What a creative designer ad type guy experiences daily

REJECTION!

Poster take one by colleague: Rejecting it.

My notes are as follows:

The blond hair looks bad, I like my tattoo though. But our burlesque names are too tiny and that font SUCKS too garish not pretty or sexy come-hither enough, way too grinchy (and in my head I think just because I am doing a Mr. Grinch solo does not mean you have to make an entire fucking poster around it) and I dont make stupid gay nerdy puns, jiggles? (jingles) F. North Pole jiggles? Show me anywhere where I said to put THAT on. I said Classic Burlesque Christmas, I don’t see that ANYWHERE.

Stop trying to be creative designy control guy and do what the client asks for and NO MORE THAN THAT. Where is Bovine’s branding too? I think I want the hair to go back to the way it was before but you confused me with vanity by putting my tattoo on her arm so now I am in a bind and ENRAGED by that. Recreate the wheel EXACTLY as I tell you to! Add my blog address too and why is the time so tiny down there? We aren’t hiding that people have to pay door cover. Trying to find Haunted Harem poster to show an example of a GOOD poster. Please add SUNDAY too and don’t make the “pm” floating above the 9 cos it’s confusing.

All in all, I now I have to wait LONGER to start my FB event so THANK YOU for that.

Love Raymeh.

It’s better to be feared than loved apparently haha.

ps. where are my new business cards I have been requesting for 2 months now?

This post is brought to you by Reed Switch, bitch. Lol it rhymes.

  1. The poster look great overall. I guess the burlesque part come from the nudity. The tattoo is cute. Your getting business cards? That’s nice. Show us the business card too if you can finally get it one day :)

  2. I go through business cards like crazy, we are working on a new design right now, passively, too passively. This poster looks like a science experiment, not horrible but still offensive. its the blond in the middle that really bothers me, looks bad. Off-putting. I have high standards and strict guidelines and probably should learn to do this myself.

  3. Wow. This post could be subtitled “Never work with Raymi.” Whatever you pay designers can’t be worth this nasty public bashing of their work. The poster does suck, but that was pretty harsh.

  4. Joanne, I am a schematic visionary, (not to mention, comedic genius) and always right. If this was a man’s take down you’d “lol” and carry on. Colleague couldn’t leave me if he tried, he knows this was in fun and likes the blog attention. Do you understand what unique content looks like? (you just experienced it!) I have been doing this for eleven years now kiddo and used to rip people apart on a regular basis, and they enjoy that about Raymi’s persona. Buy the hype all you like, though but I do not “work” like this with everyone or talk to everyone this way and then blog it (you are stupid for even thinking that) and this isn’t even work, it’s a fucking flyer and I wouldn’t ever actually “hire” someone to do a poster when you just steal the pin up off google and write all the info and copy yourself. Wake up before leaving stupid comments here in the future ok and don’t read my blog if you can’t handle it cos clearly you can’t. I accept your apology in advance.

  5. Before reading Raymi’s comments, I put on my nutty-buddy cup and take a deep breath…

    “The blond hair looks bad, I like my tattoo…. But aruuufff ruufff ruff wufff rrrr… (envisioning darty eyes of kill with R’s head bursting plumes of volcanic rage–good way to clear your ear wax actually)…”

    “… and WHEN DID I EVER SAY @#^%* JIGGLES &^^%%###$!!!! Don’t paraphrase for me ok?!?!! you don’t have license to dictate my art direction!!!…”

    “…GET BACK on the computer and FIX IT, slave!”

    Your lovely Raymbo, toodles.”

    PS back: what’s a business card? 2012 knocking. smartphones, anyone? you’re killing trees, unnecessarily.

    However, I do know her IRL. For her to make this into a post on the first round of mockups, comical honestly and most of the points were valid…(I would assert till this blog dies that she has said dorky things like “Jiggles”) but at least it got the ball rolling for where not to go.

    If anything the post served as a barometer that people are paying attention and for that we both appreciate…hope to see you all come out on the 18th!

  6. Dude you just need to figure out how to psychically transmit your vision to the designer. I see this happen all the time in the film biz.

    But on a serious note, if u know lauren…this is her humour…and also the reason why most people love her.

    As always please keep saying it how it is…so many females in society still think its 1950…its not. Female opinions are needed in our society…especially opinions that are truthful and hilarious at the same time.
