life or something like it

June 11, 2007 at 11:33 pm (design, its my life)

thought i would take a sec to give a brief life update… and some random thoughts on the world [rather my world] of graphics

- i moved
- i am in the middle of about 5 huge projects, 21 not so big projects, and about 6 more huge projects on the horizon
- starting to thinking about what in world i am going to say in my breakout session at ministrycom
- oh and i forgot to mention…. I GOT ENGAGED! hooray! and i made a decision and we set a date! (but i haven’t told the whole fam or people at work yet…. so i will post more on that later)
- the soon to be husband is the youth director at our summerville campus so i have been helping plan their summer camp too

so i have been a little bit busy…

but have no fear, i have had time to think about graphics stuff too

- swirls are on the way out (this is old news)
- simplicity is in (new news…unless you work in my office)
- learn new systems while trying to get a million projects done is difficult but i think as soon as i figure out the in’s and out’s of our new project management system it will be the most amazing thing ever
- we are going some new directions as far as reaching new audiences with our marketing… so that should create some fun design challenges in the next few months
- i like children’s ministry because it has caused me to have a new love for illustrator
- i am starting to like fonts
- designing t-shirts is an art form
- as are logos…
- and there are great things on the horizon for the web… and i am way excited
- i love my mac
- and CS3 is pretty awesome too
- oh yes… and annual reports (need i say more)

okay i am going to take some of these design thoughts in blog in detail about some of them over the next week or so
