Illustration Internship

This course supports students to experience a short ‘internship’ as an opportunity for professional learning relevant to the student’s illustration career interest. Students will undertake an illustration project according to a creative brief supplied by an external client, whether business (advertising agencies, design studios, animation studios, magazine and newspaper, publishing houses, UC services), community group, or other organisation or individual. Students are encouraged to engage with a client which aligns with the students interests and intended trajectory of professional work. This course supports students to develop skills and analytical approaches to work adaptively within a professional landscape, and navigate the challenges of working with clients, including receiving feedback and working towards fulfilment of an externally provided project. Students will create a project proposal, the final project deliverable, and a recorded presentation of their learning and experience.
