Today during second and third hour a speaker from the Creative Center of Omaha was in the art room.

Know about it?

Yeah I guess not too many people did.  Any hobbidy who...

 So, I do believe his name was Jeremy, and he showed a rather entertaining few clips about the local college.

Sara would beg to differ on that 'entertaining' note. But I love her anyway...

So, anyway, I figured I'd do an Individual Blog about it.  Because, as we all know by now, that's how I roll.

The Creative Center is located in Omaha, as I'm hoping you've realized by now.  It's a college whose main focus is Graphic Design.  Killer.  Many of the students have won awards, and according to the speaker, about 30 are won per year.  The Hall Of Fame there is a shiny corridor indeed.

 Speaking of shiny, brand spankin' new Macs are included in the enrollment fees.  Along with such awesome packages as Photoshop CS3 (a pacakge I recently downloaded by the way) and Flash, an animation program.  I don't know about you guys, but I find navigating Macs EXTREMELY difficult after all these years with a Windows PC. 

One of the main focuses of the school is getting the idea from in the ol' noggin onto paper.  A fine purpose indeed.  But one of the things that was mentioned quite frequently by the speaker, was that Graphic Design is everywhere.  On the street corner, on billboards, on the shoes you wear.  It was crazy. 

 Needless to say, I requested more information about the college, because it sounded pretty awesome, and I'd like to keep my options open.  I guess if you really want to find out more about the school, I'd talk to Mr. Renkly (eh hem... the art teacher) or visit the website.  Here:  http://www.thecreativecenter.com
