Side Post: University of Cincinnati VLNEXT Acceptance!

 

Another $10,000 of non-dilutive funding!

This makes our total funding for this year $22,250. This is more than enough to fund our first initial product. We were recently accepted to the Venture Lab Next program at the University of Cincinnati, and over the course of this summer, we will meet and work with various industry professionals and mentor entrepreneurs to assist us in perfecting our prototype synthesizer. This new business accelerator will be a fantastic learning experience and way to hit the ground running.

Blog Post #4: Final Demo Reel, Render, VLNEXT, and Integration 04/22/2024

Placeholder photos were replaced with the final compositions, as well as new subjects added for other completed areas. Background motion through the brand shapes was also a new addition. The organization of the demo reel was based on displaying the final works first, then the development pictures, as well as displaying the various funding and networking events we attended. Final Brand Render   The final/additional brand render is now complete as a 3840x2160 image (Though Blogger will cause for it to be lossy).

I am very satisfied with this composition; I had created a 3D-model of the Junietta logo, modified it to have varying layers of height dependent on color, and dedicated a good portion of the time perfecting the lighting. A special "Shade Smooth" technique wa...

Side Post: Final Logo & UC New Venture Championship

Recently I presented my findings and progress to the DFX 452 class and offered the chance for the class to give input on our two final logo contenders, seen below.  The class overall preferred the left logo, which is more in-tune with our project goals and company values. It is representative of the layers of music, akin to the earth's core, and how humans are connected to our planet through culture. We decided to further refine this logo and change the "warp effect," which leads us to our finalized logo that will be used in company advertising, style guides, branding, and production. This new and refined orb logo, seen at the top of this post, is our pride and joy. We have spent countless hours refining, testing, and iterating on the logo project, and we are truly happy with the final outcome. For the next news in this side blog, we were sugge...
