Band Meeting

Things are starting to take shape today. I had to drive in with my car, normally i take the train, but because i had to bring my camera with i couldn't take the gamble of using public transport. After 1h30 of traffic which normally takes round 30 min i finally ended up in town only to be greeted by NO parking space. Sigh now i remember why i didn't want to work in town. But i eventually got a space a couple of blocks away.

Anyways alas i arrived at Gloo. Each day getting less awkward and more comfortable :) I've started learning some names without having to ask for them, you just have to pay attention to these things hehe. It took a while to set up my Mac to have Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign but its settled now and i can start working! At least it's CS3 now!

I finally got my 1st project gloohoo! I have to redesign the layout of their projects board. At the moment its a white marker board with the current projects they are busy with written on it. My job is to structure a workable layout and just plainly make it look pretty! My style reference is Gloo's own styling, which i reckon would be easy to recreate since it is more or less the same styling i use myself! So great success!

I had to take mug shot photo's of each design team member, this will be used to indicate who is working on what project. Made them wear my 3D glasses hahaha ice breaker much? So today it's Friday, turns out today was band meeting! haha who would've thought! i remember reading it somewhere on their website, but didn't really take it seriously. They are planning to perform 2 original songs and one cover. Plus its going to be metal! \m/ !hells yeah! \m/ but let me not tell you all their secrets :)

So yes as the days progress i'm feeling more comfortable, and more and more like a part of the team. Plus everyone is so friendly!

I like it here ^.^
