To the Start of a Brand New Year!

Hello Hello to all!

I’ve been on an uber long 4 week long holiday back to my home in California. I recently arrived back to London about 3 days ago, but literally have been sleeping my days away. (I’m the worst when it comes to jet lag) But I think as of today my mind is a tad bit more refreshed than when I first arrived so I ought to start blogging right away. 

I would like to get started on a few things,

FIRST of ALL!! 

I would like to congratulate a good friend of mine- Andrew Rose, at being accepted to work as one of the assistants at Sundance Film Festival in Utah. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this Film Festival, it is the largest  independent film festival in the US. It is responsible for making indie films such as Napolean Dynamite, little miss sunshine, Saw, the Blair Witch Project etc etc all big hits! If your interested in seeing what exactly goes on in these rad festivals check out Andrew Rose’s WordPress Blog! Good luck! 

NEXT..

I’m preparing to create the first ever, ED2010 Campus edition right here at the University of the Arts London. I first was thinking it would be a good idea to do it through CSM. BUT! theres so much talent everywhere.. why not the whole of UAL. So just make sure if any of you are interested, keep watch to make sure you dont miss out on this historic event!

NOW..

on to the art. i’ve been mainly enjoying the R&R of the holidays but i did manage to create my image for the Hero/Heroine Photography brief.

[Hero: Music]

{My hero is music and the lyrics behind it. Lyrics provide a way for human beings to express themselves in a bare organic way.}

its 11:28 and im procrastinating.

heres an update on my London Project which is due in oh.. 10 hours. assuming i would like some sleep, less than that. 

heres a big heavy dose on my love of typography.. BANK is in reference to the tube station where, you guessed it most of the bank(ers) go for work. BRICK is in reference to brick lane, which is a major hang out for all artsy folk.. not to mention where most of our art shows are located.

i heart typography

i was listening to the band “Four Year Strong” not too far back and really was digging this lyric. Also I really love typography and colors. so why not? :]

its that time of year again!

oh yes… the two most awaited things by moi. College Football season (Go Bears!) and Fashion Week! I honestly can’t wait to see what new comers.. Alexander Wang/Thakoon are bringing to the table. Oh yes and also a big congratulations to my beloved Cal Berkeley Bears for winning their opening home game.

[ psst... i know its small.. but if you take a gander its the NY Fashion Week Schedule!] <3

Today is the Start of a New Day.

It being September 1 2008, means that I am 21 days closer to living, studying, breathing London. 21 days till the start of my BA honors Graphic Design experience ( i have no idea what the honors means, but its on my course description.) twentyone more days till I get to meet the most influential young artists in the whole world. I have decided that this will not just be my Creative Portfolio, but my diary and your insight into my creative process. Because the finish work is always what’s shone, but the creative process is where you find the artist.
