In ep 125, Shelton continues the ‘going pro’ theme.
This week, both sides of the coin… working with direction (from Art Directors, Graphic Designers etc), and working solo when the client trusts your instinct.
Also, Daryl Gungadoo alerted us to Cooliris. Thanks Daryl!
And the date, which to paraphrase Franklin D. Roosevelt will live in infamy, has been set:
Saturday January 2nd, 2010.
Hopefully, we’ll see some SI fans make it from overseas, to complement the local contingent!
A venue has not been decided upon yet, but the plan is to lock something down soon. As soon as that has happened, you’ll be the first to know about it.
