Sometimes we forget that all the great achievers, the most successful people in history, failed many times before succeeding. But they did not give up.
Failure is part of life: “If you’ve never failed, you’ve never lived.”
Here’s an inspiring video on persevering no matter how many times you have failed in life.
Thought that print was dead? These magazine executives don’t think so.
(That’s obviously a good thing for Graphic Designers and those in the print and publishing industries).
Have a look at what they have to say about Magazines and the Power of Print! In this short video, leaders of five major magazine companies talk about the vitality of magazines as a medium.
The “Magazines, The Power of Print” campaign will launch in nearly 100 magazines, reaching 112 million readers per month, to promote the strength of—and consumer commitment to—magazines.
Thanks to A View from an Ad Guy for spotting this!

“May these gates never be closed,” the commentator reads. We share more than a long border, explains Tom Brokaw.
This inspiring video that explains the relationship between Canada and The United States, is a pre-recorded short film that aired on NBC prior to the Opening Ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver on February 12, 2010. Yes, Canada!
The second last line of the video is the greatest.
Even if you’ve never heard of “OCAD”, you probably know what it looks like, if you’ve visited downtown Toronto. The Ontario College of Art + Design (OCAD) which is, yes, a University, went through a major expansion into what we know it as today.
I’m excited to be studying in this “table top” or building on “stilts” or “pencils” as some people refer to it, known as the Sharp Centre for Design. The Design faculty and classes are located up there, and other faculties are mainly located below it and across the street.
I decided to search YouTube for videos on OCAD, and there’s not as much out there as there probably should be (or at least they’re hard to find). So I’ve put a few on here to share.
I came across old video segments from 2003 and 2004, during and after the expansion was complete. It’s really interesting and pretty amusing looking back at when it was so new, before I was very aware of it. Some comments are hillarious. Some people were strongly against it, some people didn’t think it was possible. Now we go to school there and it’s a pretty iconic part of Toronto’s skyline. Enjoy the random videos, below.
In my second year at OCAD, I went to a presentation given by OCAD’s architectt, Will Alsop, who visited from England. A very unique, inspiring man.
