To the Point: Interview With Dave Perillo, aka Montygog Response

The Dave Perillo interview was interesting. He reminded me that designs have to be creative. Dave's designs and illustrations of well known characters were comical and non serious. I can relate to him on a design level. He is a prime example of a successful graphic designer. Dave gets his inspiration from old time cartoons and innovators like Walt Disney. Overall, the Montygog interview was something enlightening when it comes to design and illustration.

Rethinking the way we sit down response

Neil Diffrient tells an interesting story about his romantic experience with designing planes. Throughout his life he has studied design. The part of his speech that caught my attention is the unveiling of Neil's chair. It was user friendly with excellent ergonomics. He made sure his design was thoroughly functional without anything nonfunctional. If you're passionate about design you can make an everyday object into something extraordinary.

How to Ruin a Great Design Response

Designs can make or break a business. Graphic designers have to always be careful when coming up with symbols, words, and images. Designs have to be functional and must never be non-functional. Some British Traffic signs can be enhanced by rearranging symbols and changing font size. The wrong design can hinder a franchise by allowing customers to think of something lousy and not worth paying for. In order to make a great design, one must make sure the images, symbols, words, and colors are appropriate.

Write a five line story?

There was a bug named Larry who married a Lady Bug named Marry.They live in the park of Blackwood.

Larry and Marry enjoyed eating leftovers from the local college. They disrupted cook outs and picnics.

The both of them went on a journey towards a bright light. They kept flying and flying towards something that was out of reach,

With only an hour to go, Larry and Marry buzzed quicker to the tempting glow. It seemed beautiful to them from a distance.

Without any warning, Larry and Marry were fried potatoes in an instant.
