  • Every problem is an opportunity for a creative solution. Attitude is everything and you control your attitude. The bigger the problem, the bigger the opportunity. No one will pay you to solve a non-problem. Tina has some great examples of a money-making challenge she gave to a bunch of her students. They’re fun to listen to because they so clearly demonstrate how easily we can go beyond our self-limiting constraints.
  • The harder you work, the luckier you get. You need to put yourself in a position to make yourself lucky.
  • Find the intersection between your interests, your skills, and the market. “Follow your passions” is a cop-out piece of advice. Passions are necessary, but not sufficient. For years I beat myself up for not understanding what my passions were enough to follow them. Remember “Do what you love, the money will come”? It doesn’t often work that way. You...

  • BEST PRACTICES
    • Think of all outcomes before coding
    • "By the time I start typing, the work is done." - engineer
  • Front-end Developers are the best state designers bec they usually complain to the designer that there is a state missing.
  • Sol'n: work out with the developer early on on all the possible occurrence before you start designing.

CONVERSIONS

Relative Units

  • 1em = 16px (if not specified by user)
    • ie., if user specifies default = font-size: 10px;
    • then, width: 30em; /* 300px */
    • and, font-size: 1.2em; /* 12px */
    • NOTE
      • em can be dangerously have a compounding effect , so best if you use:
      • REM Unit
        • stands for "Root Em", always represents font-size of the root elements of the page, w/c is usually the HTML element.
        • ie. html {font-size: 1em;}
        • .box {font-size: 2em;} /*32px*/
        • p {font-size: 1.2em;} /*19.2px*/
        • doesn't compound here.
  • 1 px = 1/96th of an inch
  • 1 ex = x height of the character "x"

  • I've read a short about Milton Glaser's Drawing is Thinking. He said that he knows his subject more if he paints them, and that people think that one should draw accurately is wrong. It is waay beyond that. But you must learn the principles first.
  • Like this
  • I plan to paint something in the light of my mother. As much as possible I would not want to romanticize her though.

  • Andrew Altman, typographer. " Pioneers of Modern Typography by Herbert Spencer that's full of stuff by Kurt Schwitters and Apollinaire , that inspired me to think that typography could be something else. Ed Ruscha , who just paints words, or Ian Hamilton Finlay , who was a Scottish artist who did a lot of type in the environment .
  • "What is your system and how did you 'make it up'?

Basically by asking for advice from older designers as we went along. The ironic thing now is that as time's gone by, people phone us up. For instance, Jonathan Barnbrook is a good friend and he worked for us when he was a student. But he'll still phone me up and ask a bit of advice.

What challenges are involved in art-directing an environmental project, such as your Flock of Words collaboration with artist Gordon Young? Normally a graphic designer would sit with a Pantone book on thei...

  • Technology First. Like the colored pencil example, Technology First starts by selecting a very specific medium for communication, then creatively exploits its full potential.
  • Benefits
    • powerful informational framework for ideas to emerge
    • more efficient ideation
    • faster implementation times
    • better campaigns
  • Very Specific. Instead of "How can we use technology to reach this brand’s objectives?" Use "How can we use the technology behind Facebook’s ‘Like’ function to reach this brand’s objectives?”
  • Technology First Mindset
    • Enable creative thinking by embracing arbitrary constraints. What if your idea only worked between 2:13 p.m. and 2:15 p.m. each day? What if your mobile app could only show one senten...

  • To maintain BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY , responsive ads should use PX HEIGHT = TRADITIONAL BANNER SIZES . We could in theory create responsive banners that work with any width or height but that's not practical to build or test. I suggest we stick to a minimum width of 88 pixels and have the following set of standard heights:
    • 31px "micro"
      • micro bar (88 x 31)
    • 60px "button"
      • button 2 (120 x 60)
      • half banner (234 x 60)
      • full banner (468 x 60)
    • 90px "banner"
      • button 1 (120 x 90)
      • leaderboard (728 x 90)
    • 125px "small rectangle"
