- Feedback from those in industry
- Working with live clients (freelance)
I would say i am most interested in the idea side of the design process. I love thinking up quirky ideas and innovative work arounds. However if i have to choose digital or print i think i would go with print as i love designing and then seeing a final printed 'i can hold it' outcome.
- Logo design
- Packaging
- Infographic
Money is a big factor when i think about industrial experience. I would love to tai cup any offers i could get to work places however being unpaid and a student makes both saving money and using money quite difficult.
Stepping into the real world. Even though uni is a big step into the real world, if i mess up on some spelling i get a telling off and to reprint... i don't think i paying customer would be as forgiving.
