Butler Social Media Website Mock-Up

Web Design: Butler Social Media Website Mock-Up

I was tasked with creating a mock-up design for a website to specifically house Butler University's many social media vehicles. It was to mirror some aspects of Butler's main website, while holding an identity of its own.

Web Design: MFA Blog Button

A common task I encounter interning with Butler's Web Marketing Department is creating  graphics to act as buttons or links on various pages of Butler's website (www.butler.edu). In this case, I was tasked with creating an image linking Butler's MFA in Creative Writing site to the MFA Blog. I was provided with the banner to the MFA blog homepage and asked to create a button with the same look.

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.

Instagram Memes

Blue II Meme

Blue III Meme

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.
