Fannie Lou Hamer DVD Box Set
About:
As the final project for Graphic Design 2, each student seletected a famous activist and had to design a DVD box set which included a 150 page book, a cd case, and a box to hold the items. My subject was Fannie Lou Hamer, a strong and proud woman who fought for voting rights in the 1950s in the South. The design motif behind the project was Fannie's unquestionable strength in her ideals which is represented using rough matierals. The box itself also represents the difficulties of voting during the 1950s, as it's a physical voting box which restricts the user.

Hex Redux Booklet
PDF File URL: www.msegreto.com/redux.pdf
About:
The Hex booklet was a class project in Graphic Design 1 where an object was reductively drawn and then turned into a booklet. The object I chose was the bolt and nut. I made the booklet based on the Lewis Bolt and Nut company, which has no affiliation, to show the bolt and nut object. I decided on a corporate and professional theme to echo that this is an official company booklet.
