Had an interview today with a possible design intern candidate. She showed off her work, which wasn't bad for a college student with a year and a half left.
She had a nice hand-painted chocolate bar redesign piece, which was completely hand painted from digital type. The concept was nice, because her teacher's brief was to make the concept based off of Miami (use of juxtaposition). The piece was based off of this building:
Had some nice details, but when asked about the name of the architect, she did not know. Also, she could not tell me the name of the fonts she used in the label, which were Trajan and Helvetica. I am pretty disappointed, but gave her a bit of slack for being young still. I *tsk, tsk*'d her a couple of times.
