The Reflex Blue Show Season Three Finale: The Twitter Show!
March 10th, 2011 |Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show
Our last show of 2010! In 2011!
We take questions from the field of Twitter (follow the site on @36point, Nate @vossome, and Donovan @eleven19), and then, we talk about them! It’s a killer end to the season, really. It at least gave me an excuse to turn Tron Girl there into InDesign Tron Girl. Which I love.
So listen up!

The Reflex Blue Show, Season 2, Episode 10: Educating Your Clients
July 31st, 2009 |Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show
The return of Adam Nielsen brings us to discuss our opinions on a couple of listener questions. Tony from Illustrate Omaha asks “How do you educate a client about your process without it all going over their heads?” and Mig Reyes has wondered, “What’s the value in getting included in books? For newer designers, what are tips on getting in?”
We also stop for three minutes to review a student portfolio site by Geoff Thibeau.
After the recording, we had so much energy left that we decided to go see the Omaha Royals play some AAA ball, where Nate (dressed as a corn cob) raced previous guests Tom Nemitz (in a beer suit) and Robert Maguire (wearing a very manly steak outfit) right in the middle of the second inning in front of a crowd of thousands. And cob wins!

The Reflex Blue Show, Season 2, Episode 9: Summah-Time Fun
July 17th, 2009 |Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show
Adam Nielsen stops by the studio to discuss the best way to distract ourselves from actual work during the summer. We break it down to five types of distractions for designers: website, design event, movie/concert, items to hunt for, and non-design event.
To make sure our answers are on-track, we asked design experts Sean Adams, Justin Ahrens, Steve Hartman, Steven Heller, and Debbie Millman the correct answers, and read them on the show. Hartman even brings photos to back up his answer.
What are your distractions for the summer? Leave them in the comments below.
