I was invited to this creative studio for a work experience 10 day trial period over October which was then extended by two months as I fully immersed myself in the role. This experience showed me what working in a multidisciplinary studio is truly like as I worked on concepts and worked closely with the Creative Director, Senior and Freelance designers to deliver ideas and executions for clients such as Sports Wales, Cwmbran Shopping Centre and Llandrindod Wells.

By the end of the first week they had decided to extend my stay by a further four weeks of which by the end I was reworking advertisements and even created a postcard to draw potential clients to using the company.
