When we were watching the video of happyslip in class, I was fascinated with the humor and how "right" she is with the advertisement on the home security infomercial. Her videos can be easily related because she involves REAL PEOPLE in her videos.
When she was in class the other day, she talked a lot about feedback and networking. As a creative designer, we must learn from feedbacks from others, positive and negative. Negative feedbacks are what helps a designer improve on his/her projects. Networking helps broaden a designer's circumference of people to make his/her work universal. Christine Gambito talked about viral marketing and how it helped her get to where she is now.
One more thing she emphasized about was: as a creative artist, one must find inspirations from anywhere and everywhere. Find creativity outside of yourselves. Be "unfashionable" as Housefield says. Do what you want to do and don't have people stop you from doing it. That's what happyslip is about. That's what design is about.
