Internship

Denice knew that I was on spring break so she let me have the week off since nothing was ready at the moment to be edited for the design team.

This week was much more lax compared to the previous weeks since I just finished a project for the merch store. On Monday during our team meetings, I was informed that I was going to put on the May issue to help with interior layouts, editing photos, and creating designs for the pages. I feel like I am definitely more suited and comfortable to work on layouts and editing photos as compared to making merch designs. I am definitely excited to work on the issues again as my last one was in January.

For this week, my space design was approved by Emmy, the store manager. We moved to the next stage of implementing the design on some mockups. I decided on using my design on a hoodie as I thought that would look the best. I have never done mockups for clothing before so this was definitely a new experience. I’ve only done mockups for magazine and poster layouts for class. Fortunately, Emmy had .psd mockups created and saved by one of the previous designers so all I had to do was open the file and implement my design over the model. After a few tweaks and edits, my hoodie design was ready to be put up on the store’s website in a couple days. It is definitely rewarding to create something that people have access to buy. That possibly, someone out there might like my design so much enough to buy a hoodie. 

After brainstorming a couple of ideas for the merch, I came up with one design for their space theme collection. Below is the png to my design that I created. I’m hoping to use this design on maybe a hoodie or a pair of sweats once it gets approved by Emmy.

For this week, I took a break from assisting with interior layouts and editing photos for the magazine. I begun working with Emmy, whose in charge in managing their online store. We worked in brainstorming a couple of design ideas for some of the collections over the week. I have never worked in coming up for designs for t-shirts, hoodies, and other merch items so it was a great insightful experience.
