One of the most anticipated field trips at the Creative Center is the Kansas City Trip. This year, second-year students bussed to both VML and Barkley, soaking in all the information and creative atmosphere that those agencies provide. It's a long day, but as you can see, a good time was had by all!

Ashton Rountree and Christian Moore, both BFA students who will graduate next month, were lucky enough to work on the Wounded Warriors Family Support Mustang, which will hit the road for the High Five Tour 2014. During the four month tour, the 2014 Mustang GT500 will travel more than 26,000 miles, traveling to more than 60 cities and making stops in 48 states.

Featured Project: Digital Annual Reports
Making information accessible and clear is one of the primary purposes of a graphic designer. One of the best challenges for designing information is the annual report, and second-year students are charged with doing just that. This year, students were also informed that their annual report would be created in a digital format instead of printed. Above are samples of digital annual reports created by CC students. Top to bottom:

What does the graduate do?
Nick: As a co-owner and creator for Omniiclipse comics, I work with a small creative team to develop our brand. My job includes (but is not limited to): editing, layouts, penciling, inking, coloring, conceptual design work, and serving as an art/story director.
Brett: I am primarily the penciler for our flagship book "The New Breed." As one of the founders of the company, my responsibilities have also covered character design and working out the story along with our writer and the other members of the team. I have also helped with marketing strategy and creating a brand for our company. I have a great team to help with a lot of the workload, so I can primarily focus on my penciling duties at the moment.
