SPD update

DateFebruary 13, 2010 at 2:59 PM

The Society of Publication Designers have announced the contenders for their medal categories. Although UPPERCASE magazine isn't in those top few, the saying "It is an honour to be nominated" certainly holds true. I'm certainly not disappointed; I'm elated that the magazine was in their top 16 for magazine of the year. It was like getting an Oscar nomination for directing an indie film and being up against Spielberg and Scorsese!

I'm proud of the first three issues of UPPERCASE, which is what the judges were evaluating, but I feel that it is with our current issue #4 that I've found my stride with the typography and page design, but more significantly with the management and organization of its content. So it is only going to get better!

Thanks for all your kind comments and congratulations this week. Have a great weekend, everyone.

I wish SPD had a readers' choice award for 2010, so your enthusiastic subscribers, contributors & supporters could nominate UPPERCASE for one of the medals.

Congratulations!! Those other publications may be good, but only Uppercase has a spot on the top shelf of my bookcase where I keep my very favorite books.:)

Oscar is offend measurement for money film brings in, not necessary for it's artistic value!
