About me

I am writing in response to your design studio job. As a graphic design student from Central St Martins I am currently experimenting on different aspects of graphic design. However I classify myself as a creative writer and designer, the job role I will love to have is music journalist/designer. I have a good understanding of magazines, media, music and art & design. I believe that I am a good candidate for working with your company in the near future.

From my enclosed CV I have gained a wide range of skills via work experience which relates to creativity:

Filming experience:

From this experience i had to work with a group of artists and musicians. My job role was film director; I used camera techniques to record footage of what was going on. I used iMovie on the iMacs to edit the footage into a film.

Interest in digital media:

My enjoyment and creative interest in digital media is more focused on designing an actual product which communicates a message through animation, print production and film. During my diploma I have loved researching, scripting and production work in digital media. I find it more interesting because I actually got glimpse of how to construct an original product, I even put together my own urban magazine called innit which is about young people getting to shout out how they express themselves. This magazine wasnt only done by me; I worked with someone who shared the same passion. It was written and produced well thought-out pitching, researching, recording interviews and designing. The software we used was Adobe InDesign. The Innit magazine was shown to the public at Stratford Circus where we got a good response.

Interest in Art and Design:

Apart from digital media, my mind develops fantastic illustrations from the use of pencil drawing, mixed media and loose ink drawing. My illustrations can be transformed as an image for posters and other print publications to communicate awareness for an event etc. As a designer I like to work hand craft, because I tend to have real fun ideas that can be taken into Adobe Photoshop for editing into a final outcome. I have done screen printing, etching, and monoprinting to create imagery and backgrounds.

Interest in Music:

I love listening to funky house, R&B, UK garage, dubstep, HIP-HOP, grime and indie music. The artists that currently inspire me are Princess Nyah, Donae'o, Shola Ama, Mz Bratz, Egypt, Tine Tempah, Alicia Keys and Professor Green.

Interest in Graphic Design:

So far in my degree I have put in my personality and art and design skills into my projects, which has made my work strong and individual from others.

ps. is this a part-time job. The reason why i am asking is because i am currently at university.

I hope my personality and talent are what you what.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Vanessa Felix
