graphic design
Chaz Laughlin approached the stand and my first impression of him was of a small Italian 'business man' with his gray suit and black shoes. A company known as Fearless Eye employs Chaz Laughlin. He has been working there for five years now. It's no surprise that the company has kept him for he is very talented with what he does. His job title is Director of Illustration, and with this title comes a lot of responsibility. He edits, produces and designs computer animated advertisements for companies around the KC area. He also meets and talks with the clients personally. Before Chaz ended up where he is today it took him a while in a few schools to get him ready. He studied for a while in Wichita then came here to Kansas State and majored in graphic design. After K-state Chaz went to work for a company that dealt with computer games. He enjoyed working with the graphics and software on computers so he decided to go for some more schooling. He went to UMKC were he learned more about computers and computer animation. And now he is a successful computer graphic animator for Fearless Eye. The first video that he showed during his lecture lasted a good five minutes. It showed most of his work that dealt with logos for companies and s
I enjoyed this presentation made by Chaz Laughlin very much. I would love to be able to do what he does for a living right now. Art has always been fun for me and I love fooling around with my computer and making short films. I would love to combine the two later in my career and work for a company such as Fearless Eye. One of the requirements for this paper is to list what influences the artist in their work. I'm not sure what BS the other students gave for this but Chaz did not hit on this subject at all. The only thing I can think of that would possibly work for this was when Chaz was talking about his job working at the company that made computer games and how the graphics interested him. He said that seeing those big computers and the graphics and pictures that they produced made him want to go back to school to get a better knowledge on the subject and go into the graphic animation field. Before he ended the lecture completely he did a little question answer bit. The most interesting question I heard was: "what computer software do you use?" His answer for this was Adobe PhotoShop, Adobe illustrator and Miah. The first two I own versions of but the last one, Miah, was a new one to my ears. Chaz talked a little about Miah what it was capable of. Miah runs for $17,000!!!! And has been used to make such movies as Toy Story and Toy Story Two it also was used to help with the special effects in Terminator II.
