Hello again!
Well I’m back in London and have found myself working at the design studio in Brighton again, although under new management the company is now called Helen Joubert Design. I’m really excited to be working on a live project in which I’m designing a book cover for young people that are about to leave care (ie. foster/adoptive families) The client has been really pleased with my work and there is talk of taking me on freelance for the next two books in the series…Oooer.
I’ve also been back to Dare Digital to talk about possible placements in October and job opportunities at the end of final year. It was really helpful talking over my improved portfolio and all the work I did in New York. Since my meeting with them I’ve been offered a place working for Dorling Kindersley for three weeks towards the end of September which is good too – hopefully I’ll have a chance to meet other interns which I haven’t done so far.
Other than that, I’ve had another interview to do some work for the NHS. After going over my portfolio it was thought that maybe my style wasn’t quite what they were looking for, but great interview experience and it’s funny the way I keep finding myself back in the voluntary sector!
Other than that I’m just planning for carnival weekend, woop woop! Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying our last few weeks of ‘freedom’. Can’t wait to see you all in September.
