Designer Project

The designer I picked was from a company called O'Leary and Partners. I picked the WD-40 ads because they caught my eye and they made me laugh. This company was first thought of by Steve O'Leary in 1983. He wanted to create his own ad agency. The ads target was to show how WD-40 makes a job easy with a dose of "Shop Talk" The ads were created by Josh Zipper, Matt Mcnelis, Eric Sbiegler, and Tim Tadder.
I created the background to look like the backgrounds in the ads. They all looked rugged, beaten up, which resembled the products aim. I made it appeal to the mechanics that would want this product.

Cool Ice Cream Design

This Ice Cream design appealed to me because I thought creating a C with the Ice Cream was really cool and such a creative Idea. I also like the black container because it looks very sharp and makes the picture of the Ice Cream stand out. I think that the title is very strong in this image and also the flavor of the ice cream.

Kick Butts Day Poster

This was a little side project that I put together for Kick Butts Day 2011. The point of this project was to create a poster for fighting against tobacco.

Bobby Orr Quote Design

For my quote design I picked one of my favorite hockey players Bobby Orr. In my design I tried to balance the picture so that you could see him playing hockey but also you could see and understand the quote. I tried to represent the quote by making it a rough looking text, like old school. The project for this design was to find a historical figure and famous quote they have said in their lifetime. Then show a picture of them represented by the text in the quote.I made this my own by finding a figure that is important to me. To find the image I searched for the few images of bobby orr that their are. Then I basically wanted the word tough to stand out so I made it larger than the rest of the quote. I also added the stanley cup which is one of the toughest trophies in any sporting event to achieve.
