I design Coca-Cola.
It was Monday afternoon during working hours at Cebu Kolorsep Inc. when my two collegues and I decided to have a ten-minute Marathon Durandal game on our PC network. It was working hours but we were so bored since we had to do the same task everyday which was retouching photos of the models that needed to be put on posters.
I am very proud of this project because this is the design that I made from concept to completion. It may be lack of art direction and out of style but then this was my first concept that has been printed 10 years ago and aside from that it's created for Coca-Cola. It's a mess but I love it.
If you like this blog, give me your money bag.
The posters were already been designed by some advertising agencies. All we have to do was to copy the mock-up and put the final images to their design so it would be ready for mass production. Our company was responsible for the pre-press and printing. And my responsibility was to make sure that the files would be pre-press ready and ready to print. I saw to it that the design was in high resolution, CMYK color mode and had all the elements before printing it to film. So much for the introduction of my previous company and job, our account manager rushed unto us one day and said, "This is your chance guys". As she stood in front of us showing the photo of a girl, we secretly quit the game afraid that she might caught us playing during working time. She asked, "Who's not busy today?" Then the two of my co-workers turned to me without saying a word, just looking at me with their eyes wide open. The account manager presumed that I was not busy so she moved toward my place and sit beside me. She handed me the photo of the girl and said... "Show me what you get Clenn. Coca-Cola Bottling Company wants us to design their notepad cover for this summer 1998 event." To my surprise I said "Okay no problem".
The account manager wanted me to spent 3 days designing the notepad cover for Coke but surprisingly I finished the task in one day. Wow! Our company didn't offer designing, but the Coke company didn't have any option anymore for their design agency was loaded with the design project for the promotion of the said event. They thought that the notepad cover design didn't require much marketing stategy, so they just let the printing company conceptualize a design for them rather than to spend additional cost to the advertising agency to do it. Tsadan!!! Here's the design!

Heh, cool project man. Have been doing also some work for CC and they are unforseeable, gotta say. Sometimes they are strictly persisting all their standards, at another time they are completely freeing your hands...
BTW: this "comment as" system @ Blogger is pretty annoying...
