In June and July of 2011, I presented a series of six workshops on the open source photomanipulation application called the GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) at Princeton Public Library. In the series, inspired by one of the attendees, I decided to focus on emotion and color in design. Below are the presentation framework, the source and project files, fonts, brushes, etc.
Project files are available at in the folders palettes, fonts, textures and brushes.
June 1st, 2011: For a few months leading up to June, 2011, I was part of a team that came together to produce a TEDx event under the TEDxPrincetonLibrary brand. I was responsible for the web presence, graphic design and branding, and other technology related tasks. On the day, I was mostly responsible for setting up the stage for each speaker.
So here is our final version of the branding for the Cornerstone themed TEDx event on June 1st at Princeton Public Library. I’m proud and excited to be a part of it.
