    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • I loved my time at Tom cody, so sad I only had 3 months there! Such a fun, inspiring studio to work in. I've been able to try a huge range of new things, from digital work to hands on screen printing! The things I have learnt over the past 3 months are invaluable for me as I go on with my studies at university. Not only did I learn a huge amount, its been a real pleasure to work with all of the girls in the studio, they made me feel welcome from day one, and gave up a great deal of there time to help gain as much as I could from this placement. They can also plan an amazing leaving do!!
