Sucessful pitching, happy branding day!

I mentioned a while back that I was doing an assignment on branding and my focus was on branding my old school.

After spouting out many ideas, going through the process of refining and pitching, and pitching against other designs (which I haven’t seen btw) MECS have chose my design to rebrand with!!!

This is quite a big deal.

I’m not showing the logo yet as there is some finnessing to do at their discretion, but pleased to say I just landed my first big gig that is fairly high profile for the area and I’m rather estatic about it!!!!

Name drop: Paula Scher

I have a lecturer at uni who gets kicks out of dropping names. Artist names, designer names, typographic names, sculptors, printers… it’s both good and annoying, because you end up scribbling down names incorrectly and so quickly that you cannot whallop enough context around them to even hope you’ve spelt them well enough to chase down later. I have been meaning for a while to push myself into a position where I am a more intentional about chasing some of these names up. So for the past while I have marking names with asterisks or drawing little arrows that say ‘blog’.

From now on, every time this happens (which is usually at least once every Tuesday morning) I MUST read up about/write up about this oh-so-interesting/crazy/normal person.
