Stone Soup - Day 1

Today was my first day at Stone Soup for my Intern ship, i am the first of 4 to go down from the college and so i had no idea what to expect and was really nervous about what i would be doing and if i could actually deliver.
BUT
It all turned out brilliantly, we first ran through my portfolio and then Ben gave me a project that they have been developing for the past 6 months and have another 1.5 years of the contract left, so its a pretty hefty project.

It's for the arts council in conjunction with the 2012 Olympics getting people aware of events and get them moving. It's called imove and, and basically its a campaign to get people moving and to blur the lines between art and sport.

Ben gave me the outlines and limitations of the brief and I set to work with it just coming up with concepts and ideas to develop further. It was a different way of working as all the contend was provided and it was putting it together into a resolution that had the most impact or that could be most useful. Also I had a budget of £500 for a quantity of 5,000 so i had to be careful with any design finishes or techniques that would push this budget up.

By the end of the day i ran through with Ben what i had been doing and he seem to like what he saw. Out of the 4 concepts i had been working on, im going to be developing on Friday and even though there were a few mistakes when using the logos and sponsors, the concepts were strong.

Cant wait for Friday :D
