There's something to this ADC Young Guns thing. There must be. There has to be a good reason for why there are original YG1 winners here at this event - people who were selected as Young Guns 12 years ago. Let's call a couple over and see if they can figure out tonight's secret.
Meet Michael Whitney (YG1) and Christa Skinner (YG3)
Brandon: So, what were you guys doing when you were selected as Young Guns?
Michael: At the time I was self employed, working in design and fabrication. I'm really into furniture and industrial design. I actually recently designed the bars here at the ADC. So, I guess I'm still doing the same thing.
Christa: At the time I was a freelance art director. I think, specifically, I was working at Cyclopse productions. I remember I submitted some layouts and design I did for Blue Magazine - an adventure lifestyle magazine.
Brandon: So what do you guys know about tonights event?
Christa: Nothing, really. We know that we'll get a design assignment from the ADC and Moleskine, something to do with Lettera27.
Michael: Yeah. To be honest, it doesn't matter. The ADC is great, and the Young Guns are an amazing, talented group of people. It's great just to come and socialize and reconnect with people in the industry. To get a design challenge on top of it is just icing on the cake.
Brandon: What would your dream assignment be?
Christa: To be honest, any opportunity to be creative is a great opportunity.
Brandon: Well they're about to tell us what your challenge is so let's listen...
