Internship Journal Entry #7

I personally didn’t really attend any events, but I did get to have lunch with some of my coworkers that worked in Web design, and Social media. When interacting with them I got to know a Lady named Jenny which worked with the other Web Designers. Jenny always gave me feedback and helped me when I first started working at NYC Restaurant. When it came to any questions regarding a client, she always provided any new information I needed for a certain project.

By getting to know her I learned that she’s bilingual and loves to talk to everyone. She’s a very friendly and loves to help the Social Design coworkers. They usually need help editing images as well as how to use certain programs. So they always talk to her regarding their issues and Jenny quickly helps them. Hopefully in the near future I’ll be as comfortable at communicating with my future coworkers just like her.

Internship Journal Entry #6

When I finished the internship I felt like I did great work that all of the clients enjoyed. The project that I felt I did a lot of great work would be the Sahag projects. I had the chance to work first hand with the clients and got to know them. Also they gave me a lot of feedback that helped me finish the work quickly which was later reviewed by the client. I believe that the feedback I got from everyone helped my work stand out and made the clients enjoy my work. My supervisor pushed me to interact more with the clients, which made working a lot less complicated. By doing the Sahag project I got to edit a lot of images that I was provided with by the clients. At the end of the internship I believe that interacting with clients and my coworkers I got to be more comfortable with speaking. It made working in NYC Restaurant a lot more rewarding.

Internship Journal Entry #5

I arrived to work and my supervisor informed me of a project that revolved around a client that wanted a brochure of his Italian restaurants. The restaurant are called La carbonara, Luna Piena, Intermezzo, Maria Pia, and Cara Pia and they all do Italian Catering. Each restaurant had to be included in the brochure. I also included an image of the owner of all the restaurants and I made sure to add a small description. When it came to designing the menu itself I used bold fonts and San-serif fonts. I wanted the brochure to be straight forward and very legible. Also I used lines to made a border for each food section, which made the design stand out more. This project I got to work with my supervisor and some of my coworkers. They provided the images and they edited them as well, which they send once they were done with it. It was interesting working with other people because it made things a lot less complicated.

Internship Journal Entry #4 part 4

The day started off with my supervisor giving me two business card to design for 2 different clients. The first one I was working on was on a client that made Jewelry and she wanted a diamond in the middle. When making the business card I thought about the fonts  which she wanted it to be elegant and simple. I picked a script type font and san serif font that went well with the script type font. The bottom section that included her name, phone, email I used a light San serif font that went well with the top part. When the client viewed the business card she personally liked it and wanted me to change the Diamond, because it used to be blue.

The second business card I worked with was on luxury rides and my supervisor gave me a n old business that I had to redesign. The old business card had was very confusing, and it had a lot of 3D type which made the business card hard to look at. So I made a car logo with lines and made the logo type bold, which went well with the line art. In the back I added the logos of the vehicles that Luxury Rides 007 offered, and added his information in the bottom.
