Provokateur..the journey ends....

I've just returned from a 3 week work placement stint at a north london design studio called Provokateur. The organization works on environmental and charity based projects which makes it a hugely rewarding place to work. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there and learnt a hell of a lot of stuff which i can put to good use in the future, including how to create animations...so watch this space..

Check out their site..and ongoing work through the 'Acme Climate action' scheme
