission statement and their safety regulations. The booklet then breaks off into sections describing the different types of cranes that are offered as well as some amazing photos of them in action. Besides fitting in all of the necessary information, it was very important to incorporate the brand into every page. This branding consistency was very important to have at an event such as a trade show where many competing companies are present.

2014 Calendar

This calendar project was assigned to me as part of my print course. The objective was to design a personal 2014 calendar. I then had to print and assemble my calendar into a real working piece. For my concept, I chose a crafty design. I paired a complex color palette with a skinny typeface and fun yet simple, originally executed vector images. The main feature of the calendar is the owl vector image that is partnered up with a wisdom quote from a Lumineerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s song. The owl is an original image I had fun creating to go along with the quote. My main goal was to create a fun light hearted calendar design that would appeal to young women.

Confreda Farm For this project I worked with the owner from Confreda Farm. He wanted to send out a EDDM mailer that included coupons. For this design I chose some imagery that was very colorful but also emphasized one of Confreda Farm’s main focus points, freshness. Along with promoting their fresh produce they also wanted to draw attention to the products they had for sale. I kept the text very short and straight to the point. This is very important to keep in mind when designing any type of promotional mailing, due to the fact that you only have a few seconds to catch the eye of whoever is receiving the mailing. The more eye catching and easier the mailing is to read the better the odds are that potential customers will follow the call to action. Which in this case is stopping by the farm to us the coupons.

Ramble On Tours Mobile First Website Design For this project my partner and I had to create a mobile first website for a hypothetical company named Ramble On Tours. This companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s objective is to take itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s customers on a unique cultural experience. The group flies out from Los Angeles to Vietnam where the group stays with locals for the three week trip. During their stay they become immersed in the community and help the citizens that have welcomed them into their homes. Our objective for the website was to create a quick responding mobile first website. At the same time the website had to still offer many uses to the individuals who are on tour along with their family members and users that are new to the site. The website offers an area for users to blog about their experience and connect to other social media. The website also includes the option of uploading photos from the trip to a slide show that has pin point mapping to track your travels. Along with all of these functions, individuals on the tour have their own personal logins, that their family members at home can follow. While new users can view the site as a guest and read testimonials from past travelers. New users can also see what the trips are like first hand, from constantly updated pictures taken by company tour guides during their trips.

The Scituate Art Festival is one of the largest local art festivals that takes place Columbus Day weekend every year. The festival gives local vendors the chance to set up a booth and display their work to the public. The representatives from the festival needed a few items. First was a rack card to hand out in preparation for the festival. This rack card included all general information for the festival as well as the line up for live performers and directions. Along with the rack card we also needed to produce lanyard identification cards for festival staff to wear. These cards included the festival logo as well as a staff description. The final piece needed was the booth number cards. These number cards are used as identification for the judges when rating the booths.

Zoo Way Finding The goal of this project was to create effective way finding for a public place. I decided to create way finding for a Southwickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Zoo. My way finding design consists of three colored paths that lead you through the zoo. Along each path are colored signs with illustrations of the animals that are around. Along with the way finding I designing a new app for the zoo. The app consists of a map of the entire zoo that displays where each colored path leads. By selecting animal areas on the map one can also see where animals are located. The app also provides interactive screens for parents to use with their children throughout their day at the zoo. These interactive screens provide information for each animal along with a video and a listening piece for children to hear. The goal of the way finding and interactive app is for children and parents to be able to explore the zoo easily while learning as much as possible during their visit.

The Village Tavern When speaking with the representatives from The Village Tavern they were in need of an updated wine / drink list with a new design. With quite a large list of drinks to choose from, we kept the design very simple and clean in order to keep the menu easy to read. I kept all cocktails listed on one side, while on the other I listed all wines, beers, and the house special sangria. I carried out the signature green from their logo throughout then menu’s layout and finished off the design with some drink photos to help distinguish the drink sections at a quick glance.

This is a poster I created in my free time. The lyrics shown are some of my favorite from the band Paramore. This poster could be viewed as a fan piece. The poster is a simple clean vector design that clearly displays the lyrics. I used many vibrant colors to match the songs upbeat style. All together everything ties together to give the poster a modern clean look.

STATE NAVIGANT POST 85

POST 85 American Legion - Post 85 I really enjoyed volunteering my time and services when working with the representatives from American Legion. The post 85 team was in need of a logo design to wear on their jerseys during their season. The logo had to include the name of their sponsor, which was Navigant. As well as the name / post of the team, Post 85. The team did great and went on to become State Champions. Once the state Championship was won I was more than happy to help assist the coach in making a state champions logo to be printed on shirts to hand out to all the kids. Along with the championship shirts I also created a state champs banner that was to be displayed at the Post 85 Location.

Jaime L. Cafﬁn - Accounting Johnson & Wales Senior Award Ceremony Michelle A. Pinto - Entrepreneurship Matthew M. Ross - FinanceThe idea behind this project was to create four posters for the graduating senior award ceremony of 2014. Each school, Technology, Culinary, Business, and Hospitality, had to have its Li-Shiue Inn - Equine ownJustice poster. The real challenge of the project was to give each school their own unique poster Matthew E. Morgan - Criminal yet keep them all similar enough to look like a set. Since it is an award ceremony that is very Jason M. Hubbard - Risk Management important to the students I wanted to keep the school colors within every poster. I gave each poster its own unique look by designating different shapes for each school. The school colors and simple complementing shapes also help make the four posters look like a cohesive set.

Ocean State Baptist Church For this design job I worked with the representatives from Ocean State Baptist Church. They informed me that they hold many large event throughout the year and they needed a way for visitors to recognize the staff that was available to assist them. We came to an agreement that lanyards with lanyard cards would be a great solution. The church wanted to stick with a nautical theme while also keeping the lanyard cards generic enough that they could be reused for many events. In this design I incorporated blues that matched and were similar to their logo. I also included an anchor to match the one in their logo. As for the text, I kept it very general so these cards could be reused very easily. Finally to help the lanyard cards last for many events, these were printed on a plastic like 10 mil. synaps which holds up against bending, water, and is tear resistant.

Operation Migration Desktop Calendars For this project I volunteered my time design work to help the Operation Migration cause. I worked with Heather Ray, a representative from Operation Migration, to design and size computer desktop calendar photos. These desk top calendar photos are sent out to the individuals who donated throughout the year as a thank you for their support. Heather sent me the photos the photographer took on their travels. I used those photos and sized them to the proper desktop screen sizes. I also designed the calendar layouts and incorporated the Operation Migration water mark logos.

Minuteman Press As the designer at Minuteman Press it was my job to put together and handle the production of some new staff t-shirts. The design was to be fairly simple with the company logo as well as emphasizing the newest company slogan. I created two different variations of the shirt for the staff to wear. I also set up the color separations and sizing so the files would be ready for screen printing.

Lawn Maintenance For this project I worked with Mario, a officer who was working on starting his own part time lawn maintenance company. In order to start spreading the word of his services I designed some lawn signs. The design of these signs is very simple, which makes them very easy to read when driving by. I also designed some door tags for Mario. These are great for him to use while giving out estimates of either weekly or as needed service. He also has a blank area where he can leave custom estimates as well as any extra information needed.

Victory Supply & Roots and Shoots Victory Supply & Roots and Shoots are sister companies ran by a mother and son team. While Roots and Shoots is all about gardening and pre-made floral displays, Victory Supply is about landscaping from the simple to the extreme. For Victory Supply a brochure was needed. This brochure needed to list the vendors as well as the products available while adhering to the current branding. Roots and Shoots wanted to stand out with its own branding. The main focus of the design is the flowers. In order to accomplish this I used some photos to display some of the floral arrangements that are available and pulled the main colors used in the design from the flowers. The content for this rack card needed to inform viewers of the upcoming calendar events as well as the top ten reasons for customers to keep up with Roots and Shoots on their Facebook page.

Boulder, Colorado Farmers Fest The goal of this project was to pick a state and brand an event. I chose Boulder, Colorado and branded a Farmers Fest. I wanted Boulder, Coloradoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Farmers Fest to be a fun family event. I chose to stick with warm earthy colors for the brand that show up on all event merchandise. I created a poster for the event, along with apparel and a event app. The apparel varies between shirts and reusable tote bags, all include some variation of the eventâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s logos. For the app I really wanted the customers to be able to interact with sellers and event activities in real time. The app includes an about section for the community to learn more about the food and farmers. The app also includes recipes, activity lists and a raffle page. Finally Farm Fest goers can communicate with each other and sellers through the real time discussion board and chat logs.
