I was hoping they would be designed collaborations similar if not the same as fabrica but none of these have adverts for interns / paid work.

Most of them make really nice design!

Finding Design jobs abroad

Still wanting to apply to Fabrica... I emailed the creative director at Colors twice, still no reply... so I emailed Tim again. I wanted to know as much about how the application process worked for him so I could get a better understanding. It was nice for him to reply so quick.

Such a good guy.

I spoke to John and he said he will email some similar schemes in different countries... fingers crossed one of them will want me. I really really dont want to be in England next year. Waiting on John's email atm.

Going to Document.is

They have recently joined as Smith&Milton, they were previously known as Document.is.
I met three employees today and I love their work, location and most importantly they are so friendly. Hopefully a placement is lined up for summer / after and right now I feel that Bristol is the place for me.

1. Physical Work

By next Tuesday (12th of March) you need to provide us with physical / printed work, labelled with your name and title of the project. (in a folder)
For 3D / packaging work please use a shoe box or appropriate method of separating and labelling your work.
It can include more than one project if you think they will photograph well with one another. e.g. 3 publications...

We will have a sheet so we know exactly who has given us what and we can tick you off when we have it.
(saves hassle for both parties)

2. Revised Statement
25-50 words about yourself...
whether this is about you personally or your approach to design is up to you.
We want something that tells your future employers about you!
Please check for grammar and spelling as we will not be rewriting for you.
