Following on the heels of the Center for Discovery postcard, I did a little web maintenance/massaging of The IAEDP social website. They had the invitation on the web so I added navigation and some articles to the page. I also had to resize and massage the contents to a larger width.

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008Center for Discovery postcard
Monday, January 28th, 2008Sent to the printer yesterday is a postcard for the Center for Discovery. They are an adolescent treatment facility with multiple locations in Southern California. They are sponsoring a lecture for professionals who work with clients with eating disorders. They wanted an advertisement in a postcard form which kept the brand from their website. Here is the result:
Chinese New Year Part 2
Thursday, January 24th, 2008The flyer turned into an invitation. The cover now looks like this:
Chinese New Year Part 1
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008I was given the task of making a flyer with the Chinese New Year theme. I have never done this theme before. I am pretty excited about it.
First I read up on traditions and looked for appropriate imagery. I found the symbol for luck and for rat, since this is the year of the rat.
I wanted to draw a clever rat. Well, I’m not sure this guy is clever, but it made my son laugh when he saw it. Works for me.
Next I need to work on the page composition and message.
My big fat greek event
Monday, January 21st, 2008It’s time for the yearly school auction. Last year the theme was Margaritaville. It was held at the Greek Orthodox church so this year, since it will be at the Greek church again, the theme will be “My Big Fat Greek Auction” taking off from the “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” motif.
I actually started working on the design last summer when I was just messing around with ideas about this.
The whole package will include invitation, rsvp, raffle tickets, program, party book, thank yous, and whatever else is needed. We’re talking about a mural sized poster for advertising purposes.
Another Riverside reference
Tuesday, January 15th, 2008It’s time to design ITFMA conference brochures – this one will be for the conference in Riverside.
I like doing conference materials: brochures, invitations, programs, any kind of collateral. I like the theme element. I like the logic and order needed to convey large amounts of information.
