My evening Grafika Every year I attend the evening Grafika where are presented the awards for best achievements in graphic design in Quebec. This year, I imagined what was going to say Thursday, February 10 at the Metropolis (note: text for insiders only).
- This is the last time I entered a competition.
- I do not know why I even came to the awards ceremony, we always see the same faces.
- No, I'm not fru.
- It's easy to understand: there is good design and bad design. I chose to make bad design to pay my mortgage.
- It was you who worked on their last annual report? ... No, I like it, but finally, Myriad Pro, this is not my thing. It's a little Scout.
- The trend I'm missing this year. It lacks Wow.
- Anyway, it's always the same clique who wins. I am disgusted.
- nurses, they do not participate in any contest. Yet, I find they are more useful than the designers.
- I have no chance to get on the course ; I just Quebec.
- Paprika If still wins the grand prize, I go into exile in Berlin.
- What are you doing now? Long time no see your name.
- How his name already, the guys Feed ... The other, I mean.
- I think it's extortion, pure and simple. I have no budget Cossette me. I am self-employed, me not Texan with multinational and Chinese shareholders.
- You think Mario will thank Christian Bégin?
- I say that design that is not for sale, it is not used much, except to feed the ego of a gang ... I understand. I am, I know.
- There should be a category for the design of circular. Not laugh: it's much harder to make a nice circular cover of a trendy novel that nobody will ever read.
- Oh, you teach now? Do not you like to design?
- Why we never drinks champagne at the awards ceremony? I'm tired of Boris.
- I do not get it to graphic design and I'll get into the restaurant, like.
- It has nothing to do with the design is the animation. They'd better sign up for Genies.
- How did you do to become a teacher at UQAM? You have not slept with Metz, anyway!?
- I do not know if it's true, but I heard that Philip was going to do next Lamarre model of Monday, under a pseudonym.
- They should give a prize for writing flyers.
- In 2012, I enrolled as a jury.
- I thought you ought not to come? Me? Oh, it's Gerard who twisted my arm to my companion.
- Oh, there I just sent two to three pieces. Finally ... four to five. Maybe six, I do not remember ...
- I know all the results, but I can not say anything. Unless you pay me a drink, obviously.
- You do not hear about your friend Charles. He went back to France where he worked for Sid Lee?
- The trend is really anything. And we may say, but anything, even beautiful, this is the anything.
- For you, it's super easy to earn money: did you just right customers.
- I too could win 15 prizes, so I presented 40 pieces.
- I think everything looks like this year. Even you have the same glasses as me.
- Bravo for your price. It really deserved. If I am sincere.
- Not hard to win when all your friends are on the jury.
- Well, well, next year.
