Ideas for Presentation Titles

With my presentation of Paul Sahre I learned quite a lot about the man.  Now I need to figure out an interesting title for him.  The first idea I had was to use one of his quotes as inspiration.  Then, 

using my presentation as a guide I wrote down key words that would describe the 

type of presentation he might give.

"I have no idea what I'm doing, and it's wonderful."

Minimalist   Invisible   Reimaginated  Text  Repurposing  Absurd  Modern

IDEA #1

Feeling Wonderful With No Idea

IDEA #2

The Invisible Absurd Style of Paul Sahre

IDEA #3

Slightly Minimalist, Modern Repurposing

With ideas 2 & 3 I thought of some imagery that would go along with the titles. Idea #3 would 

use the toothbrush from Leisurama; a simple image of a toothbrush that represents weird modern culture.

With Idea #2 I felt it would be cool to use Sahre's epic sideburns and glasses as a minimalist silhouette.  I really like this concept because it shows aspects of his art style, while also giving an image to think on.  

I find the abstract portrait interesting as it lets the viewer quickly see his physical features as well.

But I guess the design could be used for any of the potential titles.

Describing Paul Sahre

Looking over my research notes on the designer Paul Sahre I found a few simple, 

describing words for his style.

Primarily Works with Book Covers

Some CD Covers

Classically Implied

Abstract

Minimalist

Modern Absurdity

Invisibly Designed

In one of the interviews I read, he felt disappointed in his work if people could identify an 

individual style in his work.The works of his that I already own are tribute works for other 

artists and his beliefs for invisible design are likely the reason for it.  

His approach was to highlight the original works without designing something that altered 

the feeling of the original work.

Examples of his work starting with the two I personally own, Kirby, King of Comics 

and Maximum FF.

Assigned Designer

So I've been assigned to present Paul Sahre to the class, via presentation.  After doing very simple research on the guy I found that I enjoy some of his work and personality.

As a matter of fact I own one of his projects. 

Go figure.

Final Contact Designs

After a few tweaks these are my final designs for a resume and business cards.

    

By leaving spaces on my cards, I can let my art speak for me.

EDIT: After spending an hour or so looking at the resume, I noticed a few typos and many graphical errors that I missed.  Certain alignments went unnoticed and some ideas never made it into the page while I was working on it.

It just goes to show that work is never truly finished.
