To the delight of aspiring graphic designers here at California State University of Los Angeles (CSULA), Kim Baer was brought to our school on behalf of GAUGE, the AIGA student group at CSULA, to share with us her knowledge and experience of the field. Baer is a well heralded graphic designer who has succeeded in the field of design for her dedication to her eye for work and now has an established design studio in the city of Pasadena, "KBDA". The event was free and open to the public as it was hosted at the Music Hall on campus. By the end of the presentation, I was able to say I was honestly proud to have been in her presence.
Bear's presentation was titled "A Life of Graphic Design: 30 Years of Fantastic Fourth-Grade Field Trips." Baer provided me an insightful and inspiring point of view. To learn of her success was greatly appreciated. Her most notable statement that compelled me was that it's important to renew my job once I have engaged in a career that I plan on staying in. Innovation is most definitely key if I am to withstand the demands of such a rigorous field. I am an immediate admirer of hers because she sponsors inquisitiveness. I have always made it my business to satisfy my curiosity, but I must admit that I have not always taken that initial step further to my benefit. Perhaps I need to pursue deeper insight from others on similar levels as Mrs. Baer.
Adjectives:
