Noise Lab

Noise Lab had its opening this week, and although i didn't get chance to go because i was so busy with getting the photo-shoot ready I heard it was a great event!
At the moment they are stocking the corsages with the boxes as well as other fabulous work from designer makers across the U.K.
Well worth going and having a look if you find yourself in Manchester, in a central location on Market street.
Help support the U.K's young designer makers by buying something you love! The quality is often higher, you get to find out the background story behind your item and the person who made it and you know every penny you spend will be going to who it should be!

Photo-shoot day

Had a brilliant day today, after all the dramas about making sure that everything would be made in time, and getting the wrong file back from the laser cutter the shoot went surprisingly smoothly.
here are a sneaky glimpse at how the new website will look in Feb/March!
Really happy with the results and just waiting for the final photographs from the photographer/model Katie

A quick survey to try and find out what creative graduates need

How can new graduates enter into the creative world? what do you want to know?



Please can you take two mins to fill in this form? It is to try and understand what creative graduates need when they graduate university. For example many people have said they want better guidance on how to use their skills in the creative industries and how to make a living from what they have learnt.

It is to look at what workshops can be created to cater for the need of the extra knowledge. In taking two mins to fill in the survey we can work out what graduates actually want.

The questions are mainly multiple choice but allows you to add any extra comments
