Initially started as creative think-tanks for clients, partners and staff, Frost* first opened up it’s long running deFrost* talk series to the wider business and creative communities back in 2012.
October 21st, 2015
Curated by founder and Executive Creative Director, Vince Frost, the deFrost* lectures feature speakers drawn from his broad network of leading local and international thinkers and achievers. The evenings of debate and discussion offer the opportunity to hear inspiring insights and participate in the development of ideas at the bleeding edge of commercial creativity and business.
The free events, which can now accommodate 150 people, are a personal passion for Frost, who has longer-term plans to make the talks accessible to a larger audience and found an academy under the deFrost* banner.
This month, the series looks hand lettering in the digital age, and examines the advantages and opportunities available to designers, brands and consumers in crafting authenticity in the digital age. Gemma O’Brien, an award winning illustrator and typographer at deFrost*, will discusses the return of hand drawn lettering and why advertising is celebrating authenticity in the digital era, at the sold-out event October 29. Be quick to register for deFrost* 36.
