Placement at BrandFuel

I decided to keep a record of my time at BrandFuel whilst on placement. My time there was educational, fun and mainly an experience. The main reason I chose to do the placement was because i wanted to be living and working back in London for a few weeks and to gain professional experience to enhance my practice before starting back in third year. 

My two week placement at BrandFuel was in retrospect practical knowledge of a graphics, events and production.

- Worked at The Heroines Of Computing event held by Google at Bletchley Park, an event with payed tribute to the women code breakers of WW2, my role was to decorate the venue, put up signage along with packing up after the guests had left. Overall it was a great day and I'm glad I played part in the event.

Over all the BGC charity day was the best part of my placement, the day was a great experience and all for a good cause. I met some amazing people and would love to work at an event like this again.
