Introduction to Bluewater

01 Since I am pretty new at Bluewater still and I needed to play around and learn Prezi, I decided to create an introduction Prezi telling a bit about myself and my work. I have to say, I really enjoy working with Prezi, it is like Powerpoints crazy awesome older brother.

 

Week 1 - Introducing Bluewater Internship

01 Let me start by telling you a little bit about Bluewater and then I will tell you how I came to find myself here.

Welcome to the office

Bluewater is a marketing agency that primarily partners with franchise companies. They use both traditional and digital marking to build complete campaigns to help franchises grow, stay relevant and keep ahead of their competition.  Some of their biggest clients are Great Clips, CarX and Nestle Purina.

This is Brian.... and the rest of the staff!

I came to find Bluewater when I met Kristy Krueger at an AdFed Event in September of this year.  We shared a table at this event. Kristy, according to Bluewater's People page, is a "Marketing Ninja" This is code for Director of Marketing. We talked, and I shared that I was a photographer with a strong interest in graphic design. This sparked her interest and we agreed to keep in touch as I was in the process of looking for an internship.  A couple months passed before we set up a meeting between Kristy, myself and Brian. Brian is Bluewater's Graphic Designer.  The meeting went well  and I was asked to join their creative team as a Graphic Design and Photography Intern.

Holiday Week: Ping Pong and Massage Chair

My first week here was a week of Holiday Celebrating. Many were wearing ugly sweaters, there was a ping pong tournament and then the week ended with a potluck and secret santa gifts. We also were treated to massages as part of the holiday week. It was a really great casual week, a good introduction to the company.

The projects that I am currently working on are:

• Learning Prezi and waiting for my first powerpoint to design in it.
• Creating 4 options for a new business card design
• Learning Bluewater, our competition and what makes us different
• Creating 4 new images for use on the main page of the Bluewater website.
