Come curious. Leave ready to make moves.

*Wednesday, September 16, at 5:30pm at MSU-Glass Hall 108.

A panel of creative professionals are going to provide tips and guidance on getting into the job field, interviewing, and doing work that gets work. We'll have experts in video, design, account/project management, and more.

Seriously did not expect the wild range of ideas, depth of thought, and fun presentations from the Concept Clash at Springfield Soundstage. Each person (and one team) took the same prompt and brought it to life in their own way.

They were asked create a concept that introduced the world to Ghosted, an on-demand escape service for life's awkward moments. Whether you're trapped on a bad first date, stuck talking to your overly chatty neighbor, cornered at a networking event, or regretting staying at a party too long, Ghosted provides the perfect exit. When it's time to leave... just open the Ghosted app and they’ll take care of the rest.

What it didn’t say was anything about brain implants, plays on the word “gho”, thorough audience identification, or Devon Sawa, but they all came up and all made perfect sense when they did.

Thank you Katie Day, Sarah Jenkins, Shawn Finger, Kyle Drenon, Cate Fitzpatrick, and Kallen Brown!

Did you just hear the sounds of a big beautiful idea being born only to be tested, twisted, and treated to a showcase, surrounded by creatives who just want to see it blossom into it’s fully-formed-even-if-it’s-half-baked self? Yes, that’s definitely what you're hearing.

Come to the Concept Clash to see short presentations from top-tier local creatives about their big ideas (around the same prompt), then see them adapt and add on to it to overcome a couple of creative challenges.

The skillsets vary, which means the perspectives are wonderfully unique, which means no one knows what the hell is about to come out of their cranial contortions.

Do. Not. Miss. It.
