Ciceri

Hey everybody, my name is Rebecca! I am in my third year of college and my second year as a Communication Design student. I'm really interested in advertising and hope to become a creative director at an ad agency in the future. Currently my favorite campaign is the, "It's not Complicated," series from AT&T by BBDO, which you can read about here.

For the type related portion of this post I'm going to post a kinetic typography video of Lt Aldo Raine's speech in Inglorious Bastards. Because I think kinetic type is awesome and this video is awesome.

Rodriguez - Introductions

Hi!
I'm Maggie and this'll be my 4th year at Texas State studying ComDes. Fun fact: I'm the 8th of 9 children and also the 5th one in my family to come to school here.

Here's a branding studio from Austin who's work I really love (http://sputnikcreative.com/).
And here's a little pretzel type piece I did for fun (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=4686940222176&set=a.2759650561139.2115151.1554030234&type=3&theater).

Beavers-Introductions

Hey, I am Austin a Photography & Comm Design at Texas State University. During Spring semester 2013 I worked on a project for the festival Ham Days, I wanted to keep to the original county fair style poster (ham days). While, I am not in school i'll either have a camera, computer mouse, or disc in my hand. Playing Disc golf is my way of relaxing and getting some sun. Heres a link to the Professional Disc Golf Association theres some great resources for getting to know the game. 

See you in Class 

Voll- Introductions

Hey ya'll,
My name is Tara, this year will be my 6th year in college and last year before I graduate :) Something I'm interested in and aspire to be as good as someday is Nikko Hurtado's tattoo portraits. They're so incredible, and he does a lot of standard to fish eye portraits with high contrast color.. which is one of my favorite looks and am working to have more diverse work.

I don't have a link to any of my own work at the moments, so here is a link to David Carson's piece, 'Trek'. I find it also very inspiring, and something to reach to.

Newton: Introductions

I'll go first.

Hey, I'm Rose, this is my 7th year teaching at Texas State. Something interesting about myself. I've been to 4 Disney Parks around the world... Disneyland, DisneyWorld, DisneylandParis and most recently DisneylandTokyo (Disney Parks wiki). I really don't LOVE Disney or anything. It's part of some design research I've begun with a colleague from Arkansas State about American Design in other countries.

Here's a link to a project my TYPE III class did. It recently was featured on a TedX talk. http://www.grafikintervention.com/
