Begin with the end in mind


If you don't have substance you can WOW them with sizzle.


Professor Wayne Kijanowski swore by this motto. He has a gift for Design, no doubt, and also saying "Happy day!" the photo above was a baby picture manipulated by wayne; he added his face. as a parting gift he made the design students a calendar "containing extracts from the class, which if used can impact the people you are attempting to communicate with."

my thursday night 7-week 2-credit Visual Communication course ended last night - whew! it was a sweet class; pretty much and introductory to Adobe InDesign Cs2.
We learned to implement the four basic elements of design: contrast, repetition, alignment and proximity. Wayne added #5: do not sacrifice legibility on the altar of cool.

after soccer season i'm going to do a pseudo-internship with the TIU Design team; you can call me a design groupie if you want - i don't mind =).
