“Stay creative by doing.” This is just one of the many nuggets of wisdom that Matt Strelecki shared throughout the episode. Matt is an award-winning designer from Meredith Agrimedia and he has quite the impressive resume. Many of the ideas Matt and Kelsey discuss in this episode are not only for a graphic designer’s ear but ag communicators in general. We talk about design and its method of problem-solving, how to stay innovative and trendy in our industry, rebrands and redesigns, how to work on projects in addition to your full-time job, and ultimately how design always leads back to connecting with your audience.
