Photo Documenting Assignment
This is a ceramic cup I threw on the wheel a year or so. The medium is grey clay and matte green glaze. To document it, I created a seamless studio for myself by a window, used a sheet of tin foil as a reflector, and used my own hand for scale.
An Interview With Boaz Chan of Coastal Reign
This past weekend, I had the pleasure of interviewing one of the Co-Founders of Coastal Reign, Boaz Chan. Coastal Reign is a Vancouver-based custom clothing company. They specialize in both screen printed and embroidered custom clothing. This company began as a dream shared between Co-founders Boaz and Eddison, and now it has grown into a team of driven individuals. You can find Boaz and Coastal Reign at https://coastalreign.com/
What is your least favourite thing about running your own business?
Uncertainty. You can get a lot of orders one day and get no orders the day after. Unlike working for someone, your salary is not guaranteed. This however, motivates me to work harder. When you own your business, you determine your own destiny. You get what you put into it, so I try my hardest everyday to eliminate this uncertainty.
What is something you learned that you wish you had known earlier?
Taxes and accounting. I dreaded Accounting class in 12th grade and I never paid attention. Now I realize how important accounting is when running a business. I highly recommend paying attention and taking advantage of the accounting classes in high school because it will save you lots of time and money in the future.
What was the inspiration behind the branding/identity of your company?
Coastal is because we live on the Pacific Coast. Reign is from a Ultimate Frisbee tournament we played in called Spring Reign. The name is quite random. We wanted to undergo a name change as the name wasn't very related to the business. However, we received several objections from clients saying they liked the name because it was unique and memorable. From then on, we kept the name and chose turquoise blue as our company colour.
Finally the 2nd lap is finishing ✌🏽 #sit2016 #singaporetri #runleg #triathlon (at East Coast Lagoon)
