Alyssa Nguyen - Camp Evergreen - Brand and Web

The Designers’ Summer Camp is a fun-filled and hands-on design course created to give you the confidence and skills to start branding like a pro.
Created by a self-taught brand designer to include everything I wish I knew in an interactive, playful format (because design is supposed to be fun!)

If you are…

A Complete Newbie or Design Novice

You’re new to branding design and/or professional design software and you want a course that will take you through the basics without rushing or condescension…

An Aspiring Professional Designer

You’re yearning to become a professional designer and maybe even work for yourself as a freelancer or studio owner but need some help bridging the gaps and making the leap!

A Designer in Need of Guidance

Maybe you’re working right now as a freelancer, but you’re not feeling ready to go full-time or there’s something holding you back; maybe you’re in need of some guidance to give you the confidence to move forward…

A Creative Looking for the Next Step

You’re not new to the design scene and you’ve got experience, but a skill improvement and level-up is what you need to start growing and expanding your offers…
Still not sure if it’s right for you?

After Camp, you’ll be able to…

🤝 Work with clients on real branding & web projects with your pricing, operational systems and client process already in place.
🗂 Interpret project briefs to create perfectly tailored designs for your clients and navigate the revision & feedback process.
🔥 Design confidently using industry tools like Adobe Creative Suite and Figma to create any type of design or collateral!
🖍️ Create advanced, comprehensive brand identities with a full understanding of logos, type, and color palettes.
😎 Design anything that a brand might need, including brand guidelines, social media templates, stickers, print designs, and more.
💼 Launch your own freelance or design studio with the portfolio projects and business knowledge you’ll learn from Camp!

Instead of sharing miscellaneous workshops I’ve done on design business subjects, I’ve created a whole module dedicated to what the heck to do after you finish Camp! I’m including everything I wish I knew about the design biz when I was starting out, and I’m answering my most asked questions from creatives in every topic.

IRL Briefs

Week 1: Choosing a potential niche or ideal client
Week 2: Try another potential niche
Week 3: Narrow down design style & niche
Week 4: Design website for 1 brand from weeks 1-3
Week 5: Design website for 1 brand from weeks 1-3

These briefs are meant to act as both Portfolio-builders and also hands-on practice to help you figure out what your niche is, your design style is, and what you might want/not want to include in your services. I’ll be providing individualized feedback on the designs to help you reach your ideal style, skill level, or audience.

Bonus Workshops

To make sure you’re getting top-notch experts, I’ve invited some fellow creatives and friends that I love and trust to come speak on their specialties!

Meet Your Counselor

(Hi! I’m Alyssa Nguyen 👋)

FOUNDER OF ATNN DESIGN STUDIO
I’m a self-taught designer turned freelancer turned studio owner and I’m here to help you reach your design dreams without the pressure & fluff. I know what it’s like to try and piece together everything and it’s so hard to know what you don’t know! That’s why I created Camp: to remove the high barrier to entry to the branding world and create a supportive, gatekeeping-free zone for all. Here’s some little bits about me:
  • •I’ve been running ATNN Design for 4 years, and have been a brand designer for almost 6!
  • •I’m passionate about uplifting people from underprivileged backgrounds and making BIPOC, queer, and marginalized communities feel seen.
  • •I’m very anti-normative (aka I don’t want to tell you what to do); my teaching style is more like a counselor than a teacher or coach. I’m here to hear your goals and struggles, and help you soar past them!
  • •I love play, so the vibe of this course is work hard, play hard! I like to throw in little jokes and keep it light, while still giving you all the goods—fluff free.
  • •I’m a 2nd gen Viet girl living it up in Brooklyn, NY! I’m a matcha > coffee girl with a big love for books and I’m so excited to become your camp friend!

I’m not a regular counselor—I’m a cool counselor! 😎
