Sarah Goldthorpe Introduction to level 6
I am a print based designer interested in a career in branding, advertising and packaging or childrens illustration. The briefs I will embark on this year are a clear reflection of my intentions within the industry, taking on projects in both sectors. Since the end of second year, I have also started to realise it is important that I use the power I obtain as a Graphic designer to help shape the world more positively through a percentage of my work. This new train of thought has also inspired my COP module this year.
