Junior Achievement of Central Pennsylvania 

presents the "Go Green" Gala Event

The long awaited JA postcard. This series of material has been the bulk of my work so far this semester. When they first presented the project, we weren't sure how to take the idea of "Go Green" being the theme for such a classy upscale event. I feel like this has a good combination of both. My idea was to use the black tie attire and combine random green leaves in an unexpected way. This way you understand that it is still an upscale event, yet you're going green in a fashionable way. I have a few other items coming, including the poster and the invitation package. I present to the client on Tuesday, so I'll let you know how it all goes.

It's a safety dance.

Type in motion. Using the lyrics of a song to make a motion video that fits the style of the song. Oh how I love the Safety Dance.

Ps if this doesn't work, try it out on youtube here.

This class is a 3 hour elective that is basically sophomore level learning. The best part: when you already know the program and can play in class to make something like this. To make it even better, I still have 2 weeks left to finish this. I have no idea what else I'm going to do, but its fun exploring.

Wobblers

New Wobblers at Sheetz!
I successfully finished my internship at Sheetz and look what I have to show for it. I helped out with a lot of the M-T-Go materials for Sheetz. They asked me to create New wobblers, including shape and size and colors. All they gave me was the info to include and they chose this.
I must say I freaked out a bit when I saw it in stores.. one of those "OH MY GOSH I MADE THAT" type of things. I also did a lot of the boring nutrition facts for some of these items too but I am quite proud of this little number here. (Small but mighty).
If you go to Sheetz, check the M-T-Go stands for these nifty little things.

Here We Go Again...

A little update on my personal logo.

Heading into my Senior year, we were asked to update our personal logos so we have fresh look at our sophomore project. I'm really fond of the thin fonts right now and I think this works well in combination with the meaning of the logo, and the large shape of the bubble.

This project starts off lots of new ones, so keep a look out for new projects. I'll most likely be posting in the next few weeks to get my Junior Achievement project that has really opened up this past week.

Old Time Sippin' Whiskey

FINAL PROJECT for PACKAGING!
(can you tell i'm slightly excited?)

For A.J. Jenkins Kentucky Straight Bourbon, the packaging must meet high standards. This old time sippin’ whiskey comes from a company whose bottles are timeless and their distilling process is rare. Targeting men, usually above the age of the 30, this old classic label gives the satisfaction of a good whiskey reminiscent of the 1800s. The ribbon is tightly wrapped around the bottle, attached with a personalized wax seal. On the shelf, this bottle would show the craftsmanship of a classic, enhancing a consumer’s likeliness to purchase a newer brand that engages all the values of the aged whiskey. As a brand, A.J. Jenkins stands true to their traditions by selling their old family brewed whiskey in a new market, with a modern outlook. This packaging project became a success when the label shape took place and the research of the classic bottles was introduced. When packaging this whiskey, the bottle would be much more personalized to the shape of A.J. Jenkins and reproduced with the hand crafted seal of every bottle.
