ESKIMO

Genevieve McKelvey &
Clare Stephens
Art Directors

“We are really impressed with the high standard of professionalism, enthusiasm and passion from our mentees and their fellow students as seen at the end-of-year exhibition. It’s great to see a wide range of work in their folios from typography and packaging through to advertising. The briefs set are realistic guides of what they might be given when working in a studio and are sure to give them a good insight into what will be expected of them once they enter the workforce.”

LANDOR ASSOCIATES

Mike Staniford
Executive Creative Director

“Over the last five years Landor has built a strong relationship with Billy Blue with the deliberate intention of reducing the gap between industry and education. As part of our Shine design internship program, now in its sixth year, we offer places to the brightest and most dynamic students that we believe are ready to play a part in our business. Without fail the interns we’ve taken on from Billy Blue have shown an incredible degree of enterprise, energy, enthusiasm and creativity. They have quickly become invaluable members of the team, working on major projects for both domestic and international clients. We plan to give this on-going relationship our full commitment.”
