FFB LOVES TCU!
Last night I was in Fort Worth, so I decided to swing by the J.M. Moudy building at Texas Christian University and check out the opening reception of the BFA Senior Graphic Design Exhibition: Designer Genes. Always having a place in my heart for art and design (read here), I definitely wanted to check out the new wave of graphic designers!
As I entered the exhibition, the crowd was already filled with much excitement and anticipation...
...because of all the AMAZING work of course!
Whether it's joy, intrigue, curiosity, suspense, anger or the tugging of your heart strings...graphic design can grab your attention through a variety of many ways.
While checking out the work, I decided to chat it up and spread the FFB word with some of the crowd...
...as well as the designers! Below is Melissa Adams. From logos to packaging, illustration to advertising, photography to web, she does it all and she's damn good at it! If you don't believe me, check out her work here: The Small Things Studio (I'll give you some time to check out her work - 10 minutes pass) SEE! I TOLD YOU!
This dude below is my new friend, Ronald Villegas. Like his peers, he had some STUNNING designs on display as well! Ronald's hopeful that he can land a job in the field soon and I have no doubt that he will! So listen up all of you creative and art directors out there...DON'T SLEEP ON RONALD VILLEGAS! YOU'LL REGRET THAT YOU DID! Check out Ronald's designs HERE!
CONGRATULATIONS to this semester's TCU graduating graphic design class! Don't let anyone bring you down, prove them all wrong, use PMA instead of spray mount and don't forget to convert your RGB links to CMYK! GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU!
