Business cards

My business cards came!

I'm quite happy with them and glad I went for the spot uv rather than the cheap option of just CMYK colour. Also a lot of people seem to be getting foil business cards which look so good but I'm happy with the spot uv. I stuck to the grey and white because I tend to use these shades a lot within my work and I think it looks smart.

Job sites

With the help of twitter I've found a few good job sites which seem to advertise and list a number of good jobs all in the creative sectors. I am checking these sights regularly to see if theres anything suitable to apply for. Mainly I'm looking at internships and Junior Designer roles but don't know if I have enough experience to carry out that role.

Studio Spaces

I've been looking at studio spaces in Leeds becuase I'm definitely staying in Leeds for now at least.

I've been looking at Duke Studios, I visited here on my placement and its really taking off, it's got facilities like laaser cutting and photography studios and is very central.

 

 I was also looking at Umbrella Creative Spaces,they are a bit further out but the rent price for a small
space seems reasonable. The only thing which could be a negative with this is additional costs for trravel etc.

Design Strategies

I think my presentation went OK I do think I have improved at presenting over the year wasn't as nervous as I used to get but it's still daughnting standing up infront of a group of people talking about yourself.


I though I had a clear idea of what I wanted to do but I think I need to revisist my statement and narrow it down to one final one which sums it up.  I don't want to limit myself to print although I would like to be predominently print based but I want to have a strong grasp on web design.


I do want to focus on branding and identiy though and I think the work that I had looked at did represent this, although there coyuld have been a lot more.
