Funky Promolios

It is getting crazier and crazier everyday at the illustration studio. Everybody's studio space is piling up with boxes of promotional postcards, business cards, portfolios, prints of artwork, funky promotional items and all the galore. PATZO!

We have couple of upcoming events for us.

Next Wednesday, we have our Open House Portfolio Day. All the design students are going to get together at the Warehouse and display our portfolios to the visiting art directors and alumni. It's really more of a test run for Lubin House. Lubin House will take place May 10th & 11th in NYC. It's the same thing except it's going to be bigger and more people will show up to see our work.

Last night I finished making a calendar for my promotional item. In addition to that, my professor Roger suggested that I make business cards in the shape of the glasses I wear to class every week. I bought these cheap plastic red frames at San Lorenzo in Florence last year. I punched out the lenses and wore them to all my critiques. I started to wear them on Wednesdays here at SU, which happens to be the day I have Roger's class. To be honest, I don't know why I wore them. Roger fell in LOVE with them and told me to wear them all the time. Now he wants me get them die cut at the warehouse with my information on it. At first, I thought it was a bit absurd but now I think it's very different but more importantly, me! It may be a hassle to get it done but I'm sure it'll be worth it. Now I just have to think of a catch phrase to go with it.

I'm getting food coma. peace.
