VISC 302 - Journal 5

Jacob Trollback

- Works with motion design, focuses on story telling.
- When you work in one field for a long time you learn what is right
- Self-taught as a designer, DJ at a club and made flyers
- What are you saying? Eventually, you want to make a difference.
- Why are you doing what you are doing?
- Make someone feel confident, happy about something and piggy back your message on the back of that (though emotional work is on a personal level)
- Making emotional design involves leaving something out (participation)
- Be inspired, tell stories, leave things out (let their personal imagination fill it in)
- Take pride in personal discoveries (use imagination, what if? different patters, story telling)
- Moving typographic messages for the theme "dangerous ideas" (ex. testostirone)
- The discovery times video literally gave me goose-bumps... And I really like that song they used.
