Week 4 - Project Post

This is my resume. I wanted it to be simple, yet distinctive - kind of like an advertisement, considering that my audience will be an ad agency. I chose a modern san serif type, Bauhaus Std. Light for my wordmark, headers and contact information. I used a vibrant pink color because 1. it is my favorite color 2. it describes my outgoing personality and 3. it attracts the eye. I chose to use a gradient in my wordmark to help guide the eye through the body of the resume. I also used Glypha LT Std. for the context, to complement my wordmark and continue my theme of simplicity and creativity. Sooo...

what do you guys think?

I couldn't click on your resume on the blog to get a bigger view, but I really like the color choice and the way it gets darker to the right (if I'm seeing things correctly). I also like how the lines of separation curve around your information in my opinion, its graphically appealing.

I really, really liked your resume when I saw it in class. The design you picked with the pink, the fonts and the curved lines make it very original and creative. What I liked best was how the design really matched the content of your resume. If I remember correctly, you were a party planner/wedding planner in the past, and the design you chose conveys that perfectly.
