A RUSH OF FIAP TO THE HEAD

After the rush of adrenaline caused by the last minute, of hardcore improvisation (using gum instead of play dough), our photographer almost burning his hand off, not sure if Mela would show up on that Friday, 2 hours before we had to turn in the pieces; me overdosing on hysteria and desperation and a whole weekend in standby, a weekend that seemed an eternity, along came monday, and along came tuesday… the day of the results.

According to our Art Director, we could win. Did we believe it? I don’t know, but his belief in us was enough of a boost to get us going and participate.

Yesterday, the results of the MARATON FIAP PARA JOVENES CREATIVOS 2009 were published. We didn’t win but at least we tried. According to the jury, our work was very much appreciated but the problem was that our three pieces touched on only one subject: the burning of trees. The pieces that won touched on three different subjects: electricity, water, and paper. Consuelo de pobre: at least we got a good piece for our portfolios.
