I didn&#8217;t win, but a few weeks later I received an email that they still really liked my design and might want to use it in the future. I was obviously thrilled and sent them hi-res files, and asked them to let me know when\/if they used it.<\/p>\n<p>Fast Forward to last week. To my great surprise I noticed some pictures in my newsfeed from TSWGO, but these weren&#8217;t just any pictures, they had my poster in them!<\/p>\n<p>First I was really surprised, because in the bustle and hustle of getting ready for Vidcon they forgot to notify me (not a big issue, and all sorted out now), but mostly I was really excited. Even though I didn&#8217;t get to go to Vidcon, here were pictures of my poster next to some of my favourite people, like Wheezy Waiter and John Green!!<\/p>\n<p>But it gets even better! My friend <a href=\"http:\/\/imperfectreflection.tumblr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">James<\/a> did make it to Vidcon, and due to his phone not receiving MMS&#8217;s I did not manage to properly communicate my discovery to him. The next day he told me to check his profile picture and what do I see but MY POSTER DESIGN next to him, Ze Frank, and Lauren Fairweather! Apparently my poster was at several of the signing tables as well as the TSWGO booth.<\/p>\n<p>If anyone else has pictures of awesome YouTube peeps with my design in them I&#8217;d love to see them!<\/p>\n<p>I also saw this\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1PiRDigRhx0\" target=\"_blank\">awesome video of Esther Day\/Vidcon<\/a> where my design makes a few appearances.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a great note to start my Graphic Design degree off in September \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Note: All the Photos are from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TSWGO\" target=\"_blank\">TSWGO Facebook page<\/a>, besides the one of Ze Frank (and James and Lauren, I bet you can figure out whose who) and the full poster design.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Story of How I Lived Vicariously Through My Poster at Vidcon 2013 Earlier this year I was planning on attending Vidcon this year, at least in the hopey, calculating how much money that would cost sort of way.
