Interactive e- cards forced me to handle basic Flash and actionscript while still keeping the design in focus. I experienced a steep learning curve and got hooked, continuing with Flash in the second semester. 2 WES: During my last year at Wolverhampton University, I won the competition to create a new logo and profile for a local supply company. Wire Electric Supplies wanted something traditional, yet new and fresher than their old profile. Working with a real client was a great learning experience for me. 3 Dream & Talk: For my final project I chose to do a book for both print and screen, in addition I did all the illustrations in Illustrator myself. This brief made me improve my skills in Illustrator, InDesign and web-design. I have learned a lot doing this brief and it has certainly given me more confidence in my skills as a designer. Reflections I came to Wolverhampton in 2005 and started my second year of graphics not really knowing what to expect. Travelling to a new country alone was both thrilling and scary, but I don’t regret it for a second. I’ve made friends and learned so much, both as a designer and as a person. It’s been a great couple of years. Aspirations My future holds a job and a challenge to use and further improve my creative skills. I will work, meet new people and expand my knowledge. I want to some day be an AD in a magazine since editorial design is something I am very passionate about.

I had to design a whole new nightclub/bar. I researched thoroughly and created different ideas to give me a stylish and sophisticated design. 2 As a keen fan of motor sports I produced two double page spreads, including text and images about Michael Schumacher. I based it on him as he was retiring, the sports most illustrious competitor. My final piece bought out the controversy and best of what he achieved. 3 Here is an example of my editorial work. I produced part of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival booklet. I tried to involve the essence of the Fringe as it a comedy festival in my final piece. It shows humour and friendliness so the reader can get the feel of the Fringe. Reflections It has been an enjoyable time at the University of Wolverhampton. I feel that I have developed my own style and myself. Interacting with fellow students has given me great friends and memories, and a better understanding of design. It has been a good experience. Aspirations It has always been my ambition to become an accomplished designer and to give a design a purpose and originality. I would like to work myself up into the industry to a high level, with a creative team, to produce distinctive final pieces.
