First GAG Meeting for Spring Semester:
This Wednesday, Feb 6th at 2 pm
DDM Class Studio/Lab
This should be a GREAT year for GAG! There are a lot of events coming up in our area and a lot for us to do. We also now have over $2000 in our account to do them.
Who MUST ATTEND...
Anyone expecting to get a degree in DDM are required to attend this and all meetings and participate in activities... the only exception is if you have a class or work at the time of the meeting or activity. (Work = a paid employee and scheduled to work at that time.) You can NOT miss classes for GAG meetings or activities (except field trips). If you miss a meeting or event you are required to communicate with the officers, committees, or other members to find what happened at the meetings and how you can participate in any activities if they are planed.
WHO IS WELCOME AND ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND...
If you are in Intro to Graphic Design (DDM 101) or Intro to Mac (DDM 110), or if you are just taking DDM classes as electives like Photography or video, your are welcome, and encouraged to attend and be a member of GAG but it is not required.
What is GAG?
GAG stands for Graphic Arts Group. Currently we are loosely affiliated with AIGA, American Institute of Graphic Design, (click here for student member ship page, membership not required at this time). This is one of the issues that we will be discussing at future meetings. Basically, our group is about helping us learn more about the field of graphic arts (graphic design, photography, illustration, animation, video, etc.), help us as students to participate in and travel to events related to our field, and get to know each other and begin to developed a professional network for our selves to help us once we have graduated.
We need Officers: (President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer.). Ideally officers students who are in or have taken at least Page Layout I.
Added incentive for being an officer...
Positive - You will receive extra credit at the end of the semester in any of my classes.
Positive - I can promise you that this is a GREAT opportunity to add strengthen your resume, and will help you get a job after you graduate.
Negitive - We will loose all that money that you have all worked so hard to get if we don't have officers by the end of the meeting.
Note: If you are interested in being an officer but can not attended the meeting contact; Michelle (michelle.eriacho@gmail.com), or Rylen (jackrabbit1492@gmail.com
).

Welcome to Spring 2013 Portfolio Class
Hello and Welcome!
We seem to be off to a slow start. Some of you seem to know what 'Arranged' means and have contacted me and have started on the class. Others have not. Which ever camp you are in, this is what you need to do.
1. If you have not received an email from me, send me one. 'Portfolio' is to be the title, your name is to be the body.
2. Start the content portion of you resume. Start by looking up how to write a resume, and people in your field who have posted their resume on the web. Here are a few places to start...
3. Old Work Revision: You will need to end up with 15 to 20 pieces in your portfolio. Start looking through your old work class work, professional work, or things you have just done for fun. For now you need to find at least 3 that you can work on and improve. You can start this anytime, the sooner the better.
4. Set up a time to meet with me next week between Tuesday and Thursday to meet with me to show me what you have done by then and talk about what you have in mind for your CV. (Look it up if you don't know what a C.V. is).
