Showcase:John Burgess

This is the website of a 21 year old design student at De Montford University - really lovely work, well presented and finished, lots of attention to detail and plenty of imagination - well controlled and beautifully rendered. He's been able to demonstrate a range of valuable skills and shown thoughtful consideration as well as playfulness and imagination. There are plenty of self initiated and freelance projects, as well as tasks that are very similar to the briefs that you are given.

This is the level that you are all expected to achieve - and remember - there are literally thousands of design students leaving college every year and entering a very competitive industry - there is no room passengers.

  1. Love it! The Ordnance Survey work is lovely, as are the logos and the fruit drink video (not sure about the song, but that's the easiest thing to change).
    P.S. The Verification word for this comment is prophets. What an excellent Easter joke: it unifies the religious origin of the festival with the profits made by Cabdury's, Nestlé and the like.

  2. I liked this guy's work because it's clear he is on a similar program to all of you - and everyone has the chance to achieve work of this standard. Actually, I have the sound down so I missed the song.
