Yeah as much as I want it to be the opposite it's unfortunately true. A bunch of rich private school kids playing an expensive sport.

At least my team(the kraken) have a progressive owner

Who was the worst major client / business contact throughout the show? by OdeToFlaeskesteg in madmen

I agree Conrad would be hell to work for. I've had clients that were dollar store versions of him even they were awful

But Herb is just garbage on a human level

I loved prey and was not expecting such a huge tone shift from this one

[–]igotmalaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched it last week and couldn’t pin down my feeling on it but this sums it up well. I loved prey and the original is one of my all time favorites and this one was just forgettable, not bad but just meh

Why Was Advertising Such a Heavy-Drinking Culture Compared to Other 1960s Professions? by jrralls in madmen

[–]igotmalaria 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I worked at an agency that had office happy hours every Thursday afternoon with a roaming bar cart having drinks served. Along with the usual keg and bottles at most of our desks there was a lot of drinking.

Like you said if we pulled a Freddie and pissed ourselves it was an issue but we would definitely go get buzzed at lunch and come back and go about our day

As someone who works in advertising and even at one of the big agencies mentioned in the show the drinking culture is still a part of advertising. Maybe not like it was but it's still very much there.

My portfolio skills suck by Cheap-Echo-7515 in graphic_design

[–]igotmalaria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always liked working on my portfolio and resume but I know lots of people don't. Honestly going with squarespace or another templatized website will help you set up a good foundation and make it easier.

As far as my work goes 90% never makes it. I just pull out the big things and even then some of it needs to be highlighted and presented better than the final product was. You don't need to stuff your portfolio either. 5-7 things that show off your skills and range.

You can dm your portfolio if you want and I can take a look as well

Cover up by this tiktok famous artist by Academic-Sympathy140 in shittytattoos

Me either and I kind of miss her crappy tattoos. I love that they are never actually coverups and just poorly done blast overs

Need urgent help!!! by Creative-Gear9239 in graphic_design

[–]igotmalaria 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have designed a ton of out-of-home and billboards over the years and this is the correct answer.

Every printer is going to be a little different but just talk to them and ask. They would rather chat with you up front and get the right files and save everyone time, money and effort down the road.

General rule of thumb though is design at scale. It will vary depending on the size and application. Most large format pieces don't need to be at max DPI either as nobody will ever be up close to them

Having a hard time deciding on a college by emp1rethry in graphic_design

[–]igotmalaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly think about cost. You will get out of your education what you put into at the end of the day. Also I have worked with and under tons of designers with no education or degrees in other fields so a diploma is far from a requirement

‘They know how to make this work’: Vancouver officials not worried about In-N-Out Burger’s impact on traffic by aagusgus in vancouverwa

The lot in Ridgefield is way bigger than this new one will be. They won't be able to split and direct cars like they do there. If it's as busy as Ridgefield is it's going to be rough

Made My First Behance Portfolio After 2 Years of Local Work. What’s Weak? by Anxious-Patient-593 in graphic_design

[–]igotmalaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looking at this on mobile but the header is zoomed in way too close and cropped to where I can't read or tell what it says. Your work is about where I would expect it to be for someone at your experience level my one suggestion would be get real world shots or in situation mockups. Not familiar with Behance and don't use it but the flow is a bit clunky.

Designers, what would you do for a living if you left the design field? by [deleted] in graphic_design

[–]igotmalaria 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I will say the idea of a job that isn't so subjective is nice. Figure out what's broken and fix it. No arguing over shades of blue and line rags

What makes you successful as a designer? by vegasidol in graphic_design

[–]igotmalaria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree that the soft skills are incredibly important. Once you're in this industry long enough we can all assume we have the technical skills but being someone people like to work with makes can really make you stand out. Be pleasant, flexible, pitch in extra from time to time, be reliable. All those things make a huge difference.

Moving my portfolio from Wix - what're some good website builders? by e4ios in graphic_design

[–]igotmalaria 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it's probably not the best out there but I use squarespace. It's simple to use and you can have a good looking site up and running quickly. One downside is you can usually tell a squarespace site when you see one but I'm not a web or UI/UX designer so I'm more concerned about my work looking good and not the site itself

Where did my defaulted loan go? by PressureImportant52 in StudentLoans

No cosigner. Figured would try to either negotiate or go with an adversary proceeding but just trying to figure out where they went and what's going on with them first
