Be A Design Cast 40 : Back to Design School

by Nate Voss, (6 comments)

Featuring the Top Ten Things To Do When You Get Back To Design School. Also this week we delve into Halo 3 Mountain Dew because while it is a blatant marketing ploy, it is still a mixture of two things we love. And the can rocks. We do all this with aplomb, and with the Design Princess herself, Ashley McFeely. Finally our intro/outro for BADCast 40 comes from K-Dub so non-design gangstas watch out.

There’s some other news I forgot? That’s right. The Be A Design Cast is going to Nashville! We’ll be in town September 15, 2007, for Think Tank (the AIGA event), where Bennett, Donovan and I will drop mind-grapes into the open mouths that are your brains. And we’re cooking up a BADCast goodie for all the listeners who attend, so we’ll see you there!

You know, I might just take you up on that offer to come on down to Nashville. I’ve been in NYC all summer with only one slight getaway to Toronto — could certainly use a roadtrip, especially one that’s tax deductible. More to follow.

You know it, Prescott. We’ll be partying down in The Nash the evening after the conference, too. Hope to see you there —

When I heard about the H3 Mountain Dew, I screamed (quietly) in pain. I was also anticipating the soda announcement on the podcast.

I never deny my inner-nerd. This is going to sound scary. Nate, will you add me to your friends list (I’m nerdBOY01)?. None of my friends are fellow nerds & I wanna play H3 with/against someone I actually know. We could have a designers deathmatch!

It’s ON NerdBoy, I mean, Jamie.

Actually, there will be plenty of Halo 3 on this site between now and release, because I get to post whatever I want.

5 bucks says BK is going to have toys and promotional material! Even though I love H3, for some reason ALL the promotional material that will cover this game sickens me. It’s still JUST a freggin’ game!, albeit it’s the most anticipated game of all time. More anticipated than MGS 4 (or is it 5?) is going to suck! Teasin, sorta!

Dunno if the gamertag needs to match exactly, but when you look it up. I noticed you wrote NerdBOY01, just to clarify, it’s nerdBOY01.
