Designer: Dan Blackman
Website: http://dblackman.com
Born: 1984
Graduated: 2008 from Ringling College of Art and Design
Currently: Freelancing but willing to take on full-time again
What’s the most important thing you’ve learned about design so far?
That every project you do should have some sort of process you follow from the beginning. Planning ahead helps eliminate problems later you may run into. Other than that, just keeping your head up. Everyone has projects here and there that are terrible. But biting your lip sometimes and just getting them done makes you a better person and a harder worker in the end.
What should prospective employers/clients know about you and your work?
That I’m always willing to try new things with my work and not afraid to be challenged.
Is there anything else we should know about you?
My doors are always open for new opportunities and work.
