It's been a year. Amazing, ain't it? The site of the cast is the personal portfolio of Kyle Follett. He's a creative director for a software development firm, but also designs sites. His work is very
strong, and his personal site is quite interesting. Each section interacts in a unique way. Take a look. http://www.folco.net. When it comes to the world of corporate design work, make sure you
realize one thing... you can only count on yourself. Your company hired you, for the talents you possess. So, always keep in mind that they need you more than you need them. You can always work on
your own. Without you and your talents, they can't work. There's power in your abilities. The book of the cast is Logo Design That Works, by Lisa Silver. It's made by Rockport. It's a great, quick
read with down and dirty details of some of the best brands around.

It is important for you to keep your emotional connections to your work. If you lack personal attachment, your work will suffer. If you do not care, you do not have passion, and passion is the
life-blood of any creative endeavor. People think that because it's a paying industry, that you shouldn't care. They think you are making a "product" and that's it. This is wrong. Caring about your

It is important for you to keep your emotional connections to your work. If you lack personal attachment, your work will suffer. If you do not care, you do not have passion, and passion is the
life-blood of any creative endeavor. People think that because it's a paying industry, that you shouldn't care. They think you are making a "product" and that's it. This is wrong. Caring about your
work does not make it worse. It makes it purposeful, and shows something we don't care to share anymore, it shows your humanity. The site of the cast is the personal illustration portfolio of Nick
Deakin. Nick's an artist out of Yorkshire, England, and has a unique style. He incorporates textures with well composed characters for a combination that's attention getting. SOC -
www.nickdeakin.com. Awards are self serving trash. They don't help you win clients, nor do they make you respected amongst your peers. Ignore them, and life will be much better. The book of the cast
is Vitamin D: New Perspectives in Drawing, from Emma Dexter. This is a collection of art from very skilled artists that focus on hand drawn work. The pieces themselves are quite ingenious, and the
book itself helps aid their comprehension. Get the hardback, from Amazon.

Find a competitor and tear them apart. Visit their site, critique it, rip them a new one. Destroy them with a friend. Look at their work and know you can do better. Then, look at your work. Eat
yourself. Find what is holding you back, and demolish it. Ruin those obstacles that are in your way. Only then can you ascend to the next level. The site of the cast is http://www.selftitled.ca. It
is the personal portfolio of John Iacoviello and includes some very interesting navigation methods. Check it out. Silk screen printing is a new hobby of mine. I am truly enjoying myself and I
recommend you try it. It's not that expensive and it's very fun. The book of the cast is The Creative Business Guide to Running a Graphic Design Business by Cameron S. Foote. Consider this your
bible, when it comes to organizing your freelance/creative business. It's a guide for everyone in the biz, and speaks in a plain language. I've launched http://www.savehim.org. It's my new photoblog
site, where I am showcasing sketches and photographs I have taken lately. It's another hobby I am trying to develop. Make sure to e-mail me if you like or hate that site.
