Spec Work and Crowdsourcing: Gambles that Don't Pay Off

The economy's in the toilet and you're hungry for jobs, so you're working on spec or posting designs to sites like CrowdSpring. It's understandable. The problem is, spec and crowdsourcing can lower your value and hourly rates so far that minimum wage looks like a fat paycheck. Here's what to do instead.

AIGA | the professional association for design and it's position on spec work:

AIGA believes that doing speculative work—that is, work done without compensation, for the client’s speculation—seriously compromises the quality of work that clients are entitled to and also violates a tacit, long-standing ethical standard in the communication design profession worldwide.

Living in the world of have and have not?

I felt compelled to share this quote today:

"May we never let the things we can't have, or don't have, or shouldn't have, spoil our enjoyment of the things we do have and can have. As we value our happiness let us not forget it, for one of the greatest lessons in life is learning to be happy without the things we cannot or should not have."

– Richard L. Evans

Ode to the amateur logo

Just read this story about logo design. Designer vs Client. Great read.

I think we all need to be reminded from time to listen more and be more willing to meet a little closer to half way. After all, even though the logo itself may not need to tell the "whole story" it still needs to convey a feeling about the brand.

Hey Bridget. Life's been treating me okay. How are you? How are things going? The move went well. Thanks for asking. We're pretty much settled in. Enjoying being back in the city. I'm still trying to get back on my feet job wise. The market is pretty tough everywhere obviously. But until then I'm trying to keep myself busy.
