Into the final Year!

 I have finished a whole set of illustrations for a friend of mine who has written a child's poetry book called "Phattis Cattis", about a fat cat, his friends and their adventures.
Below are of some of the drawings. I'm not going to put them all up, as there's rather a lot of them. But once my website is complete ,a full example of the book will be available.

I have also done some work experience with IBC. Myself and a 15 other Ravensbourne students followed up an opportunity to work at the IBC (International Broadcast Conference) in Amsterdam this September. We had a string of interviews where we explained why we wanted the opportunity.
We were flown out to the conference and worked on the front of house as hosts and hostesses representing the company. We represented IBC, as we were responsible for delegates and exhibitioners, helping to guide them around, and make the most of their experience.













I am now writing my Dissertation. The Title is "How does product branding affect consumer purchasing decisions?".
I wanted to orientate it on branding, as this path it'd like to pursue when I graduate.

PROMAX

At the beginning of the summer I entered the  PROMAX competition, the brief was to create an advertising campaign that heightens awareness of the Alzheimer's Society. The restrictions I had to abide by were that it had to be within the current company branding guidelines and I had to create a marque and slogan to engage the general public.

Although I didn't win the competition, I got a personal e-mail from one of the judges saying I was in the final top three. This was one of those e-mails I was grateful to receive, but it must have taken me a few days to digest the frustration that came along with it!

Here are just a few slides from my final presentation.
The first 3 .jpg's are poster campaigs, then the next 3 are web banners, and the final 3 are storyboards for television adverts.
