Pittsburgh Photos & Videos | The Soul Pitt

Running The Soul Pitt and Soul Pitt Media is a busy job.  Sometimes I can’t make it to everything or I just plain need a break!  However, when Northview Heights Elementary School called me to come in for Career Day early in the morning on Friday,  I couldn t turn them down.  They wanted their kids to meet an African-American Web Designer.  Bonita Penn from TSP was also there as they needed an African-American Writer/Poet, and many more folks from a Boy Scout leader to a Paramedic. I had a ball with all the kids from K through 3rd grade.   I told each class about how signs they see all over are made by graphic designers and showed them many signs and logos that they all guessed right away from McDonald s to the Big K-Mart Logo.  Then I showed them the sign I created with the Supergirl Web Designer mascot.  Each class then made up a name for their design company and decorated their signs with foam stickers.  The names the children came up with were Spiderman Designs, B&G Designs (Boys and Girls), and Kids at Work Designs.  Each sign is displayed in the classroom.  Thanks to the staff, teachers and kids for having us at your school.  Check out the Pics!
