Jim Sherraden from Hatch Show Print came to speak to our class. He, very casually, talked about all aspects of Hatch which make it unique. He showed us old slides of many of the posters they make, and they were all fascinating.
I loved the way he presented everything. He was so relaxed, and it felt as if he was really connecting with us. Generally speaking, whenever I have listened to any guest speaker, they are very detached from their crowd. They simply give a speech and that's that, but I think Jim made us all feel like he was speaking to all of us one-on-one.
Not only was Jim easy to listen to, but he really had some very interesting things to show us as well. It was lovely for him to pass around all of those original prints, and to show us some of the oldest prints he has and his favorites.
Overall, I found it to be a very enriching presentation, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who couldn't wait to run out the door and actually visit Hatch.
