Rationale My main aim in this module is to create a strong, professional but also varied portfolio. I want it to evidence my problem solving and conceptual skills as well showing my ability to work on live briefs with clients and to tight deadlines. Much of this will be shown by my editorial work that will be running consistently throughout this module but I want to make sure that this doesnʼt become my only focus. I also want to produce work to show my ability to produce work for various different industries including music, publishing, editorial, graphic design and advertising. Most of the work I will produce for this module will be with the aim of giving myself a running start into the industry at the end of the year; one of the ways I am going to do this is by taking part in several competitions. Some of them, especially D&AD, hold huge potential for giving graduates exposure and credibility if they win so these are going to be focus for me. Themes / Subjects • • • •
