  New impact

  Oct 2008 - Dec 2008

  Graphic designer

  New Impact was a great place to lear how to work in an Agency. It was my first job (as an intern) and it was an amazing experience.Because I was able to do an internship in the area that I was studying it allowed me to have a vision of what my future job would be like.It was one of the best agencies that I’ve worked for, highly organised professionals and great clients.We did marketing sampling in businesses but we also rented advertisement space, similarly to JCDecaux but on a smaller scale.My job was to support the tasks undertaken by the Senior Graphic Designer, it included audio-video editing, vectorising and illustrating. I also designed reports for several Marketing campaigns as well as print ready files of all sorts. Show less
