Art Center Brand Monkeys
Art Center visit to Giant Robot Los Angeles. Mark Todd, artist, illustrator, and overall do it yourself type of guy actually pitched a class that's about illustration and advertising. Sort of crossing some lines which are already crossed in the real world of artists trying to make it, this is a class that actually is pushing these young artists to think and create. The kids who came showed us their wares, and the overall level of creativity, conceptualization, and even the marketing ideas were exciting. Maybe this should just be a major. Each person showed us their projects and I can't wait to see some of them. It's also a great honor to have a group of students who are paying up the yin yang for their education to spend some time with us. I'd like to think we offer insight and more into the actual market they want to hit – whether it's the type of shop or even the clientele. In some ways, I wish a class would visit us every week. It's actually as refreshing for me, as I'd hope it is for them.
