Back to School

After looking at several schools, and going to three for interviews, I’m officially enrolled at Chatham College in Pittsburgh. I’ll be earning my MFA in Film and Digital Technology, which is offered for the first time this year. Our graphic design program was only about two years in when I started, so I suppose I have some experience as an academic guinea pig. I’ll be taking traditional film classes, but there’s also a lot of focus on creating video and animations for the web, and using different media.

I’ve only been out of college for 8 months, but it’s still going to be tough getting back into that collegiate mindset. Should be an interesting experience.

Intercollegiate Show

One of my designs was accepted into California’s annual Intercollegiate show. I made this CD design for a class project, and can’t tell you how many hours I spent on all the beading and fishnets in Illustrator. The back and CD itself are also custom illustrations, and I feel the whole project was worth the incredibly late nights working on them. I didn’t win anything at the show, but someone did purchase the framed print. It’s an honor just to be nominated, right?
