We are the living embodiment of the “story time! WAKE UP!” TikTok sound this week, because we have some goooood stories to share… including some of our own! We’re pouring up a beer, whiskey, and shandy cocktail called “Feeling Dandy” and diving right on in with two different brands and sites who have hijacked the heck out of our images here recently and then absolutely destroyed them with some truly, truly #terrible Photoshop action.
Ah. Nothing like the sweet smell of copyright infringement.
In this stories ep, you’ll get to hear some good ole’ pain-in-the-ass client stories (it happens), fun stuff from a client who decided to launch 3 (!!!) businesses at the same time but didn’t want to pay full-price for the branding — because of course — and some confusing, rockstar-esque, what-does-it-MEAN feedback one freelancer got from a university marketing team. Plus, we’re musing on the difference between commercial work, personal work, and art… which turned out to be a great convo.
So, story time! WAKE UP!
(Can you tell we’ve been watching lots of TikTok…? But, really — have fun!)
