What is Industrial experience?
1: Industry to me is something that i think has a real strong impulse on the way that we want to be educated and how we also want to create the work that we will when we work in "industry" (this links in to graphic design) it can range from knowledge about printers and special prints, all the way down the line to places such as illustration and DPS layouts
2: This could also be a development of your skills which we have created when it comes to the work load at university, but when you go into industry things will change very differently and this is a perfect way through going to work experience so that you can test the waters and see what you want to achieve overall.
3. It can also perfect your portfolio, each time i go to a industry to get a placement and experience they will add more work to my portfolio and i can also achieve a higher balance of work which shows of my talents and skills to then get me the next experience, this is something which is vital to development of myself.
4. To a certain degree it is also a confidence boost as someone has thought that your work is good enough to want to employ you and have you in there studio so that you can work with them, this can be the motivational boost that i need when it finally comes down to the final outlook and what i want to achieve.
5. Finally it is something which relates to what you want to do for the rest of your creative career, experience in these areas are something which is crucial to getting the final design done and this will then make the final outlook on things work perfectly
What can you learn from industrial experience?
1. You can always learn new skills and other things such as this from the overall outcome of industry based experience, these can help progress you along the lines of what you want to do and what you need to learn to then progress to the next step when you finally have the experience needed.
2. You can learn the pace of work which is required for you to work at so you can get the most from the placement these all range from what you look at and what you are hoping for. They will then give you the needed time schedules for when a crit would be for a piece of work for a client.
3. You can learn if thats really the type of work that you want to go on and do full time. This could be editorial or illustration but until you try it you will never know what the actual place is like when you come back to it and what you want to achieve from it all.
4. You will learn the correct language that is needed when you speak to clients, this is something which i aint learnt yet cause i still speak really casually and not always using the correct lingo when it comes to actually speaking in person.
5. You will also learn how to "network" this is so that you are able to really get a grip of things such as when you are needed to build a database of things that all the people that you may need to get in touch with again to get more work from or if you may need help from them such as printers or proof readers.

What form/format could industrial experience take?
1. Work placements are the first way that i could gather industry experience, These come free and people want to look around for the free talent that is on display, although i think this could then range to a very strong and experienced designers that work there and i would then be trained alot faster and it would give me the design practice which i need and want.
2. Free lance work, creating work and selling them to people, this would then gather there attention and make them want to give me more. If i was to do some of this freelance work i could also have some extra money coming in whilst i did this and it gets my name out there at the same time. This is a risk however cause i don't know if i would be able to do this correct the first time round but its something i will have to do eventually.
3. Placements, this is a perfect way for me to get the experience that i need to achieve and want from the rest of the ways that i decide to work, these will be something that i look into and that will help me progress along the design way of working which i really need too.
4. I could create work for websites and other places such as Behance and then post the work up there. this will get my name out there and also let people judge my work and see what they think. This could get me some feedback which will help with what i am needing to progress as a creative.
5. I could work with other experienced designers to then get a taste of things and see how it all would work out and what to do when i get into things, this way i would avoid masking the mistakes myself and then be able to link these together to make the absolute way of looking into things.
What areas of industry are you interested in?
1. Editorial, this is an area which has always caught my interest and wanted me too look into it alittle more, in first year i did a little project on it and it kind of put me off but i think if i was too stick at something then it could be alot more interesting towards me and i will then want to play this more and it would work better for me overall.
2. Ive seen how the printers works when they have massive print runs to do, it would be good to see which other areas are also good to work with and what i could achieve from them. Special print workshops would be a good area to go and work with cause i would like to see how they create things such as the foil print and block printing, these could be interesting to learn about.
3. Branding and Identity is another area which i could look into, this is something which i have found that i have looked at with each project that i keep going for. this could link me into a whole range of things, although each time i get excited about doing this. This could be something that i look into.
4. Typography in general is an area that will always interest me and something that makes the most sense from everything, i love how its so simple tow work with yet if done correctly you can make so much sense form it all and create something really spectacular. This links into so many different areas of graphic design, ranging from creating DPS designs and then across towards Promotion and Publishing.
5. Promotion is finally the something else that interests me but not as much as the rest of them cause i think they have a much more demanding and concrete brief which you need to stick too. This aint something that i want to do overall. Still something that ill look into but when it comes down to it i cant see this being the definitive outcome of it all.
What are your concerns about industrial experience?
1. Selling my creative soul, i don't like the thought of having to constantly work with designers who tell me how to design and how to create. This is something that im going to have to do if i want to make it in the creative world, but this is still something that i don't have a choice in doing anymore. If i want to do work for a creative company then this is something inbetween that i need to do.
2. Getting work abroad has always been a big worry of mine. I wouldn't know where to start and how i would approach them. I suppose you would start by email as this would be the most efficient way but still it would panic me when coming to do this.
3. The difference between a university brief and a professional brief, there could be a vast of subtle change. hopefully it wont be as bad as i think it is because i already have a high demanding course so that i think i could handle it.
4. How much work would i need to produce when it comes down to applying for an internship or something such as these, they could be a range of things that they look for, or very specific! It would depend on the company but still this is something which ill have to learn to work around and be open to consider.
5. What sort of work load i will be working with, as we work now we currently have bout seven briefs on the go at any one time but then maybe in a professional you concentrate on one per week or maybe you will then change across to something which is alittle more subtle yet demanding and this would be twelve in a week.
