Have you heard about the island of trash? This is a great opportunity to meet Algalita Marine Research Foundation who built a raft made from 15,000 plastic bottles and sailed from California to Hawaii during the summer of 2008 to bring attention to the issue of plastic marine debris. Hear in person what they have told to ABC News, Martha Stewart, NY Times and the TED conference about their extraordinary discoveries. They will be here in Seattle as part of their route travelling by bicycle from Canada to Mexico. Along the 2000 mile coastal route samples of plastic debris collected from the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre (NPSG) will be given to legislators, educators and organizations--sharing Algalita's research and education programs with 1000's of people.

If you did not get chance to make it Compostmodern this will be your chance to see what you missed. We will showcase great speakers like Saul Griffith of Makani Power, Dawn Danby of Autodesk, Nathan Sherdroff the Design MBA Chair of California College of the Arts Emily Pillton of Project H and the Designers Accord.

All of this will be happening in the great atmosphere of the Fremont Studios. Enjoy light food and refreshments, mingle and connect when doors open at 6:30 pm. Speakers will begin at 7 pm.

Reality Check Student Portfolio Review

Saturday, April 25
Session 1: 8:30-10:30am
Session 2: 10:30am - 12:30pm
Student Exhibition Reception: 12:30 - 1pm
Art Center Gallery at Seattle Pacific University
3 West Cremona; Seattle

What is Reality Check?
Celebrating its 12th anniversary, Reality Check is an event designed to provide students and newcomers to the field an opportunity to receive constructive portfolio feedback from experienced design professionals. Reality Check is the time to show your work and ideas to some of the best art directors and designers in the Northwest. All that is needed is your registration, résumé and portfolio. The portfolio doesn't have to be perfect—that comes after you incorporate the Reality Check advice you're going to receive. Simply put, use this event to check your understanding of the basic principals and ideas behind creating a powerful design portfolio. Participants will receive four to five reviews, probably more!

What to Bring
A portfolio and résumé—and we're not talking perfect. 7-10 portfolio pieces at various stages of completion and the accompanying résumé you plan to use to get that first job or internship will do. You may present digital work on your personal laptop (remember to charge the battery!)

Dress to impress. Treat this as you would a real job interview, business casual recommended.

Have an open mind. Reality Check is all about the learning. The professionals we've invited are signing on to be your ally—they'll shed light on the basic principles and ideas you should consider in creating a more powerful design portfolio.

Just to Name a Few
Reviewers in previous years have included designers and art directors from firms + internal creative departments such as:

Amazon Gravity Design Microsoft
Avenue A-Razor Fish GoldenLasso POP
DigitalKitchen Hornall Anderson Design Works Starbucks
FILTER/TALENT IF/THEN Turnstyle
Fitch MercuryCloud Waagener Edstrom
GA Creative Methodologie WongDoody

Sessions
The event will be split into two 90-minute sessions. (You only need to register for one session.) Individual reviews are limited to seven minutes; time will be called. Each session is limited to 75 participants.

  • Session 1, 8:30am – 10:30am

Mark Popich from Hornall Anderson came in last week and gave us a good presentation on why designers have one of the coolest jobs ever, and he talked about HA and what they do and what it's like to work for them. Thanks for everyone who came, and for those who missed it, check out their website @ www.hornallanderson.com

We can also still use plenty of ideas for the club video we were thinking of making next quarter (it would appear on the digital screens around campus). Think about things that will make people stop and watch, and wanna come to club! :)

Hey everybody! Crazy portfolio 2 happenings, sorry for the late post!

This week we had our alum Shanda Smith swing by and give us an awesome talk on her
career and advice for young designers. If you missed it, check out pixelsoupcreative.com (her own design company) to see some of her work. For those of you that did come, thanks for showin' up, and I think some thank-you cards are in order :)

We also were supposed to have preliminary designs for our postcard project this week (Ashley Newcomer had hers and it was awesome!) BUT not to worry! Finals aren't due til next week. If you want to have yours included, it HAS to be done by the time club starts next week! We're printing so get some cool stuff done guys!

Shadow project update coming soon..

Good luck to everyone on your midterms! (or, for the ones that are done, get some sleep!)

friday, january 23rd, 2009

Hey everybody! Sorry it took a couple days to get this up! SO!

News from this quarter's first meeting on tuesday:

NEXT THURSDAY the club is planning on going to the Hatch Show Print exhibit
@ EMP at 6pm. Carpooling/meeting times will be discussed next tuesday. Since it's
first thursday, it's FREE. Take advantage of this and GO!! (normal admission to EMP
is somewhere around $20 usually). 

Also, we need everyone to brainstorm ideas for new GD Club posters! Come up with some cool ideas and bring them in preferably printed out on 8.5 x 11 paper to the next meeting so we can make some progress :)

More brainstorming is also needed for our guerilla art piece (in the school? somewhere downtown? one idea we talked about was chalk art around the city), and it was also brought up that we have access to several display cases in the school for any art of our own we'd like to put up. Talk to Dexter @ the next meeting for more about access to those!

As far as AIGA membership- we talked about contacting them if you still haven't received your membership card or book, and if you keep having trouble with that, keep Rachel posted so we can do something about this.

I think that's all for now folks! Oh and anyone who is interested in talking to a few classes about GD club and getting people excited for it, talk to Jared next week!

See you all next week! Bring your good ideas! :)
