LIG Inc. will host a webinar featuring Mr. Toshihide Murata, a designer at the startup Resilire, who spearheaded their rebranding efforts. The webinar will be a dialogue-format event centered on the theme: "Understanding the Upstream Work of Designers from the Rebranding Process."
In an era where "upstream work" often lacks clear visibility:
"As a designer, I want to be involved more in upstream processes."
"I'm interested in branding and concept design, but I can't quite visualize how to actually proceed."
Many designers share these uncertainties. While the phrase "involving oneself in upstream processes" is often heard, the reality is that it's difficult to grasp precisely what to do and how to advance.
In this event, Mr. Murata, who joined startup Resilire as its first designer, will show how he built consensus and shaped the brand. We will deeply explore this specific process, including live demonstrations of Figma screens.
Recommended for:
- Those interested in branding and concept design.
- Those interested in upstream work but without a concrete understanding.
- Those contemplating their future career as a designer.
