Inspiring <3 

Making a video like this for a client. So far, I am enjoying it. It looks simple, but don’t be deceived. He made it for 3 days. I had to make a storyboard for this one. Took me a day to finish half of the storyboard’s elements.

Planner Hunt

I was supposed to buy one of these really artsy planners for 2012:

The Filed Planner known as the doodle planner, but they never did replenish stocks at Fully Booked and Powerbooks branches. Currently, I think they sell it online - www.filed.com.ph for P545.00

What I like about Filed is that they have extra pages for your lifestyle, uhh.. lists? needs? must-sees? 

The other planner that I really like is the Slate Planner

More fit for a designer because of its colorful page layouts and simple maroon cover. - P549.00 at any Fully Booked or Powerbooks branches. 

But then I realized that I might need the money for something else (like books or food) so I settled for the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Giving Journal since we are always at Coffee Bean. (Yes, I prefer CBTL because I am a swirl card holder, so more reward points for me). Besides, I still have my moleskin sketchbook. 

What I like about this planner—at the bottom of every spread, there is a space for your week’s bright ideas, insights, inspirations, prayers, etc. 

The design was made by different local artists and designers for a cause. The planner also provides different coupons for each month. 

As for 2013—assuming that we survived (hoping that the Mayans are wrong), I might make my own planner—said this last year though. I guarantee you that I will find time to make customized planners. My only problem is, I do not know anyone who prints one. I did make a couple of inquiries—it is very costly.
