Panel Discussion

the event is a great way for emerging graphic designers to get an idea of what its like out.
The speakers are csun alumni having graduated only a year or two ago. we got to hear first hand what to expect (long hours) and what is expected (some of the work was amazing).
there were 3 speakers who did design for 3 almost completely different industries. It was good to see the variety of available work out there. there was Dominique who worked for an online digital pet website, another speaker was Theresa who did a lot of entertainment/ key art work. she had a really nice packaging piece for 007 Quantum of Solace. The best speaker there was Max from Hamagami & Carroll. His presentation was good because he showed us the process and the evolution of his designs from when he graduated to where he is now. He was very friendly and sociable and you could get a good depiction of how it is in the life as a designer. I wished the other speakers showed their work from school as well.
and of course the free pasta and salad was good.
