Guest speakers- Addison group & Eurocontrol


Today's guest speakers were Farina Broadley and Monica Balducci from (Addison Group). Addison group are a web development group and design websites for all platforms and mobile devices for companies. This was a particularity interesting lecture as this is the field I am aiming to go into for my placement year. They presented there company showing all of their awarding winning work which was truly inspiring they also showed some of the huge companies such as FIFA and Tesco which were there clients. There also was a Kent student with them he had done a placement year with them and was great as they showed the work they had given him and had really pushed him to his full potential. This speech inspired me more to follow up my ambition for webdesign.

The second guest speakers were two Kent students Ayshling Mulhern and James Thompsonat who had done there placement year at  Eurocontrol last year. The placement was in Luxembourg and they showed us some of the amazing events they had done whilst living there. They showed us some of the projects they worked on which was a flash animation they had updated for a flight control video. Aswell as a video they had to produce for the company to be in shown in conferences in a few places around the world. It showed a broad use of camera operating and digital skills. I feel that the placement would be a inspiring learning curve. I will apply for the Eurocontrol placement  as they spke very enthusiastically about how helpful this experience was and how much fun they had working.
