Burbank Christmas

American vs French

When you deliver a graphic to an American:

a. There you go!
b. That looks perfect! Thanks!

When you deliver a graphic to an other American:

a. There you go!
b. That looks amazing! Thx!

When you deliver a graphic to an other American:

a. There you go!
b. That looks cool man!

When you deliver a graphic to an other American:

a. There you go!
b. Thanks! That'll work great!

When you deliver a graphic to a French:

a. There you go!
b. Erm. OK. But what if we had the logo a little high?
a. Ok.. Let me try it... There you are.
b. I mean a little lower I think.
a. Hmm Ok. I'll try it. There you go.
b. Is this the same size with the previous one?
a. Yes it is.
b. What if we make it 50% larger and have it even lower?
a. That might be a little too big though. Let me show you.
b. Hmm. Can you send me a little larger screen capture?
a. OK...
b. Thx. Can you bring it a little lower?
a. Sure. There you go.
b. Maybe just a little more?
a. Ok. Here it is. But this is a large poster. It will almost touch the ground if we go any further.
b. OK. Can we lower it a little further?
a. Anyway... OK.
b. A little more maybe?
a. OK.
b. Hmm... maybe the logo is too big now?
a. I'd already go with the original size.
b. Can you make it a little larger?
a. Ok?

a. So which one you pick?
b. I think the one on the right.
a. But I still think that the logo is too low on these.
b. The one in the middle where the logo is slightly lower looks ok to me.
a. Ok.
b. I'm confused. What do you think?
a. Well...I wouldn't use any of those new ones. The logo is too large on these and too close to the bottom.
b. Which was the latest file you send me?
a. xxx_9c6d1g.jpg
b. Is this the same dimension with the other product's poster?
a. Nope. This has the dimensions that you just gave me.
b. What was the dimensions for last year's posters?
a. Well...
b. Can you prepare one in the dimensions of last years posters? And one copy with the dimensions I just gave you? And one with the dimensions with I had given you?
a. Ok. Anyway you can just stretch these to fit...
b. Ok. Can we try the logo a little lower?

This is where I'm staying...

...tonight.











and I'll do my first laundry tomorrow. Very excited! :)p

And some Burbanking with my mobile phone camera, a place where I just moved in from Istanbul . So these are quite a bit of my first impressions of Burbank.

This place is pretty peaceful and quiet than where I'm coming from. And it shouldn't be a coincidense that Truman's surname was Burbank as well.

Hey there!

Well... I really got bored of struggling with html for my website and it's getting unnecessarily hard and quirky to manage it manualy for all the updates, small things, etc. So I'm kinda planning to use this space for the news: what's going on with iLoyd.
