I've been planning a little website full of wedding invitations and baby announcements and such that I have designed. My Senior Project was to learn how to create a website (I took a bunch of classes on web design and flash and the like to get a small foundation) and then make a site to get me started. The main goal by the end of the semester is to have enough cards on there so I can show people what I can do and hopefully get some requests for custom designs. In the future the site will be a lot cooler- it's still pretty basic. For any of you who would like to see the progress feel free to go to jessicageorgedesign.com
I did get a chance to get out a little bit this week. On Friday I got to see my cousin Julianne. She's starting up a really cool business that takes old home videos and transfers them onto DVDs. My personal favorite part is that she puts on a custom main menu that includes screen shots of different parts of the movie so you can see whats on it. AND (you can tell I'm a designer because this is the coolest part to me) she'll put them in a real DVD case with a custom design and even has this printer that can print right on to the DVD so it'll match. Such fun toys! If I could, I'd honestly just take movies of grass growing so I could design a DVD cover and label! I did get to help her make a logo and it was tons of fun. Here's how it turned out-
