Hinkle Fieldhouse Dog House

Mini me?



























Graphic Design: Hinkle Fieldhouse Dog House
Michael Kaltenmark, my supervisor in Butler University's Web Marketing Department, convinced several local businesses to sponsor the building of a luxury dog house on wheels for Butler's live mascot, Blue III, or Trip. He envisioned a dog house reminiscent of the historic, Hinkle Fieldhouse. Michael trusted me to make his vision reality. Utilizing Adobe Illustrator and images of Hinkle as a model, I created a simplified version of the infamous structure. My artwork was then sent to a printer who specializes in car wraps. He then transformed my artwork into giant stickers and applied them to the walls of the dog house. The final product, depicted above, was featured in Butler's 2013 Homecoming Parade, Fall 2013 Art Now, and resides in Butler's Bookstore for all to enjoy when it's not being utilized by official Butler mascot, Blue III.

Graphic Design: Social Media Memes
I was tasked with creating a meme for each of Butler's live mascots, recently deceased Blue II and 
Blue III or Trip. The memes were to be used on the dogs' Facebook and Pinterest accounts to raise awareness for and gain Instagram followers. Blue II's meme received 364 likes and 9 shares on Facebook, Trip's receiving 162 likes. The arrangement of the text and voice portrayed in the copy is meant to reflect the personalities my boss, Michael Kaltenmark, created for the dogs via social media.

Graphic Design: Homecoming Coloring Contest
The Butler Bookstore partners with Butler Web Marketing to host an annual coloring contest for homecoming. This year, I was tasked with creating the coloring sheet for the contest. It was to be of Butler's live mascot, Butler Blue III or Trip. I was given a rough sketch of Trip to use as a guide for this process. First, I put the image into Adobe Illustrator and used the pen tool to create the simple clean version of Trip you see above. Then, I used the Illustrator file to design the rest of the coloring sheet in InDesign.
