Life is still going well in my part of the woods, moving forward with my portfolio, working hard at school and at redpepper. I'm trying to focus on self promotion and researching future job opportunities. There is so much to consider, and what I send to potential employees will likely change based on who they are and the type of work they do. I'm working on a flash animation as a way to catch attention and drive people to my website (still under construction). I've been working on my resume, and designing business cards. I want to do something a little different and I found an idea through AIGA about recycling old Pantone swatch books and using them for business cards. Since you're suppossed to get new Pantone books every year (the color fades and doesn't remain true) I figure it's a great way to reuse a very job specific item as a promotion piece. Not to mention the fact that I can utilize all the great colors in the swatch book.
I'm currently home for my best friend's wedding this coming weekend. It's nice to have a change of scenery and see old friends and family. It came at a good time with Spring break starting next week so that I don't have to rush home. I'm hoping after the wedding festivities to get a lot of school work done next week. I'm also planing on taking lots of photos. I've had such an itch to go out and take photos with my film camera lately, so I bought some color film and snapped some on my drive through TN, GA and SC. Too bad it's rainy here today, or else I'd be out exploring all the great things around. I'm trying to make a sincere effort to be creative in other ways that have nothing to do with schoolwork, clients or deadlines. Let's hope the sun comes out soon.
