Yep, I have an opinion

Recently I wrote an opinion piece for SCAD Myriad. A family matter happened during the early part of the "supposed to be last" quarter. Unfortunately SCAD does not have a real policy for those who do go through a Family Emergency. Thankfully two of my professors were understanding and gave me time to catch up. The other professor was not as understanding, so now I am in my "supposed to be last quarter" again. Only two classes (I am quite spoiled by just two classes now). Oh and while I only need one class, taking two classes is better financially.

SCAD is a great school, it like any other place just needs to improve in some policies that it lacks.

Sequential Art Assignment F: Comic Book

Final Project for Intro to Sequential Art!

One of my projects from SCAD.

Project from Intro to Sequential Art Class. Inanimate object brought to life. I actually got a bit of therapy while drawing the tragic beer bottle. Why a beer bottle? Really couldn't think of anything, then I remembered this beer poncho that I saw at a friend's housewarming party (the party is not related to this at all, if you know me, you know I avoid parties fueled by alcohol). So this is a result.

Recently I had a mini photoshoot with my friend Jennie Thunell. Actually, I was supposed to meet someone for coffee that day, and for whatever reason it didn't work out. That was one of many cancellations that week. So instead I spent some time at North Shore Park walking with my friends Jennie and Molly :) So really it worked out well.
Here is one of the pictures.

Jennie is a great photographer, you can find her website at:

Back from the Fall

Fall quarter is finished, so now it's a vacation until the Winter quarter. Could have done better grade wise, but I was actually sort of happy that the letter grades made up one of my most favorite networks.

It was a busy quarter along with my three classes, I did ad building, worked a bit with Myriad (SCAD eLearning blog), and the biggest project was probably the work I did with a group of students from SCAD (Go Team Mishap!). We worked on a game for the Independent Game Festival. Currently it's a first level with plans of completion in 2011.

You can find the first level of our game Julia's Magnificent Mishap here: http://www.juliasmagnificentmishap.com/game.html

One of my new favorite songs from Coldplay!

Sightings of Elvis and Christmas lights and I am loving the old worn style of the set.

New Classes!

This Monday I start my new classes for Fall quarter. It's a bit of an assortment. I have classes C++ Programming, Creative Copywriting, and 3D Graphics. The latter two classes are a bit of a return to my original degree, so I am looking forward to learning more.
I could always find a career as a Graphic Designer in Gaming.
