Abstract/Artist Statement
This semester, I had the opportunity to step outside of the classroom to work as a graphic design intern at Pacific’s Career Resource Center. At the University of the Pacific, the Career Resource Center relies on their printed materials as means of reaching their targeted audiences. Which consist of students, employers, parents, alumni, and faculty. When I started my internship, the staff at the Career Resource Center was not satisfied with the design of the printed materials, which also lacked an established unified look. My goal as an intern was to redesign their printed materials and create a new unified look for the Career Resource Center. My main challenge was to ensure that the new look made the Center stand out from the rest of the University; yet, at the same time, incorporate the University’s identity standards. I created a brochure for each of the different targeted audiences, a guide for employers, a guide for parents, and a brochure containing general information about the Center. I will also be creating an additional guide for faculty and alumni. While this internship has been challenging, I have learned a lot about working directly with a client.
