Buzz...Buzz...


Here's the first day of working on part of my Daft Punk booklet design.
Ill have to upload my thumbnails, and stuff my Advanced Design Production teacher approved. Ive got A LOT of illustrating and designing to do, especially since my ideas are heavy in illustrations..!
(booklet, CD, CD cover, CD back, behind CD, sticker, shirt, poster)
AND I'M SURE THERE IS MORE THAT I CANT REMEMBER.


Ive been a very busy bee! I do apologize.
School has becoming quite rough, especially my Ad II class.
But that's the point right, to challenge yourself.
And I was REALLY challenged this week, in almost every way.
Its like, my brain was empty. Flat. I couldn't pull an idea from my head if I tried!
Which was really.. scary and surprising to me.
I didn't like it.
And it really over-whelmed me.
To the point where I really want to motivate myself and not just do the assignment. But push myself until that blank point. And its like, if I procrastinate enough I can squeeze out some craziness-but-cleverness and my stuff looks awesome.
That's how Ive made A's and B's last semester I think. No. I know. :)

Around the world..around the world!


And the verdict is...... DAFT PUNK!

I'm very excited and intrigued to do such an incredible band! The next step is..... thumbnail time! I have to do five sets. All which include... a poster, cover/back cd design, sticker, and actual cd. I'm really nervous anxious.. because I feel like I have all these crazy ideas and how I'm sure how to ... tame the beast? Music gets me so inspired I'm thrilled to be doing a project that is focused around music.

The next step—once some sort of concept is approved I will post it. :)
