Here are some things I found from when I worked for Atari. They seem safe enough to post up as process that doesn’t give away mysterious industry secrets (video games are made with cats and toasters, btw). I was in between sophomore and junior year. Enjoy!
Number one: The 35th Anniversary for Atari was coming up during my internship, so I hashed out a few logo ideas. This is based off the new “Fuji” (which is what the logo is called, as it’s based off of Mount Fuji) and the Atari red/black/white. Momma Huang would be proud, I did hear her when she said video games would melt my brain.
Number two: I designed the content area for the online games site portion of atari.com. It was an interesting challenge to deal with a) the actual audience of the site, which was not the typical hardcore gaming audience you’d imagine, b) the rampant advertisements. Looking back on this, I kind of sigh…but I found this much improved mock-up that I had offered as an alternative.
Ah! the nostalgia. I must be getting old (ps, note that Miss Mac snob was plopped down in front of a pc all summer 
)
