Shift

Design intern

A controversially unpaid internship programme, severely disorganised and unprofessional. This was not the greatest experience of my creative career to date, however working with fellow interns from a photography and industrial design background broadened my knowledge. The external mentors gave a great insight to their respective fields (print specialist, copywriting, account management to name a few).

Wonder Stuff Studio

Freelance Junior Designer

2 days spent working as a junior designer with Wonder Stuff Studio based in Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne. This was a valuable insight into the interesting projects being undertaken by this great little creative agency.
