Thursday

Tomorrow is the first game! (Preseason) but still. things are exciting/busy/but cool in general. I am pumped for the game and to see my stuff in person printed and everything!!!! On top of this..today i worked on doing a touchdown zone pass and a countdown clock to the game. Both were fairly easy seeing as once you get a template it is all uphill and easy sailing from there. I also worked on some editing for the playbook for life (i think we are finally done) and a map.

Wednesday

Wednesday marks the end of the Playbook for Life for the sports lab! finally done with it and glad! Well...the first go round is done but it always seems like more revisions pop out of nowhere. I also finished the white boards for the sports lab and are ready for production. Cool, cool stuff. I also worked on coming up with ideas for the red friday banners schools would put up on gamedays.

Tuesday, August 9th

No work today. I have an interview in St. Louis for a possible job.

Monday, August 8th

I spent most of the day finishing up the Playbook for Life and officially got it all done and ready for approvals. I also had to make a small tweak to a map for the website for ticket holders. It seems like I have also been doing a lot of Sports Lab type things lately and that continued. I started a new project for the Sports Lab creating 14 by 12 boards with trivia questions for kids when they go into the sports lab. There would be 4 boards but all would have the same basic template.

Friday

No work.

Thursday

It is all about the Playbook for Life. I spent the whole day and finished it so now we just have to revise it on Monday. I even squeezed in some other stuff near the end of the day. I made some edits to some maps people could download off the website as well as a banner for the "Pick 5" ticket option.

Wednesday

Not too much going on today except the Playbook for Life. This project has become a bigger time investment than we planned. Essentially all the fonts were outlined and ungrouped and layed out in Illustrator so things were harder than we thought they would be. I will continue to work on this.

Tuesday, August 2nd

Tuesday seemed like on of the longest days. I spent almost the whole day on the playbook for life. On this project I am editing an original book, 32 pages, updating colors, fonts, etc. Not my most glamorous day but someone has to do it! It is mostly updating the red colors in the book to our NEW red color, CMYK 20 100 80 0. On top of this we also need to fix broken links and fonts along with cleaning up some of the vector illustrations that are in there. It is a pretty cool book and I think kids will think it is pretty cool. The idea is that they would go to the Sports Lab (powered by Blue KC) and receive this book. Then they would fill out the book with their info. It is like a personal/interactive thing. Pretty cool stuff for a kid. Anyways, tomorrow I will finish it up and most likely get some new projects.

Monday, August 1st

Monday was filled with stuff. My project list was big, it included sports lab pins that kids could wear, a Red Friday spirit banner that schools would hang on Fridays to support the Chiefs, editing the Playbook for Life still, cheer buttons for the website, suite maps (a long on going project), sports lab sign, and a map change for the stadium ticket pricing. After all this I also managed to resize an ad from our sNAP size to our Yearbook size.

Friday, July 31st

Friday I was assigned editing projects, one big one in particular. We have a Sports Lab "Playbook for Life" that is in our old Chiefs red , CMYK 10 100 100 0. I had to go and update all the red to our new red, CMYK 20 100 80 0. On top of the color edits there were some vector illustrations that needed to be changed and tweaked. I also worked on the lost kids wristbands and sent off three versions to choose from. These two projects took most of the time and I have not finished the Playbook yet. I will continue to work on it next week. Thrown in the middle I had to work on the Tower Club Suite map which I created from schematic drawings. This also was time consuming. I will continue to work on it Monday or sometime next week.
