Nov. Meeting: Dan Covert and Andre Andreev of Dress Code, NYC
NOV 4 – At a combined age of only 53, Dan and Andre of dress code have already had the dream jobs of working in motion and print at MTV. They met while studying graphic design at California College of the Arts, moved to New York, got to MTV and left to start their own studio a few years later. Their work has been shown in 3 museums and graced magazines and annuals, including I.D., BDA, Communication Arts, PRINT, Graphis, Metropolis, the Type Directors Club, The Art Directors Club, CMYK, HOW, Adobe, STEP Field Guide to Emerging Design Talent, and Young Guns.
Dan and Andre also wrote a book called Never Sleep — a book about transitioning from school to work in the field of graphic design — which is in stores now. To add to an already impressive set of resumes, they also co-teach Design, Type and New Media classes at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn which led to their Fun Is Learning site — a resource for everything concerning graphic design students and young professionals.
See more of Dan and Andre's work at neversleepbook.com, funislearning.com and swishahouse.biz.

Working on getting some talented design students at The Art Institute of Dallas involved in DSVC. The Ad Club especially is hoping to get more involved.
