Hey True Believers!

I’ve decided to create a screencast that documents my design process for my final project. My hope is that it will shine light on the design process and how much time, effort and thinking it takes to execute a similar project. If you think it worthy, please provide feedback as it will only add to the final piece. Here’s the link: http://www.joshuamichie.com/archives/148
