Troy’s Graphic Design Blog: Being Who You Really Are
http://www.troydjohnsondesign.com/2015/03/being-who-you-really-are.html
Troy’s Graphic Design Blog. Monday, March 30, 2015. Being Who You Really Are. This is all awfully uplifting for a Monday morning, but since I managed to run across the same theme in a couple different places, I thought I would go ahead and share. First off, I read an essay on a biography of E.E. Cummings. On Brain Pickings, with the wonderful pull quote:. 8220;It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.”.

Troy’s Graphic Design Blog: Write Another Cover Letter
http://www.troydjohnsondesign.com/2013/11/write-another-cover-letter.html
Troy’s Graphic Design Blog. Tuesday, November 5, 2013. Write Another Cover Letter. The classic cover letter has four paragraphs plus the salutation and signature. Each paragraph has three or four sentences. Tight, succinct writing is important since a hiring manager has a lot of applications to wade through. There are a lot of opinions about what information is most important and what order it should go in, but the general overview stays pretty consistent. The Second Paragraph: What is your experience?

With little effort the attackers attach their bile to something greater than that of which they are capable. This dissonance — venom effortlessly and thoughtlessly spat upon...Emphasis mine&#...

Troy’s Graphic Design Blog: Modernism vs. Hyperbole
http://www.troydjohnsondesign.com/2015/04/modernism-vs-hyperbole.html
Troy’s Graphic Design Blog. Thursday, April 9, 2015. Modernism vs. Hyperbole. What made me think of this is that I ran across a page of really silly images called, “If you add drunk people to fitness quotes.”. Words that are objective, audience focused, and free of hyperbole are inseparable from their context and that is the lasting power of modernist design. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Troy’s Graphic Design Blog. Wednesday, November 13, 2013. The Bear and The Hare. The Bear and The Hare,. John Lewis's Christmas advertisement has been making waves across the internet. Some folks are already saying it is the best holiday ad of the season and we haven't even gotten to Thanksgiving yet! Notice how it is part of a larger campaign that not only goes across platforms, but encourages continued interaction with the John Lewis brand. The way it was made is super cool.
