A new campaign by Saatchi & Saatchi is sticking up for the young people who get flak for being glued to their screens. Directed by Vincent Haycock, the film at the centre of the #WhatWeDoNext campaign offers an uplifting and compelling counter-argument to the theory that young people are out of touch due to social media and other tech. Instead, it illustrates the many ways young people are instigating positive change, oftentimes using technology to get the word out.

Beauty is everywhere, and as photogs, it’s one of our principal jobs to find it. In a face, or a place. On a cliffside, overlooking a vista, in a boardroom on a grinding corporate assignment. Find something beautiful. Find a way to show someone, somehow, something different that often lies hidden in the humdrum. Create a beautiful image of someone who distinctly does not think they are beautiful and actively fears that spot in front of the camera.

Thomas Edison once said “Vision without execution is hallucination.” This statement applies not just to invention, but to graphic design. One of the greatest strengths of graphic designers is the ability to first develop a concept and then execute it to make it real. From visualization and ideation all the way through to actuation and execution, each step of this process takes skill and expertise.

It seems that whenever you just get the newest one, there are already articles and podcasts about what’s coming next. When you spend some serious cash on a smartphone, it can be very annoying.

Two information-processing systems determine the human emotional response: the affective and cognitive processing systems. The affective system operates outside of conscious thought and is reactive, in that a series of psychophysiological events are initiated automatically following the receipt of sensory information. In contrast, the cognitive processing system is conscious and involves analysis of sensory information to influence and even counteract the affective system.
