The final Fall 2011 post!

Being a famous designer is like being a famous dentist.

Well, the semester has finally come to an end! I am done with all my finals and classes! For my last post, I thought I would quickly recap on what I have learned and loved about my internship this semester.

First, like I said during my mid-term post, I have learned so much about regulations, working clients and working with a printer. All my trials and mistakes have definitely taught me how to deal with certain things that I am sure will come up in the future!

I have also learned how to design for someone else. In design classes, you are designing to your specific tastes and likes, and when you design for an actual client, they ultimately have the final say in your design. Now, I do have to say that the Cultural Programs was an awesome client and so easy to work with and I was very happy that they were my first internship!

I loved being able to create designs that I knew in the end would be printed in large quantities and seen by a large group of people. It really did give me a sense of accomplishment and pride in my work. I also loved being able to go to all the performances. I felt that I had spent time with these artists before the show even began because of the amount of research I did on each one for the designs of the postcards, and to be able to actually see each one perform was a great conclusion to each design.

Overall, I have really, really enjoyed designing for the Cultural Programs this semester, and I look forward to continuing it into the next!
