Placement research

Over the last few weeks I have been researching job placements. It has been very hard to find 3 month placements, all of them seem to be a year long or I am not qualified for the opportunity. However, I kept on looking even with these minor set backs and I have now found some placements that I can apply for.

12 month placements

 DISNEY - Creative & Product Development

UNIVERSAL - Graphic Design Intern

Both of these 12 month placements are amazing opportunities but this is not what I am looking for. I want to either have a placement over the given time during semester 2 (March -May)or, have a summer placement. Due to this, I decided to research local design agencies in Coventry. Here are the three I liked the most.




These three design agencies would help me develop professionally but, I would have to contact them asking for a placement because, they are not looking for anyone at the present time. I will still contact them, it is just not guaranteed that they will give me the opportunity. After finding these three agencies I decided to have a look into London again. When I am not at University in Coventry, I am at home which is the outskirts of London. This means I can live at home and commute to London for a placement. 

After continues research and setbacks, I have found 2 possible work placements that I could do.

3 Month placements

IGNITE HOSPITALITY - Digital/Graphic Design Intern

Between these two placements, I would love to work for Ignite. This sounds exactly like the career path I want to take and would help me gain a better understanding of how this industry works. I will be contact Ignite via email and telephone.

D&AD Submission

I decided to submit my work to the D&AD competition. Here I have attached the video presentation and support .jpegs that I sent. I am very excited about this and I am hoping I win a pencil from this  completion, as this will give an advantage over others when applying for jobs. To submit work, I had to write small explanation. Here is what I put: ‘Virgin Venture’ is for the adventurous. The app and website allow people to book holidays based on categories and destinations. The second feature, which differentiates this app is ‘Venture Luck’. This feature is for the risk takers. The interface of this section is inspired by the popular Tinder app, allowing people to skip, save or book pre-planned holidays. The only detail needed from the person is a date.  There are also interactive posters that work identically, allowing someone to tap the screen. Each tap reveals a new destination, they can then use NFC to save the details. ...

Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers Muesum

Friday 30th September Today I went on a trip to Oxford to visit two museums. These museum's were Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers. Both of these museums had lots to offer but, I did prefer the Pitt Rivers museum beacuse it at things you could interactive with. Ashmolean is the University of Oxford's museum of art, founded in 1683. The collection is very large and has Egyption mummies to contemporary art. The museum displays all sorts of diversity throughout culture across time. During the time I was exploring the museum, I produced some observational drawings as well as taking photographs. My favourite part of the museum was the Egyptions beacuse, it was incredible to get close to these amazing historical pieces. Pitt Rivers displays archaeology and anthropology collections of the University of Oxford. The museum was founded in 1884 by 'Augustus Pitt Rivers'. He agreed to give his collection to the museum on the agreement that a lecture in anthropology was held on a regu...
