Reviews Gone Bad: Sketchbook: Conceptual Drawings from the World’s Most Influential Designers by Timothy O’Donnell

July 7th, 2009 | by Nate Voss
Posted In: Reviews Gone Bad, Video

Our new reviews program stumbles and bumbles onward — the biggest takeaways from this week’s doubly-filmed review are 1.) make sure there’s nothing not green between you and your green-screen before filming, and 2.) light blue is apparently too close to bright green not to make yourself look like an erie ghost upon re-filming. Perhaps we can use that to our advantage come Halloween-time.

Regardless! We bring to you our review of Timothy O’Donnell’s SKETCHBOOK, which we interviewed him about a few weeks ago on the Reflex Blue Show. The book surprised me, and I found that there can actually be something worth reading in a book filled with giant, gorgeous pictures. Click below to watch the review.

Reviews Gone Bad: 100 Habits of Successful Freelance Designers

June 23rd, 2009 | by Nate Voss
Posted In: Reviews Gone Bad, Video

Welcome to our brand new feature — more than 30 years in the making — Reviews Gone Bad. Yes, we are aware that we have created a powerful design acronym, and now we seek to create something much greater.

Some people might shrug off launching a new feature as lo-fi as we have here, (and lo-fi afficionados should buckle-up) the content is there, if not the proper tools. This will be corrected with time, I imagine. For now, check out the video by clicking the link below. Eventually this regular feature will be available as a video podcast an in other media, but for now you can get it right here:
