Inspirational & MDM525 Defining Clients Needs Assignment

First I must say a few words of “Gratitude”.  I’m soooooooo very Grateful to be doing my MDMFA Grad’s Degree Program.  I know I must sound very corny.  So I accept being the corny girl but yet very creative.  Defining Clients Needs is a part of this cool journey that’s my journey aka as Prosper’s Journey.

I have to be honest though because I’ve dealt with clients in the creative field for a while.  I’m no stranger to the inner-and-outer workings of providing creative services to famous clients as well as giving free advice and direction to family, friends and associates.

With that being said, I really loved this class.  I’m always open to learning something new in my craft and strenging my skills.  That’s why I’m doing this degree.  The three take-aways that resonated with me the most were:

One Margo Chase of The Chase Design Group.  I appreciated seeing Margo’s design process when she re-branded Chinese Laundry.  She was very thorough in her research; thoughtful in her design process and providing multiple resources.

Two Ina Saltz with her enthusiasm of typography and providing the science.  I must say, I never contemplated typography at such a level before I seen her Lynda.com Tutorials.  I can say I won’t go as deep as she does in the design process but I do have strong appreciation and will thoughtfully apply aesthetically what I learned in creatively and intellectually that makes sense to each individual project that I’m working on.  I know it’s important as a layman and a professional.

Three Sean Adams is another favorite of mine.  In fact, I wish I can meet him in real life; pick his brain and either work with him or shadow him on a few projects. There’s nothing like kinetically doing real work in real time.  I know multi-dimensionally, I would get a lot out of it as well as provide talent and creative vision.
