Tommy - Interior Designer and Graphic Designer
A recent graduate now working in the design world. I met him in a pub and we started talking about our design work. He gave me some useful tips.
He said to always show your work in a confident way. Don't be embarrassed or not show work as you don't know where these opportunities will lead you.
I need to make sure I always have an up to date portfolio on my phone to show and business cards or an easy and quick way to give my details out.
International Bomber Command Centre
Lincoln
When visiting the International Bomber Command Centre in Lincoln I was interested to see they had their own section of Gin and Vodka.
The labels seem quite simple and 'touristy' but they are also quite clever as the inside of the label is a skyscape so that when you look into the bottle you can see the planes. These bottles have been made with the Comand centre in mind.
Bombers Moon is a term for a bright full moon. Pilots used the light of a bombers moon to focus in on their target.
Bombers Moon was also a wartime propaganda film from 1943 about a pilot who sought revenge on Nazi Germany after watching his brother get shot down.
