Cal State LA's Fall Student Fest


Anybody reading this actually had a vacation during the summer?
For myself, although I didn't have a "relaxing" summer vacation, I did do a lot of legwork in graphic design.

Last June, I was lucky enough to be hired as a graphic designer on campus at the University-Student Union Graffix department. Since then, I've been able to do hands-on graphic design work from research to computer to print, and immerse myself in a network of designers/students such as myself. Not only is it fun, but it's a great way to build up my portfolio.

One of the projects I took on was a campaign for the upcoming Fall Student Fest on campus. By campaign, it meant designing everything from posters and t-shirts, down to buttons and dog tags. I had to create a design that would tie in the theme "I love CSULA," which would be used throughout the whole design campaign. It was challenging, but that was where all the fun was.
For those of you who are CSULA students, I hope you will enjoy the Fall Student Fest this coming Tuesday on the Student Union Walkway (11am - 2pm). I know I will!
