The Consult.

The Consult are an agency based in Leeds.

They do a lot of branding, but also advertising, exhibitions and even websites. I really admire some of their work, especially the branding, but what I like more is how they work to such a large range of media.

In this last project (the type factory) I adapted the identity to the signage and exhibition graphics. This is something I really enjoyed and it would be great to do this alongside the branding/identity.

Here's some of their work:

The feedback I got for my portfolio.

"Hi Heather,

I think the most successful pieces are the "What makes you feel good?" and breakfast drink packaging. These are projects I'd explore some more. Perhaps look more into the target audience, study the competitors' packaging carefully - ensure yours is realistic - consider what it'll look like on the shelf - are the small fruits right? You can't see the contents – innocent show you theirs - proving it's natural lumpy pureness. What is your product hiding? Have a look at packaging design from Pearl Fisher, Elmwood and a few others.

The TF work doesn't seem to read well to me. Looks like if. Maybe work on this and don't get bogged down with showing off maya skills so much.

Also, explain your work clearly and pay attention to the layout consistency – this is another piece of your work.

Hope this helps.

Alex"

This is definitely somewhere that I would like to keep in contact with and possibly organise a placement with further down the line.
