GAGA hosts a Professional Crash Course event

NESAD’s own design group, GAGA, put together an event set to learn the real world business practices of Graphic Design. Students were pleasured to welcome Professor Peter Bianco to present a three hour crash course lecture / Q&A of his Professional Practice class. Topics discussed were what to charge as a freelance Graphic Designer, how to construct a design proposal and a client contract, and how to market yourself and build relationships. The lessons learned during this session were valuable and greatly appreciated. To receive a copy of the slideshow presentation and mock contract files, contact Michelle Pergal.

Jackrabbit visits NESAD!

Recently NESAD’s official graphic design club, Graduate Association of Graphic Artists (GAGA), held a luncheon critique and invited their friends from Jackrabbit Design to play. NESAD students brought in their portfolio or a current design project that they were currently working on while rabbits Dave Belyea and Kyle VonIderstein would provide critical feedback on their work and professional advice in the field of Graphic Design.

The event was a hit and GAGA plans to do similar events in the future! For more information on GAGA contact Michelle Pergal or Craig Dudley.
