Studio visit- DS Emotion.

Today I had the opportunity to go down and visit DS Emotion for a studio visit and portfolio surgery with Matt Button. Whilst I was there one of the creative directors also sat down and talked about my portfolio and gave me some feedback on this too.

Feedback received:

• Clear presented portfolio- good at talking through it
• Send work off to charity because the brand is strong and would be a good gesture to them
• Logo first then expansion of the type next- would be a nice link and start as this shows my personality and craft approach from the start
• Shows thinking behind identity 
• Tone of voice of each brand bring this out and make a statement of it as there are some good concepts being missed
• Expand some of the projects further especially notepads as this is a strong concept with a different theme which most students wouldn't consider. They would do the obvious and that isn't
• Account-ants words need to be bigger than the visual to add more impact as this is more important as part of the brand
• Re order the portfolio 

Towards the end of the visit they said to keep in touch and in a few months a possible internship maybe available when there is space, so this is encouraging and makes me keep trying to find something.
