Limonade: a short film about creative unemployment

Posted in 15. Video, 19. Other by Hellodesign on January 6, 2010

What do people who were once paid to be creative for a living do when they re laid off? They get creative with their own lives. Lemonade is an inspirational film about 16 advertising professionals who lost their jobs and found their calling, encouraging people to listen to that little voice inside their head that asks, What if? All resources for Lemonade were donated. From cameras to flights to lights, this is a project by and for those who have been affected by unemployment.

Posted in 19. Other by Hellodesign on October 31, 2009

design_for _life_02

Vroom. Here comes Philippe Starck on his motorbike to save British design. We’re in the home of British design, Paris, so it’s more like Vreurm. The 12 contenders on BBC2’s Design for Life applaud rapturously. If this was The Apprentice – the long-running reality show on which Design for Life has been closely modelled – you could imagine the no-nonsense entrepreneur Sir Alan Sugar scowling at this kind of toadying. But this isn’t Sralan, it’s Fleep, and Fleep laps it up…

d421

In August of 2008, thirteen designers from a broad variety of disciplines and backgrounds met to discuss our individual and collective experiences as practitioners and educators in the design field. The importance of staying connected to one another, sharing our success stories with others in the industry and within communities of color, encouraging diversity within the design industry, and influencing the growth and development of the next generation of designers were key themes of the discussion. As such, it became clear that an entity, a network of sorts, was needed to help facilitate these conversations and initiatives.
