So here's the original and the new. Sorry I'm not going in depth, but it's a race to the finish! YAY!

Much better, I believe.

A day documented in brands (lovemarks?).

nobody@vox.com(chris_maier) — Fri, 23 May 2008 18:14:30 -0700

Jane, an advertising account executive, has put together a visual representation of all the brands that she interacts with on a typical Friday from dusk to dawn. Overwhelming!

Self Portrait Revision

nobody@vox.com(Brittany Litschewski) — Mon, 19 May 2008 11:54:37 -0700

So I decided not to make it a magazine spread and just go for a one page ad (which would be more likely for a Measure ad) I fought with the colors FOREVER. I kept having problems with my skin tones and Lucy's fur. The highlight and shadows either had too much contrast or not enough. So.. I finally got in okay. Chris gave me the idea to apply the same elements to other documents sizes too. Like if it were to be an ad in a local newspaper.

Portfolio Revision #6: Mark Twain

nobody@vox.com(shauna_haider) — Wed, 14 May 2008 13:32:10 -0700

The original cover was fine, but a bit generic. I liked the typography and hierarchy of words, but it wasn't anything groundbreaking. For the revision, I was inspired by the typography god himself, Herb Lubalin and his love of Avant Garde.

In this project revision, I ignored the rules of scale and hierarchy that I would normally adhere to in the name of visual interest. Here's a larger version of the front cover to show the bold use of positive and negative space:

Project #5 after

nobody@vox.com(Sara Granberg) — Mon, 12 May 2008 13:01:52 -0700

I finished the next three pages and worked on the colors. I also added a geometric texture/background. I think that the solid color was flat and it needs something, but I'm not sure if this is the right solution.

The End of Cuckoo

nobody@vox.com(sebastian) — Mon, 12 May 2008 10:53:32 -0700

So, I’m finally at the point where I feel happy with the Cuckoo Juice revisions. I can finally put this aside and work on other projects. Although, I am open to small general changes to the peices, this general feel is what I’m sticking with.
