Frank Chlarson and Shannon Durbin

Dear Judges:

 

I would like to thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to view my presentation and allow me to share with you the knowledge I gained during this internship. For my internship, I had an amazing opportunity to intern with Frank Chlarson, a graphic designer, in the art of logo design.

 

Throughout the duration of my internship, I have learned so much by simply witnessing the roles of a logo designer. I have always been amazed at the qualities logos possess but had only recently taken interest in the designing process. I know how to create a full “branding experience” for a company. Because of this internship, I now know how to design logos in a vector program, like Adobe Illustrator. In addition to the logo, I also know how to make a Branding Book, which provides color codes of the logo and shows the misusage of the logo. I created a logo and a Branding Book with my mentor to demonstrate my familiarity in logo designing.

 

This year with the FasTrak project, I learned to work independently, make connections, and manage my time. This internship is truly an unforgettable experience during which I learned an extensive amount of information on a topic I knew nearly nothing about. Although I have not quite narrowed down my career choice with this internship, I recommend that everyone participate in at least one internship.

 

I have spent a great deal of time on this project and I hope that you will be able to see my commitment on the final presentation day. Thank you once again, and I hope you enjoy the presentation.

 

Sincerely,

Shannon Durbin
