Poor contracts and practice in this area disheartens and damages many illustrators; focusing on professional practice inspired me to explore how we can support the improvement of the illustration industry, say no to free and low-budget work and see illustration as the business it is whilst changing the misinformed perception that illustration is a simple hobby.• By volunteering as a Course Representative, I liaised with students, tutors, technicians and the wider AUB team. Responsibilities included gathering feedback from course mates and suggesting improvements for current & future students, helping to take part in organising events, such as fundraisers to enable us to showcase work at our grad show and produce collaborative ephemera.
