The reflection of my professional experiences at three different placements

Reflection
As part of each of my 20 days of professional experience I made a daily blog post reflecting on how the day had gone.
Within this I reflected how things had been going within the team I was working with at the time, the work I was producing with this being shown within the videos and presentation and finally how I had developed my own skills.
The professional experience has proven to be extremely useful as I know have a much clearer idea of where I need to head first in order to achieve my career goals.

HIRED // GUNS ADVERTISING
are back!
What a week!
25th April - 1st May
After setting up the foundations for our freelance advertising agency at Cadbury, my partner and I have taken Hired // Guns from strength to strength over the last week.
As this is only a trial business and to get us used to the industry we hope to enter after Uni, we took on several different briefs at once and kept our week pretty packed.
Working on these briefs got us bouncing ideas off one and other once again and the intensity we had at Cadbury came flooding back.
Although this week has been recorded for the purpose of this module, this is a project we are very much still involved with outside of University and one that looks set to be a success for both me and my partner.
