Today we had a trip over to Drummond Central to show Steve Drummond our book. To be honest, we both got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning and weren't really in the mood for it. However, we weren't about to waste this opportunity, so we forced the smiles onto our faces. We didn't need to force them for long though, as Steve was extremely impressed by our book and gave us some very positive feedback. He even predicted that our Metro campaign would get at least a nomination in the D&AD Awards (wowza!) - what a compliment! Perhaps we need to arrange to get him onto the judging panel to improve our chances? Steve also said how he knows the Marketing Manager for Metro itself and would gladly pass on our designs to him. What an opportunity!
Steve wasn't too open about giving us a definite date for a placement, but told us to go away, work on more campaigns and come back to see him in a couple of weeks. However, when we got back to college; Claire, the placement organiser told us how Steve had been on the phone to tell her how he would love us 2 to go in for a placement sometime, but couldn't confirm dates as he already has a few booked. Overall, what started out as a pretty crap day ended on a huge high for the both of us. Perhaps finding ourselves a job at the end of this course won't be so impossible?!
