Design Indaba 2012 - REVIEW shoutOut 1 week, 4 days ago by DuncanBoxie in peeps |

Hi there guys and girls,
Design Indaba 2012 was in a word…EXPLOSIVE!
One of the highlights of Design Indaba 2012 was the sketch contest that we ran. Personally I thought that we would get about 30 designs max. The fact that people are usually in a ‘flat spin’ when they are at Indaba, because there is just so much to see and experience, means they don’t have a moment to stop. However, we were delighted that over 50 designers took the time to hang out with us and enter their sketches!
While the focus of Design Indaba is always to market your brand we were happy that we also made a huge amount of sales. It was so satisfying to see how excited people got when they saw our designs. Thank you to all our Cape Town based fans who took the time to come visit us at the stand and have a chat. It was great to catch up with all of you in person. We must definitely organise a Springleap.com meet in Cape Town very soon, how does that sound? Party party ;) This was our most successful Design Indaba yet! Everything just came together perfectly and the crowds were just so happy and optimistic about the growth of South African design. I suppose the fact that South Africa is riding the crest of a beautiful wave that is headed for World Design Capital 2014 had a large part to play in the tangible ‘design euphoria’. Good things are coming our way and we are definitely beginning to feel it! I would like to send out a personal thank you to the Springleap.com team who went out of their way to get things ‘ship shape’ for the event and also dedicated their weekends to making sure we had the best Indaba EVER! You guys are the best!!!! We can’t wait for Design Indaba 2013 – let’s make it even better than this year :)

STIMOROL - 3D REVERT shoutOut 1 week, 5 days ago by Duncan Boxshall-Smith in wordUp |

Hi there all you designers out there :D
Some of you may have already noticed that Springleap.com has launched its very first packaging design contest with mega-brand Stimorol.
The first thing you would have seen is that we require not only a thumbnail and large image of your design but also a die-line of the finished packaging. NB: The die-line must be uploaded into the ‘PACKAGING PREVIEW’! One of the most important aspect of this contest is the fact that you will need to create a 3D representation (3D revert) of your finished packaging design.
This is really easy!!!!!
Please bear in mind that in the graphic design industry the ability to ‘wrap’ designs around 3D objects, or to edit a flat design using ‘free transform’ tools is a fundamental skill. This is the perfect opportunity for designers to expand their ‘skill set’ and try something new and exciting. We cannot wait to see your packaging design ideas coming through! If you have any questions contact - Duncan [at] springleap [dot] com Happy designing! |

Comic-Con 2012 is right around the corner boys and girls! Thousands of ‘True Believers’ are set to descend on Comic-Con 2012 in San Diego, which will run from 12-15 July.
Comic-Con is the Mecca of the comic book world! Nowhere in the world is there such an amalgamation of geeky power! Whether you are a comic fan, sci-fi/fantasy lover, gamer, or anime baka, Comic-Con will thrill you beyond human comprehension and possibly even blow a happiness-induced blood vessel in your brain. Another key ‘pull’ for Comic-Con is the fact that it has some of the coolest Special Guests you could ever imagine. Fan-boys will have a chance to meet their favourite writers, artists, actors, authors and geekology celebs from a multitude of different sectors of subculture glory. Personally my number one choice of ‘awesome people to meet’ at Comic-Con 2012 is Katsuhiro Otomo, who is best known for his manga series Akira, which went on to become one of the most memorable Japanese anime of all time. Shoooo, autograph PLEASE!!!
As far as costs for tickets go, I’m actually surprised that they are so affordable! To find out more about this crazy cool event and stay up to date with all the announcements, please check out the official Comic-Con website. Prepare for pure pwnage! |

PUMA 'Built For One' - Cape Town - REVIEW shoutOut 2 weeks, 5 days ago by DuncanBoxie in peeps |

Every now and then an event comes along that I simply have to attend. I actually mentioned this event in a previous posting, however I had to do a follow up and let you know my thoughts. Well, I always knew Built For One was going to be a blast. When I heard the news that I could create my very own custom PUMA T7 track jacket I was a little bit more than just excited…I was practically frothing at the mouth to get across there and get ‘building’.
The process was simple. Once you worked out your jacket size you simply head over to the table for your corresponding size. IE: I’m a medium so I cruised to the ‘medium’ table.
After I had selected my colours and the garment panels were packed into my brown paper carrier bag, I was asked to go next door to the Built For One factory. Awaiting us were two long rows of ladies armed with sewing machines. They were all smiles and seemed very eager to create our custom jackets. There were some people that went really crazy and created multi-coloured customs of eye-popping brightness. Personally, I went a slightly more subdued route and created a mostly grey design with a black puma logo shoulder strip, green collar, wrist and waist ribbing. It came out pretty nicely if I do say so myself!
Once the T7 jackets were put together they were then quality checked, cleaned and steam ironed to aesthetic perfection. You also had the opportunity to customise your jacket even further with patches, buttons and iron on numbers. I elected to keep mine as is. Yes, I know I’m boring, but my jacket was just looking so slick - I didn’t want to regret stuffing it up! If they had iron on letters I definitely would have spelt out “BOX” (my surname is Boxshall) on the back panel.
I would really like to salute the organisers for a radical jol! I really can’t believe the PUMA Built For One event only happens once every 4 years. I wish I could get a styling new custom track jacket every single year! Honestly if I had to say one negative thing about the event it’s that they should have had a bigger selection of beer, hehehe. Well done PUMA, Built For One was an epic event! |

King of Comments, Queen of Quotes - WINNERS shoutOut on 5/4/11 by DuncanBoxie in wordUp | 2 weeks, 5 days ago by Valesidecc | 7

………………………..
……………………….. We are always amazed at how our community has grown in recent times and we love that our members get involved with leaving comments on a regular basis. There are however some members who take their passion for Springleap beyond making comments on our website and actually start spreading the word far and wide!
Our latest Queen of Quotes, Meagan (aka: Valkyrie32), is one of these amazing people who truly helps to grow our brand across various social media platforms.
When Meagan sees a design she loves she makes sure to let her Twitter followers know. We like to show our thanks to our supporters. So guess what Meagan, we are going to send you US$100 and also hook you up with 2 free Springleap t-shirts…to add to your collection! Please check out Meagan’s Twitter page. She will keep you up to date with everything from current affairs to the latest gadgets.
We hope you enjoy your prizes Meagan. ………………………..
……………………….. Long live the Queen :) Congratulations to our very first winner for 2012, Xiamist. Wow, this is our third Queen of Quotes in a row. The girls are really showing the guys how it’s done. Nice one ladies! This month we have a winner with a difference! Xiamist (aka: Galaxie Maria) is one of those designers that we really appreciate around these parts. She has created fantastic community interaction by coming up with a clever infographic on how you can vote for ‘her’ design. Her infographic is extremely helpful to our community, but at the same time it was also a rather clever way of racking up some votes for her ‘The Ultimate Nommage’ submission to our Marmite contest. Good thinking! You can take a look at her infographic by checking out our original blog posting. It will educate and make you laugh all at the same time. Marketing your own design is never as easy as it seems, but this was a truly fantastic way of getting herself some valuable design exposure. Once again, well done, we hope that the community sees this effort and emulates your creativity. Bravo! ……………………….. DECEMBER 2011 WINNER – CARIANNE ……………………….. We bow before thee!!!
The Springleap.com team sends out a hearty congratulations to our latest Queen of Quotes winner, Carianne Klein Katryn.
Our latest Queen of Quotes winner is just such a person. She has gotten seriously involved in the commenting process and always brings an uplifting word for our hardworking designers. After a hard year for most designers it was great to see her uplifting comments coming through in December’s contests. We appreciated it, so you can just imagine how thankful our designers were to receive such a ‘gushing of goodness’.
Sometimes she will leave short to-the-point messages showing her love for a design, other times she will leave comments that help designers to improve their work, without being too harsh. Not only has this uber friendly member commented like crazy on Springleap, but also very prolifically on our ever growing Facebook page.
We are very happy to crown this latest winner! ……………………….. NOVEMBER 2011 WINNER – IZZICANE ……………………….. Hail to the QUEEN….again!
We are very happy to announce our very first queen (or king for that matter) to win this coveted compo for the second time. It’s not just about the genuine comments that she makes on designs either. Elzaan takes it upon herself to speak about Springleap absolutely everywhere she goes. Yep, she is like a one-woman Springleap marketing team. You ROCK!!!
Check out her picture on the left, Elzaan even got involved in our Movember awareness campaign.
Congratulations Elzaan, we are very happy to once again give you a seat on this hallowed throne! If you would like to read more about Elzaan, please scroll down a bit further and read her original Queen of Quotes write-up. Just for the information of the other members: Springleapers can be Queen/King more than one, as long as there is a 3 month period between wins and that he/she cannot win more than twice in any given year. Elzaan is a Springleaper who is adding serious value to our platform. She doesn’t hover silently in the background and really gets conversations going between voters and designers. Well done once again, you well and truly deserve it!!! ……………………….. OCTOBER 2011 WINNER – WILBUR LIKE SMITH ……………………….. Monsoon, Assegai, River God?…..nope wrong kinda Wilbur! All hail our October King of Comments, Wilbur Like Smith! We are happy to announce a winner that really impressed us with his positive nature. Considering that he made lots of comments of our Positive Heroes competition entries we feel that he is definitely the right choice.
Wilbur Like Smith is one of those guys who gets involved and helps build the confidence of designers! Just have a lookie at his comments and you will begin to see what we look for in a King:
“This is also a great pattern concept. Wanted to say that the logo could have been one of the four blocks, but I like the off-balance composition, nice work” “I really like the image, but it's a bit comical for the topic :)”
You see what I mean? He is helpful and very good-natured in how he gets his opinion across. This is what our King had to say when he received the crown: This is so orsm!!1! That's why I love Springleap!! You guys rock, apart from not just having great designs, fantastic print work, Springleap has gone and created a sense of community as well. Winning this reminded me of something I read the other day, the words are by Feenix (designer of the Goodjoe logo) - "Everyday throughout the nation, ordinary people are doing small things, acts of kindness that make a huge difference in the lives of others and continue to inspire and provide hope to so many." To all the designers, keep up the good work and good luck. Springleap's all about the designs and real people. (I still have to submit my first design) Thanks again to Wilbur Like Smith. It was tremendous to see your comments coming through and we know we will see more and more of you in the future.
We appreciate all your hard work. ……………………….. SEPTEMBER 2011 WINNER – UNCLEHANI ……………………….. NICE ONE! Time to crown our King of Comments for September! Springleap sends out a big highfive to UncleHani for all of his contributions to the competition this month. It is great to see a Leaper who takes the time to get involved and give some feedback for our design submissions.
One of the best things about UncleHani is the fact that he is very to the point! In many cases this is the most effective way to help designers out. They don’t want to hear false congratulatory nonsense, they want somebody to call a spade-a-spade and help them grow. I liked these comments below most. The reason being he is so friendly and supportive of the designers work in both cases:
“Loveliest design, I like the idea of the baby, attached to the plus sign, big ups!”
He also made me laugh when he made a typo on one of his comments and then quickly ‘rectified’ his mistake: Yup don’t wanna be giving the designers the wrong idea there, hehehe. This is what UncleHani had to say about why he loves Springleap: I love Springleap because it allows you to express yourself in a artistic manner, it keeps you out of trouble like drugs, crime etc. and I am thankful
to God for the minds that started the Springleap campaign.
UncleHani has sent through so many great designs to our competition. It has been really amazing watching his style develop over the past few months. His latest submission Sesame Street meets Twilight was a really fun design, which had us all in stitches here at the HQ. Thanks again UncleHani…we know we will see you around! ……………………….. AUGUST 2011 WINNER – EFFIN’SWEET ……………………….. WINNER WINNER WINNER! SUPER CONGRATS go out to Effin’Sweet for winning our King of Comments competition for August . What we love about Effin’Sweet is that he is not at all condescending when he makes his comments about designs. He is helpful and gives suggestions for placement, but is never cocky or elitist when he does so.
It’s cool that he is always mega chilled and friendly!
Here are a few recent comments from Effin’Sweet which I felt illustrated his style of commenting: 1. “I quite like this one...out of the three I like the red version best, but I also like the red and blue version, I think that the randomness of colour becomes a bit busy, maybe try doing the Rev counter Red, speedo white and fuel gauge side blue.” 2. “Haha...cool glasses. If you break up some of the solid black it could look really good.” 3. “Nicely Done! I dunno why but I’m feeling like a slogan of sorts could have gone well at the bottom of the illustration.” You see what I mean? Zero aggression or negativity....just useful and happy comments. Effin’Sweet most recently collaborated with none other than local South African design guru, CHUCKY, to put together one of the most memorable and unique designs from the LEXUS ‘CT 200h’ competition. There were so many people at the Springleap HQ who felt that this one was a winner. To find out more about Effin'Sweet why not check him out on his Twitter page.
Thanks to Effin’Sweet for all the positive energy, we LOVE IT!!! ……………………….. JULY 2011 WINNER – MATSANNI ……………………….. Weeeee have a WINNER! Well done to Sannidya (AKA: Matsanni ) for scooping our King of Comments prize for July . We are always impressed with the awesome contributions this Springleaper adds to the website. Not only does he always have a positive word to say about a design, but he is also very helpful with insights that can help designers improve their work. We often talk about the “balance” of the ‘perfect critique’ and how if you are too negative you could scare off designers , or if you are too positive, the designer never learns from their mistakes.
Matsanni has his comments down to a fine art and always seems to leave the designers informed and confident about what they produce. Take these examples of his comments below for instance, if I was the designer I would be so amped about my design: 1. “BADASS character , I love the firm line, nice coloring and the distressed effect. I can’t imagine how cool I am when I wear this tee on the summer and I will wear the sunglasses, I don’t wanna have too much eyes LOL well done”
2. “Heya mr.Barmalisi See what I mean? He is open and friendly , makes you feel good about your design, but also shares insights in a controlled manner. Many of you will already know Matsanni from his amazing winning design No place for Hubris! Which blew away the competition in the April 1 OPEN THEME compo. So, not just a talented designer , but a helpful member of our community too! You are a legend Matsanni, thanks for your contributions . You are most certainly the deserving winner of our King of Comments for July HIGH FIVE ……………………….. JUNE 2011 WINNER – BLEET ……………………….. Once again it is time to crown our monthly King of Comments . Congratulations go out to Warren (AKA: Bleet) for his contributions and genuine feedback! The designers he has helped will no doubt grow from his advice and comments.
What we like most about Bleet’s comments is the fact that they are critical without coming across as harsh …which is paramount to helping improve designers, without crushing their spirits altogether!
Bleet uses a bit of humour to get his message across, for example he said, “Reminds me of snakes and ladders, would have been cool if u connected the 2. Snakes and ladders with the dude, ok that concept is free, next one you will have to pay ;) “, haha.
Bleet is already earning himself huge praise from the Springleap community and his skills seem to be growing at an exponential rate. When you consider how good he is it is abundantly clear that he will very soon have his first Springleap victory under his belt.
It’s one of those ‘It’s not if he will win, but WHEN’ kind of a situations. Thanks again for the great comments Bleet, enjoy your prize ;) ……………………….. MAY 2011 WINNER – IZZICANE ……………………….. May has been another amazing month here at Springleap, both of our Open Theme winners were absolutely brilliant and we announced the winner of the Stepdog competition.
We have had an equally impressive amount of informative feedback and comments from the community.
The great news is that we have our very first Queen of Comments. What I really like about our South African winner is that she may not be a designer, but she is passionate about good design. Izzicane says, “I’m not a designer or arty person but I love creativity and a good shirt :)!”
Not only did Izzicane get involved with most of the submissions up for vote, but she also tweeted on just about every design too. Izzicane had loads of insightful comments, but this is my favorite: “Great design Hanno, the layer affect really works well. I feel that the design or logo just needs a bit more colour though as it has a lot of white open space, which could be a bit distracting. Maybe if you put some more shading into the moon or dirty the white up a bit? Maybe consider enlarging the logo a bit as well to give it a bit more attention and like Maike said maybe place it closer to the moon. I love the hand drawn feel and I think you nailed the eerie and sombre feel you where going for, over a great piece of art.”
I like that she compliments the design, gives constructive criticism , but at the same time isn’t patronizing . Thanks again to Elzaan and well done! Find out more about the King of Comments, Queen of Quotes competitions. ……………………….. APRIL 2011 WINNER – SIMON ……………………….. Greetings one and all.
First off, thanks to the community for their awesome feedback with the April competitions.
It is usually a very difficult, or at least a close race, when it comes to making our choice. Huge congrats and thanks go out to Simon for his comments which undoubtedly helped raise our designers A-game . Here is one of his comments that I really enjoyed: Hey, you know what, I am a GUY and I love the pink, so bleh! This gives me the feeling of a vintage cake shop, I don’t know why, but I like cake so hey, what the hell! This is one of those shirts that I reckon would be quite “fashionable” when worn with some nice dark faded jeans. It has a ‘vintageness’ to it, and that seems fairly popular these days. I think the way you’ve used the typography as the “chair” is a clever touch. Because she is sitting down, one would naturally be drawn to the “chair”, in this case your words. Looking at your design preview on white, I think the design has been placed too large. Another thought, I could see this working without the background pink and it’s containing border, so if the girl just sat on the words to the left or right of the bottom area of the shirt I reckon that could work too? Agree?
For those of you who have been Springleapers for a long time , you will definitely recognise this talented designer’s work. Perhaps one of the greatest ‘designers designs’ ever to grace Springleap, came from this man. How long is a piece of String? , feature on the right hand side , is another simple yet effective design that helped raise Springleaps cred back in the day. Thanks again to Simon for being a true all-around Springleaper , who adds value to our platform and community. Enjoy your prize ;) ……………………….. MARCH 2011 WINNER – ACME ……………………….. Hi there friends . It’s time to announce our King of Comments winner for MARCH 2011! It has been really fantastic to see so many people getting involved and sending through positive feedback to our designers. We would like to send a big THANK YOU and CONGRATULATIONS to our winner acme ! This designer had plenty of helpful hints for our community of designers, whilst still being a nice guy ;) Take a look at two of his comments below. This is just the sort of thing we are looking for from the King of Comments, Queen of Quotes winner: “I think the concentric circles make it a bit stiff overall, specifically the outer ones . It could loosen a bit then it would be really great. The fist and electric shocks are the most powerful elements of this design so that should be the focus” “That unicorn is EPIC! Would have loved to see more of the unicorn and clouds without the geometric elements though”
Acme is already very well known on Springleap!
You will surely know his hilarious Mule Bear and beach-arific Big Wave Challenge submissions.
Most recently acme’s Happy Dolphin design made a huge impression on our March 1 OPEN THEME.
Thanks again acme, we hope you enjoy your prizes .
So, who will be our King of Comments, Queen of Quotes winner for April? SL team. ………………………..

Successful packaging design shoutOut 3 weeks ago by DuncanBoxie in peeps |
none yet |

Packaging design is an art in itself! What exactly goes into successful packaging design? Personally, successful packaging design is something that is aesthetically striking, illustrates exactly what the product is and also stays true to the original company identity. Just because a design is unique or different, doesn’t mean that it is functional or sustainable. When I say ‘sustainable’ I’m talking about the potential for a design to last without the brand having to re-develop its packaging design after a short period of time. The SkullCandy ‘Skullcrushers’ headphone packaging design is an example that I really enjoy. The design is clean and modern, giving it a more elite vibe. The subtly executed gradient colour also works nicely with the negative space of the skull logo. However, the most impressive aspect of this design is the ‘overall image’ that the designer has created. This design has been created so that when two of the same boxes lie next to each other they flow together and form the full Skullcandy design. This really enhances possibilities for in-store layouts. This is what I call forward thinking design! Some brands like to hit you hard with vibrant packaging which seems to be aimed at dazzling you into submission. For the most part I feel the tactic of colour bombardment is crude and often ineffective…unless you are trying to attract children. There are however a few cases where extreme colour can look absolutely amazing, case in point, the 1800 Tequila Essential Artists Series. Traditionally the 1800 Tequila bottles are ‘clear’, but this time around they collaborated with the hottest designers from all around the world by cleverly incorporating their visually captivating artworks. Not only does the marketing machine work more effectively by promoting these designers, but the consumer feels compelled to collect the super cool bottles. Colour can be a killer, but these bottles are executed to perfection!
Another example of successful packaging design is the Japanese brand 100% Chocolate café.
What do you think of my examples? We would love to hear what you think are the essential factors that go into successful packaging design. |

Japanese candy art - Miyuki Sugimori shoutOut 3 weeks, 4 days ago by DuncanBoxie in peeps |

Now I’m sure over the years we have touched on just about every kind of art form imaginable. However reading one of Miriam’s postings the other day on Eat more Love’ food design posting, I was compelled to dig deeper and see what other forms of food design I could discover. After a brief ‘net surf’ I realised that I had completely missed out on an incredibly interesting food design style – Japanese candy art.
Not only is candy art popular all around the world but it seems that in some places it is a highly developed art form. Take Miyuki Sugimori for instance.
Miyuki is one of only a handful of people that practice the Japanese candy art of Amezaiku.
The specific style she is seen using is but one technique in the massive school of Amezaiku.
What is truly amazing about Miyuki is not just the fact that she has the ability to create such intricate candy art designs, but also the fact that she does it at serious pace. I couldn’t believe how quick she was, wowzers! It would probably take me a day to create something like this and nowhere near as perfectly as she does. Japanese candy art is so totally sweeeeet…if you will please pardon the pun, haha. I’m so keen to try and do something like this at home. I guess I’m going to have to scour around and see if I can find a recipe for this sweet rice starch. Hopefully it’s not some super secret Amezaiku recipe handed down from generation-to-generation in family scrolls, hehe. If anybody knows this recipe, please send it across to me, I would be so stoked to get my hands on it. The Japanese are a people with a vibrant history of design. No matter what style they engage in it is always executed with a refreshing boundless creativity. Miyuki Sugimori’s candy art is no exception! |

Do we have any Cape Town based funky jacket fans out there? The PUMA crew will also be keeping us all entertained throughout the evening with performances from the likes of VGA, Tommy Gun and P.H. Fat. So you don’t have to worry about getting bored while you wait for your jacket to be put together. That is not going to happen! Word on the street is that we will get the chance to rub shoulders with some of South Africa’s best known celebs, such as PUMA’s local ‘creative ambassador’ Jack Parow. Can you even imagine what kind of jacket Parow would put together, now that is something I have to see, hehe! It is simply amazing how the now famous PUMA T7 Track jacket has become a symbol of modern funk. The T7 is embarked on a journey that began back in 1968 and is still being re-invented in fresh and exciting ways. Who says ‘new’ is better? The old school designs are often the ones that stand the test of time. I’m actually really compelled to see how they manage to put together 100 Puma jackets in a single evening. As I mentioned above they do these wicked cool events all across the globe, so chances are they have the manufacturing madness down to a fine art.
As mentioned above there are only 100 T7 Track jackets up for grabs. This is gonna be a night to remember kids, see you there!!!!
