Today marked the 2nd day of my personal internship in graphic design with Esente. Today was much more "design" focused in that the design interns split off from the others to focus on designing 12 separate posters to use for our upcoming Craigslist ad. So while I was focused on content creation for this ad yesterday, today I focused on the visual aspects of it. Overall this allows me to get a much bigger picture view of the project and will help in the upcoming days as we finish this project and get it sent off to publish.
For about an hour this morning we all round-tabled to get each others opinions on previous concepts that 2 of the other interns had created for the ad. By combining the best of all of our ideas we came up with a template that is both simple and visually pleasing. From their it was a simple task to take the template and fill in the blanks to get 12 different ad posters! Working in a group we could share design ideas, tool-tips for our design software, critique, etc… and overall it seemed like a great atmosphere to work in.
The office will be closed for the holiday so that should give me some time over the next few days to really let the design simmer. This coming monday I'll be able to attack it with fresh eyes.
Happy 4th and don't blow yourself up with fireworks… !
Stay classy San Diego
Mike
Design Intern
