Industry Experience//Wonder Stuff Studio.




Again, I feel really lucky that I've been offered (even!) more industry experience after applying to around eight new Newcastle upon Tyne based studios in the past couple of weeks.

One of the studios, Wonder Stuff Studio, based just outside of the city centre in Gosforth, really appealed to me, as there was a real mix of projects, with a specialism in branding and identity, but with enough diversity within the portfolio (particularly within digital design) to ensure that I would learn a lot whilst I'm there.

Initially, I was contacted last week by the studio director, Paul, about starting the Monday of this week, for two weeks, but unfortunately I just wouldn't be able to make such a quick turn-around in terms of finding accommodation and, of course, being able to afford it at such short notice. 

However, very kindly, we've discussed other date options, and have talked about me going up in the October reading week (week starting 29th October), and potentially staying for a week after then also. At this point I'll have a loan and more time to prepare in balance with all of my other responsibilities this summer, so, really, it would be ideal.

Really looking forward to seeing where this contact and potential work will take me in the future, and looking forward to finalising a date and getting prepared for more industry experience yet to come!
