Where are they now?
At TRC I studied Media Studies, English Language and Art.
But by far my favourite was art, I achieved an A* in Art a B in Media studies
and a C in English Language. I really wanted to move onto graphics because of
my love of art so I started to look for a graphic design apprenticeships, it
was actually Sarah who found an opportunity with Voca Voca, a provider of
Graphic Design apprenticeships! So I went ahead and applied after making a
portfolio of all of my artwork from art and also the magazine I had created in
Media Studies using InDesign and Photoshop.
I went for an
interview and out of all the applicants I was chosen for the job! I work at the
Foundry Studio in Sheffield for SoundBytes Media and I started on the 1st
July. The main things that I do every day is create graphics for social media,
but I have lately been working on projects with the record labels artists and
one of the designs I created for an artist’s album will be going live on iTunes
next February! I have designed two album artworks so far and there is upcoming
work that includes creating new websites for artists. I control what goes up on
Instagram and for December I have created loads of typography pieces on
Illustrator of song lyrics to go up closer to Christmas for the Christmas
campaign this year.
The most exciting
thing I have done so far is gone on a smoke bomb photoshoot in the woods for
one of the artists we have been working with. The best thing about my job is
seeing my work being used on websites, online and by artists, makes me feel
proud my work being seen! Getting an apprenticeship was really right for me and
has raised my confidence massively from working with clients and large amounts
of people. I love my job and I’m so glad I chose this path instead of going to
university.
