We recently had a visit from two previous students that studied on LCAD's GD course like me.Tom Pratt and Oliver Shaw have combined their skills and come together to set up their own graphic design office they have mysteriously named 'Catalogue-'. They specialise in design for print, branding, books , exhibition web and t-shirt's. They also have a second independant company called Printshop, which sells screen printed T-shirts, posters, bags etc.
Being introduced to the two was both comical and influential, they certainly knew what they wanted and how to get it by simply putting themselves out there and independantly making buisness decisions. They described to us their journey through graphic design and how theyve ended up where they are today, including all the mistakes along the way.
I found thir advice very influential and it made me think about my future in a different way, pushing yourself and having no limits is what you need to do.
It was refreshing to hear about the success and position of a young graphic designer who has benefited from the exact same course I am on now.
