YCN - Art Fund_

This was a live brife set by YCN for their 2019 competition. The aim was to create a campaign aimed at 18-24 years olds to take a break and visit a museum or gallery.

The campaign I produced to answer the brife talks about how your mental health is just as important as your physical health. This campaign encourages you to take a step beyond your everyday life by taking a creative break. 

This can be achieved by visiting museums or galleries which has many mental health benefits. There are monthly events around the UK which encourage students to attend museums and galleries.
At these events there is free personalised merchandise which helps to inspire both ‘creative’ and ‘academic’ students.

The app combines the powerful use of art therapy and the importance of changing scenery. Art work can be shared on
social media platforms using the hashtag (#affree). Each day, the top 3 designs will be placed on an Instagram page for other people’s inspiration. 


‘Take a moment to enjoy the satisfaction of creating something of exceptional beauty. Set yourself free with Art Fund’.

Below are the final outcomes of my work:

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. ...

Campaign Presentation

The week of submission is such a blur. After rushing about trying to hit a deadline that was sooner than originally told, I was also struck with a sickness bug making it hard for me to function and concentrate. The work was supposed to be due on Wednesday 10th January however, the paperwork said it was due Monday 8th. Even though I was struggling to keep anything down, I still managed to go into university to presentation my presentation (Friday 12th January) of the work I have produced. After all of the struggle, I'm proud of myself. My presentation went well, I received verbal positive feedback from Paul which makes me feel like I will achieve a strong grade of 2-1 or a first. Hopefully, it will be a first as I am aiming to achieve all first for semester 1.

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  https://jobs.disneycareers.com/job/london/internships-creative-and-product-development-2018-19/391/5832619 UNIVERSAL - Graphic Design Intern http://jobs.jobvite.com/universalmusicgroup/job/ofZm6fwq 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 b...
