Ella Riley's

So the summer holidays are nearly finished for me...
My summer was great and I managed to accomplish what I had planned to do in terms of designing - to do some kind of internship. I had the opportunity to re-design Ella Riley's, a sweetshop based up North. Being a sweetshop made the whole experience a lot more fun! It was an unpaid internship but at the beginning of it I was told that if all went well and they liked the work I produced that I would be able to carry on designing as a freelancer for them. They asked me today if I would like to carry on designing for them on a paid basis so I have obviously accepted this!
Above is the logo I designed. I have to admit logos are not my strongest point but I think this one works well for the company...

This experience was very good as it helped develop my skills and also build my confidence when it comes to designing work for a client. I have also got quite a lot of work I can add to my portfolio which is good. Apart from being used in there shops some of the work is also going to be published which is great.
