The Reflex Blue Show Season Three Finale: The Twitter Show!

March 10th, 2011 | by Nate Voss
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 3, Episode 13: Talking to Clients

September 20th, 2010 | by Donovan Beery

Talking to Clients

We bring back Steve Gordon to talk about talking. And talk about piggyback rides. And talk about talking to clients. But not to talk about giving piggyback rides to clients – we have to save something for next time…

The Reflex Blue Show, Season 3, Episode 12: Letterheads and Logos

August 23rd, 2010 | by Nate Voss
Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show

Back in the studio once more! Donovan and I welcome special show-friend Joe Sparano via Oxide Design and, since they are taking on Logo and Letterhead 12 from Rockport publishing (download the free-ass entry form here), we take some time to talk about the relevancy of letterheads — once the bastion of identity design projects — in the modern world of digital communication. We also introduce a few new segments to the show, including What Are You Designing and the What’s New What’s Update.

We’re back in business over here.

The Reflex Blue Show, Season 3, Episode 11: Kevin Carroll Interview

August 4th, 2010 | by Donovan Beery
Posted In: The Reflex Blue Show

It’s only fitting that the seventh, and final, interview we recorded at the 2010 HOW Conference in Denver was with the man that handled the closing keynote.

If the goal was to have everyone leave the event inspired—done. They found the perfect person to do it. Kevin Carroll is the guy that makes you want try harder. He’s the person that reminds you to do more without actually saying the words. His books on the red rubber ball have been seen in about every design competition since they’ve been out. With reason – Willoughby Design did an amazing job bringing his words to life.

But before we can talk about what Kevin does, we talk about the after-party from the night before. Did you miss that in the schedule? Ends up DJ Noah did to, so he took it in his own hands to create one (that’s the ‘done at 3am the night before’ flyer in our graphic above). Re-live the party, or live it for the first time, with the complete music audio here. Let’s hope he DJs a party (official or not, as long as I find out about it) next year – it was a crazy time.

Just talking with Kevin got me more excited to check out the 2011 conference in Chicago than anything else. I can’t wait. Hope to see you there.
