The Upstate NY Chapter of AIGA invites the 2012 graduating graphic design students of New York to our 4th Annual Student Portfolio Review, this year in 3 locations: Albany, Rochester, and Syracuse.

THE EVENT:
The review is a chance for you to practice your interview skills and get valuable feedback from local professionals about your design work and resume in a no-risk, non-competitive environment geared at preparing you for the professional interviewing process.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
You will receive objective advice and thoughtful one-on-one commentary and criticism of your design work from local design educators, professional designers, and potential employers. While this event is not a job fair, some reviewers may be looking for potential employees or interns. This event is a great way to discuss your work, network and become aware of who's who in your local design community.

WHO CAN ATTEND:
Students: The review is open to college seniors, 2011 graduates, and MFA candidates (maximum capacity of 50 students at the Albany venue)
Reviewers: The review is open to local art and design professionals and educators.

COST:
AIGA Student members: $10 | Student non-members: $15 | Portfolio reviewers: Free

WHAT TO BRING:
Bring 12-15 pieces of your best work from your portfolio, as well as multiple copies of your resume and business cards. If you plan on showing interactive or rich-media work, please bring a fully-charged laptop and extension cord.

Power is back on after the hurricane and we are back in the studio steadfast at work. Please note—the following songs are now on the 'do not play' list: Scorps: Rock You Like a Hurricane, Neil Young: Like a Hurricane, and anything from the Grateful Dead's Wake of the Flood. Currently in heavy rotation: the entire discography from AC/DC as well as Def Leppard's High 'n Dry.

Thanks to the Albany Ad Club for a great Sayonori! event Friday night, and congrats to all the winners (.pdf)
