JASC 62nd

Hey all,
This summer I was able to participate in the 61st Japan-America Student Conference in Japan, and I was nominated to be this years publicity manager. This means that I am in charge of all publications for this conference. The conference was starte din 1934 by Japanese students looking to better relationships with the USA, and the conference has continued since! It is entirely student run and operated, and it has produced many successful alumni, i.e. Henry Kissinger, Prime Ministers of Japan etc.
At the conference, delegates participate in forums, lectures, and round table discussions to further understand international as well as domestic issues in Japan and America.

Hey guys,

Here is a picture that I haven't posted yet!
It is an advertisement for the Michael Eric Dyson and Tavis Smiley Shows at WCLK!
It appeared in the Atlanta Tribune.

Hello All! I am working for 91.9 WCLK The Jazz of the City, a NPR and Clark Atlanta Station this summer. I listened to their music throughout highschool, and especially to Morris Baxter on "Morris in the Mornings." Every morning he told inspiring stories and shared enlightened quotes. I applied last year, but I was interning at Jump! broadcast design last year. I was really excited to be able to work at WCLK this year. I hope you all enjoy my summer portfolio! The images in my portfolio were posted in email-advertisments to WCLK patrons, made in to flyers, placed in the Atlanta Tribune and added on the WCLK website.


Here I have an advertisment for Rene' Miller's "The Miller Mix" event. This event is an "afterwork cool down" friday nights at the delectable Sweet Auburn Bistro. She is a very popular DJ and Host at WCLK whose show"Sunday Jazz Brunch" showcases some of the best artists in the city.

Here is another "awwww...." moment for a WCLK logo. I was asked by my manager to create a child-like image of WCLK. So, I came up with this design.

WCLK was looking for some homey touches for its logo, so I manipulated it for this "For the Love of WCLK" image- a piece that was supposed to remind listeners of the "good ole' days" in a warm and fuzzy kind of way. By the way, a lot of changes have taken place in Jazz, especially in the Jazz community in Atlanta. WCLK is THE ONLY JAZZ STATION IN THE CITY now...While I didn't have any love lost for the rival station, this just makes me meditate on the future of the jazz artform.

This was the original concept that I used for her "Remix." It did not make the final cut, but I did like the idea nonetheless. Since she is a DJ, a record and mixing machine were my inspirations.

Here is an advertisement I did for Rene' Miller's "Remix" events in Atlanta. Rene' is a very popular host for WCLK's Sunday Jazz Brunch, and she is such a character!
