Intro-Active: Session 1

I'm very excited to announce a lecture series I am developing for AIGA KC. Session 1 is already filling up so register online to save your spot!

Intro-Active is a topical lecture series and moderated discussion specially developed for traditional print designers, new professionals and students interested in transitioning to or gaining a foundational knowledge of web design.

A strategic view of web design will be introduced over the course of 4 sessions. At each session selected speakers — from social media and usability experts to interactive designers and developers — will give their points of view as experienced industry professionals and arm attendees with resources, vocabulary, inspiration and confidence on relevant web design topics.

Intro-Active 1: The expanding culture of the web
Our first session will address the current paradigms of online culture, social media and highlight ways of leveraging these trends for client and project needs.

Guest Speakers
Joe Grigsby, Director of Emerging Media at VML
Lisa Qualls, CEO at Fresh ID and President of Social Media Club Kansas City
