- 365 CameraThe concept of this project was to make a profit whilst helping a cause. The 365 camera is a small digital camera with a roll of 365 photos. The idea is to take a picture a day for a whole year. You cannot see the images until the end of the film, with the idea of re-living the excitement of looking through images from the past. All of these feelings and emotions you no longer get because of camera phones nowadays. We have got so used to taking loads of pictures and not really thinking about the

We have got so used to taking loads of pictures and not really thinking about the image we take, or cherishing the image. We wanted to encourage and bring back the joy and feelings from film cameras before digital cameras were around but still with the quality of images we have today.

- What's the Flavour?An interactive project using an Augmented Reality headset and the use of colour and design to influence food being a certain flavour. There were a choice of three different coloured designs people looked at whilst eating the same flavoured biscuit for each. The concept was that different colours are meant to trigger certain receptors in the brain, resulting in people leaning towards a particular flavour based on colour. For example; red could trigger flavours such as strawberry, raspberry or cherry.
- Grand National Deaths, Falls & InjuriesBased around a social issue that I was interested in, I designed two double page spreads to inform people how the media make out the Grand National to be much more dangerous than it really is. The idea was formed around my love for horses and at around the time of this brief, had just been another Grand National bringing up various discussions about whether the media over exaggerates all deaths, falls and injuries caused by this event. So I chose to look into this topic to find out the truth. Using data visualisation I showed all of my findings clearly for people to make their own decision once and for all, without the conflict and confusion influenced by the media. The spreads are designed for editorial use.
Work history
Graphic Design Intern

Click to edit position descriptionOver the summer I interned at a great advertising agency called Brocklebank Penn. During my time here I was part of the design team, working on various client projects including coming up with design ideas and making them come to life, to then get them ready to pitch to their client(s). It was usually a quick turnaround whilst working here so I had to work to a fast pace still baring in mind attention to detail.

Originally my time as an intern at Truphone was meant to be for a month to gain some design knowledge in the workplace, experiencing the true feeling of working in the professional field of design. I work with the Marketing Team, as this is an area I am mostly interested in – mainly being the promotion of a particular brand.
During my time here I showed great design skills; the ability to throw myself into tasks given and work at a fast rate, resulting in extending my time here to once a week during my term time, to fit around my university studies. Shortly after starting they also offered me the chance to come back during my summer break full time and paid, which I took on.
I really enjoyed being a part of the Truphone team as I have had the chance to learn and experience new skills such as html and coding, as well as the opportunity to sit in and acquire an overall feeling of how marketing works generally.
Skills I have learnt from this experience:
• Email Newsletter design
• Html and coding
• Managing content
• Using Brand Guidelines
• Working with mainly InDesign, Dreamweaver, Photoshop
• Poster design
• Communication Skills
• Working to deadlines
• Working in a team
• Taking instruction from others
• Working briefly with Salesforce
• Time Keeping
• Accepting responsibilities
• Acting on my own decisions when working alone
• Problem Solving
• Self learning
• Designing advertorial Spanish media
• Creating brochures from scratch
• Attending regional operation meetings
• Guided new agency work for UK global markets
• Working on info graphics
• Updating multi-lingual brochures
• Designing Logos
