VIME 40th Anniversary Poster

We all have our hobbies and clubs that for specific hobbies. My father's club, Vancouver Island Model Engineers specializes is model trains, making and driving them. Their best models can also be ridden and pull riding cars. Thanks to their members, the club has been around for 40 years and could be the best part of a peninsula museum. To celebrate the club's anniversary, they are holding a party open to the public, complete with trains ready to ride. But they needed to let the public know, so my father asked me to design a poster for them. Other members of the club also created posters, but my design selected by the entire club. The main concept of the poster was a boy playing with his toy train while imagining he is driving the real thing.

Norvic Toastmasters Open House Poster

Last week I was officially elected as the Vice President of Public Relations for my Toastmasters club and with that I was asked to design a poster for the club's open house. Taking the color scheme from Toastmasters international website, I proceeded to lay photos of a few members wearing those colors.  The members were of varied ages, styles and positions to show that the club wasn't just for one group of people, but welcomed everyone. The title is similar to what a town crier would yell out, maybe one of the earliest public speaking positions and the kind of confidence that the organization wishes for its members. The background shows that the members speak from the heart and let it shine out.

Grandmother's Memorial Card

 Two months ago, my family received a phone call saying that my grandmother had past away in her sleep. With my mother mainly in charge of her funeral, I was trying to think of anything that I could do to help. In looking at what all needed to be done, I came across the one thing that only I could really do. Design my grandmother's memorial card. I did some research into what these cards tended to look like, then proceeded pull together imagery that suited my grandmother's life. The two types of flowers that I have running throughout the card, symbolize both my grandmother's birth month and the month that she died. I was happy to create one last thing for my grandmother using the skills that she helped fund.
