Classmate Anecdote (perfectionist)
Comments(1) Guiseppe Del Rio, a Senior at Morningside University, majoring in Graphic Design, describes himself as a perfectionist. A time when this held especially true is when working on a project in his Graphic Design Studio class.
The project consisted of creating a brand and designing the packaging for whatever the product/s would be. In this case, it was for a wine brand. When beginning this project he knew that it was going to take a lot of time and effort to get it done and done well.
When working on this project alongside his classmates, it took him longer than everyone else because of how many details he put into the final product. Del Rio explained that he “wanted everything to be tied together”. This is another aspect that resulted in the project taking as long as it did.
After getting the project itself designed it was time to construct the actual packaging, which also took a while. The intensity of the work and the timeline all made for a very stressful situation.
OK, Elizabeth, but more specific detail would make it that much more “real.” Show him sweating the details, designing a logo, pasting the packaging together. Paper cuts on his fingers. Sixteen crossed-out logo attempts. Ink on his chin.
