“A partir daqui” is a captivating podcast curated by the talented Portuguese graphic designer Sofia Rocha e Silva. This intriguing series explores the transitions and journeys that occur after completing a design course.
The central questions posed in the podcast—”What happens after a design course? How does this choice and the context in which we graduate affect the path we follow?”—serve as a springboard for deep discussions. Sofia dives into a detailed 10-year reunion with some of her classmates, probing into their diverse trajectories and how they navigated their careers in design. The podcast illuminates the experiences of 20 former future designers who share their unique stories stemming from a common background, each episode offering a fresh perspective on their individual paths.
Listeners can anticipate new insights every Wednesday, starting April 24th, 2024, which promises to offer a blend of nostalgia and inspiration. This format not only highlights personal growth but also reflects on the various ways design education influences professional and creative endeavors.
In addition to being an engaging host, I had the privilege of contributing to this project through editing and mastering. I also designed the distinctive sound logo and separator effects that enhance the listening experience in every episode, adding a layer of auditory branding that resonates with the show’s identity.
