Glee :: Smash | Olive
https://olivenyc.wordpress.com/2012/02/20/glee-smash
Glee : Smash February 20, 2012. There’s been a lot of hype about the new NBC show Smash. And even more comparisons with the seasoned musical drama/comedy Glee. So I caught an episode of Smash to check it out and I was…not really impressed. Perhaps it’s because I am largely unfamiliar with the inner workings of Broadway and the “struggling actor” complex. Don’t Stop Believin’. Smash, on the other hand, is built upon an age-old stereotype. From Glee; let’s not pretend that it is better. Here’s where we nee...

Nuela February 12, 2012. It’s been months since I’ve posted – pretty much ever since accepting a Junior Designer. Position, I haven’t had much time to veg/unwind, much less spend time blogging. But last night’s meal definitely calls for some documentation. I made a reservation to Nuela. A fabulous girlfriend introduced me to this website for discounted meals at high-end restaurants. Sans all the fuss of print-outs like at Groupon). I’ve been looking to try more Latin. I am also inclined to believe that t...

Congratulations, NY!!! | Olive
https://olivenyc.wordpress.com/2011/06/24/congratulations-ny
June 24, 2011. Same-sex marriage will be legalized in New York! I can’t believe it has taken us this long to get here, but at least WE ARE HERE! I didn’t think it was possible to love my city any more than I already do, but here you have it. High Five, Gotham City (and state)! Okay, so it was a happy coincidence that I happened upon this picture earlier today. It was featured in a post on ComicsAlliance. Maybe the people at ComicsAlliance are psychic…? Leave a Comment ».

https://olivenyc.wordpress.com/2011/08/16/2011-asian-american-international-film-festival
2011 Asian American International Film Festival August 16, 2011. This past weekend was Asian Cinevision’s 34th Annual Asian International Film Festival. At the Clearview Chelsea Cinema. I was able to watch a feature film and a series of short films at the festival. Feature Film: The Piano In A Factory. Shorts Program: Never Stop Believing. A regular night of dream delivering turns awry when the Dream Giver’s magic escapes his control. A whimsical re-imagining of the Sandman myth, this animated ...British...

Forcella | Olive
https://olivenyc.wordpress.com/2011/08/16/forcella
Forcella August 16, 2011. After hearing about Forcella. For the past several weeks, I finally made it down to Williamsburg. For a few pies. It’s great that they take reservations, unlike my other favorite Brooklyn pizza place. And surprisingly, it wasn’t that busy at 7:30pm on a Saturday night anyway. We started off with an antipasti: prosciutto e mozzarella. 8211; four slices of prosciutto di parma. Layered over a ball of homemade mozzarella. The mozzarella was amazing! The waiters were very friendly an...

Looking at Portfolios and Resumes – Pt. VI June 27, 2011. Took a little break to enjoy the summer with a day trip to Philadelphia, followed by the NYC Gay Pride Parade (finally, a reason to celebrate! Now getting back into the design world with a look at Kyle Beneventi’s Architecture Portfolio. Nice layering of images, giving texture to the pages. Big fonts for keywords. Good amount of white space for images. What has he done in the mentoring program? Leave a Comment ». Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Create...

Advice from Archinect | Olive
https://olivenyc.wordpress.com/2011/07/26/advice-from-archinect
Advice from Archinect July 26, 2011. Recently featured a 3-part article about finding and securing an architecture job for recent graduates. Highly relevant, don’t you think? You can read all three parts, and then my thoughts following each one. Part 1: Writing your CV and Cover Letter. It may not even have to be images (personally, I find little thumbnails of design projects on resumes to be distracting and a waste of space). Even using typography can be creative! Just here to further explain why I disl...
