Name Experience and Training OLPC Interests Other Comments
Katie Hand sketching, watercolor, digital art, calligraphy, typography, Font Design Creating art for OLPC cheerleaders, icons for Activities Bill Gates is the AntiChrist
Nikki Basic Photoshop, digital painting, and vectorization. Very little formal training; mostly self-taught. Graphic design, interface design, game art, organization. I don't know a lot (comparatively speaking) but I have decent intuition and like to learn new things.
Mel Digital photography, digital painting, photoshop, vector graphics Engineer. Art specialty is "how-to" diagrams (illustrative wordless comic strips in place of directions) Working mostly full-time on OLPC content, but willing to chip in art once in a while
Marisa Basic functions on archaic versions of Photoshop, some digital painting. Self-taught public artist. Any fundamentally artistic challenges/hurdles. I don't know if I could take on learning new graphics programs, but I'd be happy to provide art for whatever.
Eduardo Pixel and vector graphics,(icons, logos & ilustrations). Flash + html + video creation and editing. Trying to finish computer multimedia design course. Still unsure. I'm open to new ideas which touch my experience.
Joe Digital painting/illustration, 3D modeling/rendering/animation Game art, icons, small well-defined projects
Meredith I aim to aid in the development of icons and graphics that the user not only likes, but icons that inspire their usage of the software/the Laptop as a whole. I want to make sure that the importance of a good icon/symbol/graphic is recognized. The software is beautiful, so it should have a beautiful, smaller representation. I aim to take the Clip Art out, or maybe its taking Clip Art to a new level. I can edit video (program of choice is Final Cut Pro HD)as well as shoot video, sound (which I dump into Pro Tools), and I have tackled pretty much every Graphics editor out there, including NOW, the CS3 bundle-except of course Dreamweaver, b/c I do not use that. All of this starts with the process of Abstraction. Anywho, I can do it, just ask, (but I am already working on some graphics for an unknown soldier).
And I am pleased to be working in such company as you geniuses.
