Part I

From the Alumni presentations, I gathered that internship was viable to each of their career paths. I enjoyed viewing the different standpoints of each of the alumni’s journey. I find it interesting how a connection within the industry can alter a designer’s career path such as Anthony Zubia and his work with the Testicular Cancer Foundation, as well as Alejandro Ura’s SXSW connections. Also, I loved the work that was presented by the alumni: I can see each designer had some sort of clear sense of design. My favorite alumni was Edith Valle because not only was her work very relatable but extremely nice and natural. I love the way Edith got out of her comfort zone and utilize Photoshop more to express her unique illustrations. I can see that Edith had a strong passion for her culture and craft.
