For those of you who do not have InDesign...you can always do the 30 day trial from adobe.com. It's a really easy program to use. OR I exported the document into .pdf format, so if you want to create this in another program you can.

aaaaaaaaand GO!

If Target can play Christmas music before Thanksgiving, then we can post videos about spring before Christmas

Here's a cute little stop-motion video that my host mom in Barcelona made for her jewelry website:

Alright, I need some advice... Kind of been rolling over it for a while, so HELP!!

I am currently at 72 pages in portfolio including cover, resume, contents page, and "about me." So, it is about 62 pages of just work... I know, no gawks, this is serious. I start each project with a title page and description, then go into it.

My projects are:
Vertical Farm (it has become very comprehensive and developed) - 12 pages - alone - building
Library - 10 pages - group project - building
New Orleans Health care - 8 pages - all alone - building
Tessatrek - 8 pages - Clay and myself - product
VaporNET - 10 pages - group charette - product
Four spreads on Digital Manufacturing Processes which includes PROXY since my role was to do material studies with the laser cutter - Singular/ group with PROXY - 10 pages - product
Abstract Art - 6 pages - all alone - art

Now, Caban wrote me a rec, so I feel inclined to keep the library and then take out New Orleans. It is also more developed obviously because it is a group project. However, that would mean that most of my projects were group or partner. I do not know if this is taboo to have so many group projects. Or, I could just throw it all in and say screw it. If anyone has ideas on group vs. singular work, then can you send it my way. I could use the advice. I would like to cut out one project to make the entire thing around 60 - 62 which includes again the non-project pages.

I am also looking at balance between architecture and product. Again suggestions...pleeeeeaaaasssseeee :(
