Thank you, THANK YOU.
Class
time this morning was useful and we discussed our group project a
little more. Jenessa, Vy, Mikki, and I are in a group together and our
topic is on evaluating students rather than using standardized tests. We
feel that standardized testing is the easy way out because its so
practical, so we are proposing solutions to it. Instead of regurgitating
what you hear in class, we think there should be other methods of
measuring a student’s intelligence. This may include visual learning,
interactivity, and observation. Standardized testing does not measure
integrity, work ethic, passion, or open mindness… the things that are
really important. I think we have some pretty good thoughts and plans on
how we want to approach our topic. Brian, you will be proud ;)

We then went to THANK YOU which is a design firm who does motion, graphics, branding, interactive, everything pretty much. They are the dream team. They showed us their SWATCH watches campaign which was freaking AMAZING. Their motion work was beautiful, including their storyboards. My favorite part of their SWATCH campaign was the Snap Dance that they did for MTV. They are truly a group of talented people. They were founded about 6 years ago and the three guys who started it started in a Danish broadcast television company. So all of the graphics, branding, interactive design was new to them. They did transfer their knowledge of what they did in broadcast television to THANK YOU because a lot of the processes were similar. Their attitude towards work is awesome. They follow their instincts and don’t really have a set plan. I admire that about these guys because they are so brave. They were inspirational and I hope to be like them one day. :)

Their SWATCH designs

Yeah, I really saw this while walking to the studio… hahaha

Family italian potluck dinner was great. EVERYTHING was so delicious.. The presentation of food was superb. We are definitely designers… Thank you everyone for being an amazing group of people. I am so glad I was able to spend these 4 weeks in Copenhagen with such kind hearted, talented, and awesome people. Now i’m off to a food coma.


My contribution: fruit, cookies, and candles to set the mood of course..

The family :)
