Congratulations

Graphics show just after doors open

Congratulations to all Graphic Design students at UCS for a highly successful degree show. Friends, family and invited industry guests thronged through the Forefront Gallery from the minute the doors opened through to closing the bar at 9pm.

Graphics show just after doors open

All the work proved popular with invited guests as business cards quickly found pockets and students were offered interviews. The portfolio table proved extremely popular and a showreel complimented the final project work displayed on the walls.

A few weeks ago I invited final year UCS graphic design students to give advice to first year graphic design students via the medium of posters. There's not enough room to show them all here, but for those with blogs that have posted about the project, check the links below:
