Opportunity for Summer Scholarship 2011 at Saatchi & Saatchi

http://www.saatchi.co.uk/working_here/graduate_recruitment

''Fancy a job at the world's most famous advertising agency?

Each summer we offer up to ten grads a place on our famous Summer Scholarship Programme, at the end of which a lucky handful will get hired.

Just like working at Saatchi & Saatchi, our Summer Scholarship is a unique experience because we conduct all but the final stages of the recruitment via Facebook.

Last year over 6,000 hopefuls took part in a series of fun, creative challenges designed to test the skills needed to work at Saatchi & Saatchi.  Ten of the best joined us for six weeks last summer; six got hired.

They had to do stuff like create a new Facebook group and get as many people as possible to join.

Applications for 2011's Summer Scholarship are now closed, but keep an eye out for the results of this year's exciting challenges.

2012 Summer Scholarship applications will open January 2012.

I really love this design studio I found from London. They design for sectors that interest me, including retail, hospitality and luxury. They have some great work, and are the ideal type of studio I would like to work for, as they are right up my street. I just wish they were up North!

PPD Progress Review with Jane

Here is the formative feedback I received from Jane:

Self promotion - Business Card

Using my logo idea I created a business card/mini portfolio to hand out to students at the common room event, for possible collaboration opportunities for FMP:

Within this I included a few images of previous work I have done, so the students can get an idea of what I am about, along with my statement/rationale.

The form of the business card is a long strip with  the logo on the froth and my contact details on the back, this of which unfolds as a concertina to reveal the images of my work, with my statement on the reverse:


 2 variations of the imagery composition:
