Design-A-Thon: Coffee, Please

We're an hour away from the creative freeze. At 10 a.m., teams will wrap up what they're working on so we have an hour to collect everything and present the finished product to Safe Haven  Family Shelter at 11 a.m.

Almost everyone got a few hours of sleep to recharge for crunch time. The coffee that Dunn Bros. donated doesn't hurt.

The copy team is editing the website, writing tag lines for the ads and finalizing collateral. Marketing and web are discussing the eNewsletter campaign, and the design team is inputting copy and tweaking brochures.

The group watched a rough cut of one of the testimonial videos around 8 a.m. I don't know whether it was because of his story or lack of sleep (probably both), but more than a few tears were shed.

Jessica Murray, one of the organizers, is doing what's kept her busy for the past 22 hours--keeping the whole operation moving smoothly (and keeping us fed).

The big reveal will happen two hours from now, and we'll be sure to let you know how it goes.
