In any design field, artists have to balance their own brand or their company’s brand with the trends that come and go. We had a chance to chat with three alumnae working at Victoria’s Secret about their own efforts to find this balance in their work.
The alumnae work on marketing projects from new gift card designs to environmental graphics that appear in stores nationwide.
Advertising & Graphic Design alumnus Andy Hayes (CCAD 2001) created an event poster for the Columbus Society of Communicating Arts (CSCA.)
The poster was for their guest speaker Erik Johnson, who spoke in January earlier this year.
Several alumni earned well-deserved accolades at the Columbus Society of Communicating Arts (CSCA) Creative Best Awards for their work with S77, a motion graphics company in Columbus, OH.
The CCAD alumni team at S77 includes Media Studies alumni Sean Conner (CCAD 2005), Nate Reese (CCAD 2005), Chris Meister (CCAD 2006), Andrew Mark (CCAD 2007), and Scott Ulliman (CCAD 2010), and Advertising & Graphic Design alumna Chavilah Bennett (CCAD 2012).
Advertising & Graphic Design alumna Holly Koskinen’s studio, Koskinen Creative, won an American Graphic Design Award for a re-branding and logo design for the Blue Horizon Resort in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
This is the second American Graphic Design Award for the 2005 graduate. In 2011, she won an award for re-branding.

Three alumni are involved in one of the many public art projects being produced in celebration of the bicentennial of Columbus, Ohio.
Illustration alumna Marty Husted (CCAD 1979), Fine Arts alumna Heather Nibert (CCAD 2012), and Advertising & Graphic Design alumnus Mark Thomas (CCAD 1990) are each participating in the project 10x10x10: 10 Murals, 10 Galleries, 10 Openings.
Illustration and Advertising & Graphic Design alumnus Jeff Stahler (CCAD 1977) was recently interviewed in The Illustrator's Market.
"Creativity never seems to stop," Stahler said in the blog post. "I love getting up each morning and traveling up the stairs to my third-floor studio, where I plant myself. I read, doodle, sketch, and ink ideas for hours."
