Meetup Details

Hi IxDF Irvine (California), let’s meet online and practice to become EPIC UX Designers!

Meetups: Second Tuesday of each month
Time: 6:00pm - 7:00pm PST

The goal of this chapter is to not have another meetup where we sit around and listen to others speak. (Nothing wrong with that) :)

We are here to practice what we've learned from the IDF courses and put ourselves out there and sharpen our skills. DON'T worry, a lot of us are beginners or just got out of bootcamp. We are not all UX ninjas. (Yet)

We are going to shake things up a bit. This IDF chapter is all about practice, practice, practice! To become epic at anything one must practice day in and day out.

Yes, we will have speakers every once in awhile but we are going to be fully engaged and really get down to the core aspects of UX design.

Here's a list of the things we will be doing:
- Quick sketches (Lots of it)
- Mini/quick design challenges
+ Designercize
+ Sharpen.Design
- Brainstorming sessions
- UX Trivia
+ UX Companion App
- Share resources, job opportunities, tools and processes

Please do not be intimidated by this post or this chapter. We are here to push each other to become the best designer we know we can be.

If y'all have any questions please reach out to Atlás Blake.

Inspire. Lead. Create.

Meetups: Second Tuesday of each month
Time: 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM PST

Hey Team, check out these quick sketches from last weeks meetup.

These sketch challenges are about speed and creativity not polished sketches. We only have 15 minutes to complete a challenge.

Check them out and let me know your thoughts. Hope to see y’all tomorrow night for our weekly sketch challenges.

Meetup attendees

Members can show their interest to attend a meetup by clicking “Attend this meetup” button. In addition, since Local Groups events are open to all, non-members can also attend these meetups.

Members might be bringing their non-member friends to a Local Group meetup (and you’re welcome to do the same), but their non-member friends will not be shown as “attending” because this feature is only available to members.

P.S.: Note that the number of attendees is not an indication of its value! Small meetups work perfectly, and can facilitate deeper, more fruitful conversations.
