hows bouts my work

This shot shows the progress of the project. The timeframe was around 30 minutes for the project and the objective of the assignment was to convey a thought or idea with simple use of text/color/placement. The idea was to convey the slogan "taste the rainbow" used by the candy Skittles in advertisements, often displaying a rainbow and the candy product. I wanted every element to be essential, without one, the piece wouldn't make sense.

Done in Photoshop CS3

pictures worth no words

This is something I did a while ago, but never got around to hosting it on flickr or anywhere on the internet for that matter. It was a typography poster for a certain candy company I did for fun (you'll never guess which one.)

"Skittles"

I thought this worked particularly well because if you subtract the text from the image, the viewer has no idea of what it's about, and if you do the same for the rainbow gradient, and leave the text, it makes no sense.

array

To categorize the stuff in my portfolio, I think it'd work best to label and group them together for destined output, or perhaps genre. ie: logos, photography, images. Or perhaps output, web/print. I can think of a few ideas:

Imaging: To showcase images for ads, posters, misc. print, etc.

Logos: vector and raster logos

web: UI's, homepages

photography: to share my hobby as well as secondary freelance career

portfolio work

I have a lot of items that I am going to most likely put into my portfolio, for my own sake, I'm going to include a link to the items for viewing. All of the items on the 1st and second page will be on my portfolio.
