think in event partnership with Adobe South Africa
A partnership between Adobe South Africa and the South African Graphik Design Council, think, for the upcoming Adobe Live and ISTD Typ04 Conferences will result in great benefits for graphic design educational institutions, students of graphic design and professional members of think.
This national conference will take place in Johannesburg on Tuesday the 19th of October at Montecasino - Fourways and in Cape Town on Thursday the 21st of October at The Bay Hotel - Camps Bay.
Adobe has agreed to offer a 10% discount on conference tickets for all think members and a limited number of tickets have been made available for students at a discount of R200 off the full ticket price of R350.
Adobe Accredited institutions also qualify for two free tickets to be awarded at the discretion of the department head. This represents an excellent occasion for these institutions, together with think and Adobe, to reward excellence in graphic design among students and provide an additional training opportunity to students who otherwise may not be able to attend this conference.
Also, in concert with the conference, John McMillan, Education Officer for the International Society of Typographic Designers (ISTD) and Senior Lecturer at Ulster University, will present a lecture on typography in design education and the ISTD students award scheme. This presentation, to be held on Monday, 18 October at 16:00 at Vega School, is open to all lecturers of graphic design at no charge.
"In the spirit of developing and promoting good educational practice, think encourages representatives from all institutions in the field information communications to attend this talk," says Tiffany Turkington-Palmer, member think Board of Directors.
As a supporter of Adobe Live and ISTD typ04, think will offer a special membership package at a reduced fee to students at the Conferences in Johannesburg and Cape Town. Students who sign up as think members will be in line to win copies of the think "Decade of South African Graphic Design Excellence" book published by Affinity Publishing which retails for R395.
