November 2013 Open Reference for Jack Darnell Jack graduated in 2013 from this University with a first class honours degree in Media Production. His course of study included a range of media experiences, from: TV studio Radio , Sound, Digital, Animation, photography and specialisation in Design and Digital Media. He has very advanced software skills and more importantly can apply these to solve problems in ways that work. Hard working and diligent, Jack was awarded the Optima Prize for the best graduating Media/ Design student and achieved first class level in nearly everything he did, including theoretical and dissertation modules. He also took the lead in creating the visual identity of the final degree show (for 200 student graduates) During the final year Jack worked very successfully with outside clients on live briefs and has since won commissions from these organisations. His range of digital media skills allied to a v good design sensibility makes him very employable, in fact each project undertaken by the course seemed to end up as a commission for Jack. It is clear from the above evidence, that Jack Darnell is a talented graduate who can solve complex problems with great skill and good design. I commend him to whoever considers employing him.
