SPACEDchallenge landing page

Here we are, coming to the end of the #SPACEDchallenge.

There have been so many amazing submissions, I wish dribbble had an applause option instead of a simple like button. I would have red and swollen digital hands applauding so many of the amazing submissions.

Here is my final submission for the landing page, including a simple pitch. This was such a blast to work on, and thanks @Dann for hosting this challenge. The pitch pretty much sums up the process and ideation for what I eventually chose to submit. I literally had to reinstall Photoshop and wipe the dust off my Wacom.

That being said, I'd like to address something I've personally struggled with on this project. Normally, when doing actual work, I would be involved in heavy communication with the client. Before a single pixel was placed on an artboard I would have had multiple conversations, sketched a handful of silly ideas in my notebook and giggled a lot with my client (tension release and barrier breaking.) I didn't have any of that, and shame on me, Dann is just a DM away and at worst I could have reached out and never heard back. Instead I started out with this as a dribbble show and tell spec work piece.

I say this because, this is not how actual work is done, at least not for me, not normally. There are the one-offs where the expectation is to walk into a room, open keynote and drop the mic, but that almost always ends poorly.

Anyway … Diatribe done. Hope you like it and good luck to everyone.
