2016 INK Show – You are Invited!

INK SHOW RECEPTION
Friday, October 21 / 6 – 8 PM
Introductions at 7 PM

SALT LAKE COMMUNITY COLLEGE
South City Campus / Center for Arts & Media
Edna Runswick Taylor Foyer / East Entrance
1575 South State Street / SLC, UT 84115

In 2010, Salt Lake Community College Visual Art & Design Graphic Design students Nadya Bratt & Casey Kim created INK as a club for anyone interested in Graphic Design. After their graduation from SLCC, INK evolved into an online source for those passionate about the visual communication industry by offering access to news, resources, and networking.

VAD Associate Professor Kerry Gonzáles and caretaker for INK, is proud to share the talents and creative directions taken by Alumni & Friends of INK in this – the second annual – INK, an Art & Design Group Show.

Each piece showcases the design process from initial research and ideas to a completed product. And most importantly… how a good foundation in graphic design is used in a multitude of careers.

Graphic Designers Can Do Everything!

Casey Makes a Commercial!

GRAPHIC DESIGNERS CAN DO EVERYTHING!

INK is so proud how VAD Graphic Design graduates can do EVERYTHING! Here is a new video created by alumnus and INK co-founder Casey Kim, with help from another talented alumnus, Kevin Hole. Kudos!

From Casey Kim:

“The video was created for a partnership between Control4 and Amazon Alexa to showcase how the voice command capability of Alexa can integrate with an automated home, in a practical scenarios.

The focus was very much on the product for this video, so it’s an intentional choice as to why you never really see the people come into focus. I shot it on a Sony A7SII Mirrorless DSLR, using mainly natural light. We used a small hand-held light to generate some highlights in the darker shots. A lot of the house was staged for the shoot, so many of the accent articles and lights you see, we staged. It’s pretty crazy how much of a difference some simple staging can make.

Kevin Hole was my production assistant that day; we were only a crew of two.

It broadcasted at a live event this afternoon for an audience of about 5K. Afterwards, my boss called me to congratulate the response, and said Amazon loved it.”
