DATC Holiday Card

This card was a lot of fun to create. The inside said, "May you have all the tools you need for a happy and prosperous new year." This was perfect for an applied technology college!

DATC Annual Report 2012

Just received this back from the printer. Although this is the digital version for viewing, the cover logo was foiled and the cover had Soft Touch coating which gives it a special quality to hold.

In 1869, the transcontinental railroad changed the entire economic history of Utah, and branded Morgan as the only incorporated city from Omaha to Ogden. We decided to highlight this fact with our Grand Opening of the Northfront Business Resource Center in Morgan on May 3rd. It is similar to layouts of the 20's posters, yet with a modern flair. I designed the train from a photograph of the Union Pacific steam train #119. I also designed a postcard with the same image and other giveaway items.

DATC Annual Reports

These are the DATC and DATC Foundation Annual Reports for 2011. I decided to make them square to match the new logo that we incorporated (and I designed) last year. These are both 8.5" square. This is a great size since the printer doesn't have to use additional paper since common sizes are generally 8.5 x 11. We were very fortunate to get to use foil and emboss for the logo on the front, plus a shiny coating throughout to bring out some details. Just to top off the project, we added a 'Soft Touch' coating to the whole report causing everyone who picked it up to oooo and ahhhhh. Annual reports don't have to be boring. We had success stories sprinkled amongst financials, and great hands-on photos since we are a tech college.

The Foundation annual report did not have a similar budget. No special coatings and such, though, we incorporated the visual texture of scratchy metal to give an industrial feel and used the same size and style to go well with the DATC Annual Report.

Both of these pieces are going to fit well into a square kit box to be incorporated later in the year.

Junior High Tours

I was given the project of creating the 'look and feel' for the Jr. High Tours at DATC. We had 450 students attend this event and it was a huge success. These were a few of the inexpensive giveaways/projects for the students.

I created a vector-drawn image for each of the 6 schools and felt a perfect showcase for each school would be on a cube: 6-sides for 6 schools. We gave them to the kids flat and let them make their own. Another activity was to create an airplane with the same images. The school logo was also redrawn to match the style of the images and be more attractive to this age group. Since we have a Pharmacy program, a pill bottle with candy was a good addition to the fun.

Corner Café Sign at DATC

Here is the Corner Café sign on location. Since we wanted the wall to be red in this location, though still wanted the sign here, I decided that a black triangle would do the trick. Next, I am designing the wall opposite this with some large foods.
