This week at the Pendulum it was Halloween! One of my main responsibilities this week was designing The Swing Ad on page 2 in addition to an infographic for The Swing on page 8. I also designed page 13 and the Diwali story. Check out the entire paper on Issuu.
This week in the Pendulum…
The Pendulum – October 26
This week I designed the teaser at the top of Page 1, including the logo for The Swing (the Pendulum’s new webcast). On page 14, I designed the headline for the Woods of Terror article, as well as the advertisement for The Swing at the bottom of the page. I also stylized the One on One Sports headline on page 20. You can read the entire paper and view the design on The Pendulum’s Issuu.
Sept. 11 Multimedia Website
I had the opportunity to design the multimedia page for our Sept. 11 edition of The Pendulum. It was based off of the Freedom Tower being built where the World Trade Center Towers stood. Jeff Stern animated the page and made it live on the website. View the page at http://bit.ly/EPsept11
Design Editor for the Pendulum
This semester I have began working for the Pendulum. My first project was to design the sports insert for our first edition. It is a magazine insert instead of a traditional newspaper design. The front page of the insert was created in Photoshop, and the rest was laid out using InDesign.
View the entire publication on Issuu. The sports insert begins on page 17.
20 years with Robin Lambe and Joe Gibbs Racing
At the end of my internship this summer, I was able to do one more interview. Robin Lambe who has been with Joe Gibbs Racing since the beginning provided a woman’s point of view to the past twenty years. She has had the opportunity to work in a variety of different department and watch the team grow. Follow the link to read my interview with her.
Indy Prep Photos
Things are moving along here at Joe Gibbs Racing as we get ready for the Brickyard 400 this weekend. Boris and I went down to the shop to see how things were going. The photos I took were posted in an article that Boris wrote about all that is happening here at the shop. http://joegibbsracing.com/2011/07/28/this-week-at-the-shop-indy-prep/
Redskins and Racecars
This past week Coach Joe Gibbs had a reunion celebration with the Redskins from when he coached the team in the 80s and early 90s. The event included golfing and a trip to the racetrack with some of JGR’s drivers. I was responsible for photographing the event. The photos have been posted on the Coach Joe Gibbs Facebook page at the following link http://www.facebook.com/joegibbsracing?ref=ts#!/media/set/?set=a.10150255810904324.350143.325023464323. Hope you enjoy them!
20 years with Jimmy Makar and Joe Gibbs Racing
Joe Gibbs Racing has been racing for 20 years now. I had the opportunity to meet with Jimmy Makar who has been with the team since the beginning in August 1991. It is fascinating to hear how things have changed along the way from a 15 employees to 450. Read the stories from my interview with Makar on the Joe Gibbs Racing website at http://joegibbsracing.com/2011/07/06/get-to-know-jimmy-makar/
A little something that I wrote for Father’s Day… 10 Ten gifts with Joey Logano
This is a write up that I did for Father’s Day after visiting Home Depot with the Home Depot #20 driver, Joey Logano, and JGR’s Boris. It presented some of the top 10 presents that you can buy for Father’s Day at Home Depot. It was published on the JGR website.

JGR: Episode 5 of “THE SHOW”
Interning here at Joe Gibbs Racing has been an exciting experience. One project that I was able to help with was the latest webisode of “The Show.” It is a fun look inside what is going on here at JGR. I was able to help with the filming and editing of the section of the show where Boris and Joey go shopping for Father’s Day at Home Depot. I hope you enjoy!
