Happy Days! It's Brandy Porter and Kirk Sieder for your PSA Critique! What a Coup(le)!

It just doesn't get any better than this....I've invited Brandy Porter, Director of Design at Big Nerd Ranch and Kirk Sieder, Creative Director for JWT Advertising to be the guest critics at your PSA campaign critiques.  

They can only attend on Wednesday November 5th which means moving the originally scheduled critique from Monday to Wednesday. All worth it of course!

They are both successful graduates of our design program and both are our top alumni who have continuously supported our program, faculty and designers. I treasure these two wonderfully talented and humorous colleagues more than you'll ever know. I'm sure you will enjoy hearing their comments about your campaigns. Be prepared. Practice your presentations beforehand to insure the information is clear, concise and creative.

   





























Brandy Porter
Director of Design & Instructor

Brandy has had an interest in advertising and marketing from a young age. As a child, she would sit through an entire commercial break and judge the ads, and then wander away during the actual show. She started working in ad agencies at age 18, and then really took her skills to the streets after graduating Magna Cum Laude from Georgia State University with a BFA in Graphic Design. Since then she’s spent time at ad agencies, design firms and corporations, all while honing her traditional and interactive design skills.

But she’s not all about work. She’s also into all kinds of stitching, like embroidery and quilting, though she tends to add a counter cultural nerdy spin to much of what she creates. Also, for some reason she knows the lyrics to most Top 40 songs from the past 50 years. And she’s not as harmless as she looks - clay pigeons everywhere are scared stiff of her crack shot with a 12-gauge.
