Zacree Cobos: Part III
Once I got the logo put together, it was a lot easier for me to understand what feel I was trying to reach. The idea is that whatever shirt* the customer creates with their own style and personal touch*; is great enough to be framed* and appreciated. The colors I used were to reflect on the fresh and unique direction I was trying to go towards during the beginning, I feel like teal was always a more unique color. The fingerprint started becoming the main visual asset and the focus around what makes the product truly theres. The tags have blanks for the customer to put their name and fingerprint to make their shirt personally authenticated. After the customer gets their shirt and customizes their tag, they then can take a picture behind the iconic frame. They will then be part of the stores growing collection, and be displayed for every new customer.

[ Wendy ] Midterm Assessment
I'm really enjoying the class overall. It's exciting working on a topic that really suits me and being able to talk with Melaney at Subterranean is very helpful. It fits me, but I think it will definitely push me and challenge me. Branding isn't something that particularly excites me. I am having a bit of a struggle getting concepts off the ground since the space is much more about the ideas rather than the form. So I'm just trying to relearn my design process by thinking simply and having fun (and asking myself what J. Gray would make me do). I'm optimistic though—I think it'll be a huge addition to my portfolio.

So far this class has been exciting and I am really looking forward to phase three of the project. I feel that up to this point my work has kind of been all over the place because I was struggling to find a few concepts to narrow in on. But now I like the directions that I'm exploring and having fun. Something that I think has been both my strength and weakness is that I am always open to looking for new ideas and paths to wonder down. It helps when I am trying to find some aspect about comics that I really want to push but also makes me take a few steps back in my process each time. Branding is something that I am really interested in pursuing after school so I want to make sure that I take my time with this class and get it right.
[Anna De Sando] midterm self-reflection.
Re-branding/branding is a totally different field of design than I'm semi-comfortable with. I've been struggling a lot mentally with the further developing of ideas. I think I know verbally + example wise of how/where I want to continue to go, but the actual creating + visually developing is what I am really struggle at. I have definitely been moving at a slower than recommended pace but I am pretty confident that I should be able to swing back into where I need to be soon. I think that I also need to try to really delve more into the visuals of the Fringe Festival, examples of the acts that the other festivals are doing. Even though my classmates keep making comments about how my logos have and have not been representing the event, most of them too have never been to the festival. So, I need to get better informed to figure out when their feedback and comments is helping and when it's hindering. But overall I am definitely in a much better place than I could have been a week or two ago.
