Ok this post is about to make me sound ancient… what are we doing with that pina zangaro portfolio book that’s been stuffed in the back of the closet for a solid decade now?

I was thinking of making it into a sort of coffee table book with family photos in the sleeves. But I’m having a really hard time repurposing it. So much time printing and trimming! My professors swore it was an *investment*! There’s no universe in which I use this thing again professionally, right?

I’ve thought about that recently, too. It was so expensive to build a book. Print it out, and everything.

I still have mine somewhere and I have no clue what to do with it. Maybe we start a museum of the books that got current creative leaders their first jobs?

I’ve been meaning to sell mine on eBay ever since I produced my first tv spot

Go for it! : )

Oh the hundreds of dollars wasted on supplies that my professors told me I HAD to buy…

I like the museum idea, we can all enter through an arch of old xacto blades in acrylic or something 😅

Ha shit. I still have mine too. It was clear acrylic with a frost effect and my logo screen printed in it. Thanks for bringing me back. Last year I used it was 2012.

1 thing that has resonated with me on this App throughout Covid, is that the beliefs I held about my consulting colleagues were completely & totally wrong. A variety of the discussions, particularly those re: the political environment in the US & the widespread movement to pursue equality, have demonstrated that many of my peers are sociopaths incapable of exercising the same objective & critical thinking skills they they apply when charging clients hundreds hundreds of dollar an hour.

In a way, i do the job so well that i get asked to do more AD projs and guide more projs — but then: wtf does my CD do? They mostly just 👍🏻what i direct n approve
