Decided to combine two weeks into one blog post because unfortunately my grandmother passed away on the 4th and I took some time off to help and be with my family.
Last week I was able to talk to Gabbie about the details for the Research Podcast thumbnails! Super exciting but I’m just awaiting the reference photos of the first few guests and then I can draw up a proper schedule.
I’ve been chugging along on the Kubernetes coloring book.
I’ve been coming up with some designs for the Open Studio Swag t shirt contest! I got feedback from Mo about which ones were stronger and these two were part of the sketch phase. I just need to make a vector file of both of them for Friday. But some other interns said the sketchiness of the tree one is charming so I might try and see if I can keep that when I convert it.
I’ve also been doing a lot of small housekeeping things, like adding a signature to my Gmail finally, going into Workday, and adding a personal statement as well as skills. I talked with Joe from the talent acquisition team this week about a permanent job at Red Hat in September!
I worked on the new pride fedora logo and I came up with these below but honestly, they were relatively simple. Going over the previous ticket there was some debate about how much could be done with the logo, and my skills with Inkscape are still slowwwww and simple since I use it for drawing the majority of the time. Honestly, the worst thing is when you know it’s possible to do something in a program but not sure how, and Google is your best friend. But the ticket is here and Mo has come up with some really great variations!
Have a great rest of your work this week!
