The professor allowed the student who has internship can coming to class later at 10 o’clock. I’m lucky, and I can sleep 30 more minutes in the morning. The weather is getting cold, and it’s difficult to leave my bed.

I got a new client on my internship, but this time I was working with my workmate, the project is about doing a series of progress for the third art exhibition for faculty. The name of the project called bearing witness. We are working on the logo at first, and logo that my workmate did was picked. So, we started working on more at this progress. I was working on the poster for them, and my workmate is working for eblast. It’s a big project. And, after we finished above items, we still waiting for more information on it.

There is the poster for Bearing Witness.

Last calling for the student who doesn’t have an internship. The professor talked with me about my internship experience, and I told her that it’s helpful and internship. My workmates are great, and always help me fix the problem that I have. I answered one by one question that she asked. And then, I started with my class project.

There is a lot of works in my internshipon this week. WAC progress hoped me can help them do the latest one workshop poster, web banner, and a bookmark. I spent a lot of time on bookmark because I’m no idea with it. So, I try to research online and talk with my workmate, tried to do the draft, keep the change and change again. Finally, done with it.

There are the latest poster, web-banner, and bookmark.

I don’t go to class for this week because of the HARD COLD.

Stay at home, and try to catch up my clients on my internship, the client on Air progress sent me the new date and information about the new workshop, and I try to keep the same layout as before and finished the first draft for them. The client is confused about the color of the headline, because of I was using the oranger before, and she hoped me can change to blue, and I tried different blue for her. Finally, we have done for this one before it posts to the online website

80% of classmates still looking for the internship, and I was working on my portfolio and resume. I changed colors of my resume, deleted red and instead of using mint green. The new color looks nice and makes it more clear than before. So, I like it. Thank for Professor gave me the suggestion.

On internship, I need to start my second poster for WAC progress, because they have different workshop event in every month. Now, the new workshop called Avoiding Plagiarism, it’s also for faculty and staff to participate. For Air progress, I was done with the first event and still waiting for the new event come out.

 

There is the new look of my resume and the new poster for WAC progress.

Today, the class taught us how to find an internship, and how to create a good portfolio, resume and cover letter. I was finished those on summer, and my portfolio is not good because I just put them into one by one individual piece. Now, Professor taught me how to design their as a PDF book, and make sure my artworks are mock-up.

On my internship, I was working on Air program and WAC program, the clients asked me to do the poster for them, because they want to make sure faculty in the school can see those workshops are shown up, and they can schedule their time to participate in the workshop.

 

There is two posters that I worked for my clients.
