FITC Toronto 2010

FITC 2010 is well underway, here at the Hilton Hotel in Toronto. Saturday’s free “Get a Job!” event managed to be considerably larger than last year and while success is in the eye of the resume-holder, I’d call it a big success. The same goes for the presentations. We’ve seen great talks from Lee Brimelow about multi-touch, great (and hilarious) advice derived from anĀ important mantra from Hoss Gifford and a wonderful look into inspirational works of the past from James White. In just a few moments Adobe presenters Richard Galvan and Mark Anders will wrap up their keynote where Flash and Adobe patriots were enticed with CS5 and wooed with Adobes future plans. The full three day schedule is here. I suspect my favorite event will be the last one.

It’s too bad a fair number of people couldn’t make it. Ash clouds. Think they own the place. No matter where you are, don’t forget to tune in online!

Each one of these logos does a great job of matching imagery with meaning in a creative and beautiful way. After almost resorting to Logo Tournament for my own logo (an embarrassing defeat for any designer), I’ve come up with a concept which will work for Archonic. Expect to see it March 1st.

If you see a logo above you think is better than the rest, then go vote!
