Design Team Project chosen by CRS

The Cahaba River Society has chosen team H2O's brochure campaign design to use as their official marketing materials. Monica Carmichael of the CRS said it had been a very hard decision based on the outstanding quality of the work they received. The final brochures are in editing now and will go into production at Vulcan Materials later this month. Congratulations to team H2O.

Design Students Present to Local Agencies

On Thursday, November 11th, UAB's Intermediate Graphic Design students presented their final work for the Cahaba River Society to Monica Carmichael and Gordon Black of the Society. The students worked in teams of 2/3 for the past 3 weeks, visiting the Cahaba river, taking photos and developing their own visual narrative about this wonderful Alabama resource.

Matt Leavell from the Alabama Engine and Dan Monroe from Cayenne Creative were also part of the group listening to presentations and offering feedback. The Society will choose a direction form the eight  options and work with that team to finalize the project.

Previously, students had present the work to David McMath at Intermark and Sara Cannon and Dan Gavin from Scout for in-process feedback.

Watch for more info as the project develops.
