I was approached a while ago (maybe sometime in September 08) about helping out with some of the graphics and other technical work for the Black Student Marching Band, an ambitious organization spearheaded by an associate of mine who’s main aim is to bring a show style band to Eastern Michigan University. Up until now the organization has mostly been in the planning and bureaucratic stages but as time goes more and more projects are begininng to get the green light. The task of branding the group with a visual identity was given to me. The was able to articulate their vision for what direction they wanted me to go in for the logo using words like “royal” and “seal”. The information i got from them helped inform my research and inspiration. This was a very rewarding project to work mainly because it grew from just a culmination of ideas and slowly and surely evolved into what it is now.
..They also asked me to be their webmaster and head the planning/dev/upkeep o their website which will be up very very soon ..its alot of work but its a honor to be apart of.
and that’s just one of few other huge projects that im involved with as the school year rapidly approaches…yay me
