Tuition Guide: Changed the year, added new classes offered, removed unique #s, and moved the “last updated…” We want to possibly add “Registration begins April 8th” and “summer.utexas.edu”
Summer Course Banner: Still in the brainstorming stage, but leaning toward this layout:
Project: Summer Marketing
Client: LAITS
Staff guidance: De’sha
Description/plans: We Finalized the design for the Fall Postcard, GPC Desktop Monitor, and Digital Display. I also began editing the Tution Guide PDF.
Fall Postcard
GPC Desktop Screensavers
Digital Display
Project: Summer Marketing
Client: LAITS
Staff guidance: De’sha
Description/plans: Right now we are designing the Fall Postcard that will be mailed out to students’ permanent (home) addresses to get them to start thinking about their summer plans (aka taking an online summer course with LAITS)!
After our Summer Marketing meeting, we determined #4 as our strongest design, but we will continue workshopping #1 to potentially have another strong option.
This week De’sha shared her passion project with us! De’sha is very well-spoken and inspirational when she speaks about her passion project DEFINE. It was nice to hear someone tell us how they found a project that also aligned with their skills and passions.
We started to explore a more whimsical appearance to the Fall postcards with colorful lines wrapping around the UT tower. The second version was generally liked, so I’ll just be making edits/adjustments to the design to make it stronger.
Drumroll please…. presenting the completed custom course graphic design menu! Earlier in the semester I was assigned to a custom course graphic task but I didn’t have much experience with it. Afterward, I decided to complete this training so that the next time I have a similar task, I’ll be well prepared.
2023 Caricature
I was inspired by Lorena to update my caricature for 2023! Although not much has changed about me, I like this outfit more because purple is my favorite color! I also updated my hair (a very minor change but it makes a difference to me!)
I created flashcards with basic Photoshop skills as well as learned how to tie iconography, color, text, and layout in a cohesive manner. I used icons, color schemes, Google Translate, and Photoshop layers/grids to create flashcards.

Cleaned up the last iteration because some of the edges looked ‘crunchy’.
This week we gave short presentations about passion projects we do outside of work. I liked hearing everyone talk about their projects and the stage of development they were in. I talked about building my portfolio and how/what work will best represent me as an artist. I received helpful insight from Carrie and Adriana about their experience with websites/portfolio building. Talking about it made me feel more excited to start developing my website, as well as making me feel the expectations of people around me to get started so that I can show my progress.
