My first day as a Design STA consisted of learning about the day to day procedures and how to navigate the different websites and tools. I finished the day off with creating a few presentation slides documenting what I learned from the STA Handbook:
I came in with a nervous-excited energy that I always have when starting anything new. De’sha and Leilani made the experience feel very welcoming, and I know overtime I’ll grow comfortable and confident in this new position.
During the next few days of orientation I created an STA bio, a caricature of myself, and a banner for this blog:
So far, I’ve had fun getting to meet everyone and stretching my graphic design and illustration skills. I look forward to working on future projects on my STA journey!

Description: The client requested for a batch of course posters with the current templates tailored to the specific course, GER 382M – Textual-Cultural Studies: Politics and Practices. They wanted the flyers to include relevant photos assets along with a brief description of the course’s topics/information.
Since there no assets included in the materials provided, I searched for images in Pexels, Unsplash, and Pixabay and found three images that were relevant to the course based in its description.
Afterwards I chose one image and finalized the poster and screen ad.

Description: The client requested for a batch of course posters with the current templates tailored to the specific course, GER 322D – Conversation and Composition: Individuals and Society. They wanted the flyers to include relevant photos assets along with a brief description of the course’s topics/information.
I first looked at the courses description in the course schedule and used it to find images that were relevant to the class and found three images.
Then, I chose one image that better fit the description out of the three and created the flyer and screen ad.

In the assets provided, there an image and description of the course, so I cropped the image from the rest of the description and used it to create the flyer and screen ad.
