In with the The Neighbourhood

It's not often that students prove themselves to the extent that they're offered a job before they even graduate from their course, but Sarah Brewster has done just that, after a work placement with the The Neighbourhood in the heart of the creative community in Manchester's Norther Quarter. The Neighbourhood, who describe themselves as 'a creative studio were stories and worlds come to life across many forms of visual communication' also have a clear central philosophy

'We think broadly. Dig deep. And ask lots of questions. As a result, we discover truths and translate them into appropriate, engaging and finely crafted content.'

Sarah, has already joined the company as their new Project Aministrator.

'My role is to assist the Producer and Project Co-Ordinator of the Animation and Architectural Visual teams. I will aid their workload by helping to liaise with clients, keep projects updated so that the teams know what progress they're making and assist with meetings and work scheduling. With my goal ultimately being to become a Producer myself, this is a great starting point!'

Sarah, will graduate in July from the BA (Hons) Design & Visual Arts programe. She specialised in Moving Image, she goes on to say,

'My three year study of the animation field will really enhance my role at The Neighbourhood, as I'll have a thorough understanding of the different techniques and time scales that go into making a piece of moving work.'
