Michael Osborne Design – AIGA Vegas event (recap)
0AIGA Las Vegas sponsored an event last night with Michael Osborne, an outstanding designer from the Bay Area. Special thanks to the people and companies that made it happen. It was great to see the awesome work his studio is doing with package design. We do many of the same services for our clients here in LV – and yes, we took lots of notes. Who wouldn’t?
Osborne showed us some killer portfolio work, talked for a bit about his recent MFA experience and his studio’s commercial work, as well as his “Love” series stamps for the US Postal Service. Can you imagine going to a press check for a 2-billion-piece print run? Crazy. (Sometimes we have trouble getting some of my print runs to hit the 1000 piece minimum!)
The part of the night that was truly exceptional was the work of Osborne’s non-profit organization called Joey’s Corner. It really hits on the concept of “What does your design do?” Kudos on making a difference, Mr. Osborne.
In recent weeks, we’ve signed on to produce design for two non-profit organizations, and we continue to supply package design and product photography to just about every casino in Las Vegas. We only hope to gain the respect and recognition that MOD has. Thanks to Mr. Osborne and his team for setting the standard by which we’ll be measuring our work.
