film day

On Wednesday, was a film day again. We watched couple of films which included great designers such as Scott McCloud, John Maeda, Milton Glaser and Paul Scher. Theses were designers that had many years experiences throughout their career and some were living legend. It's great to watch films like this because it really encouraging and also open up my mind to see what's is out there and what has been created. For example, when John Maeda created a program with cheetos, I thing that was amazing. It's very interesting how people could come up with such ideas. I loved the way that he tried new experiments on the copy machine. Another one of my favorites was the poster created by Milton Glaser, where it said, "Art is Whatever" and at the end it said "remains" and had the pieces of the letters all piled up underneath. Another great speech was given by Scott. My favorite part was when he said, " Learn from everyone - Follow no one - Watch for patterns - work like hell. He was into comics at the age of fourteen and mentioned how his father went blind and also talked about his personal life as well. At last was Paul she was the one who was not afraid of color and crazy images. Going with something different and out of the ordinary. She used lots of crazy images and lots of Typography with lots of different colors.
