Company 1
This is the first company that I plan on inviting to the end of year show, they are a relatively small London design agency that specialise in anything from branding to illustration. I like how they think in terms of craft too and I am particularly enamoured by some of their various invites. The 3d craft project is lovely, and utilises this lovely visual style that translates well into the pop-up structure. I also love the hand-drawn illustrations that is a common element throughout many of their branded invites.
Reasons for invite
I intend to invite this company to the show because they are semi local (London) they specialise in a range of skills (branding, photography, advertisements and illustration) key elements throughout our course. They are a relatively small studio and there is the possibility of work experience (I think their work suits Connors visual style so I think it would be good for him especially). I intend to send my own personal cv to them as well since they offer the possibility of work experience (which is one of my skill weaknesses) and I imagine it would offer some good drawing opportunities with real world clients.
Company 2
Agency rush is an agency in Brighton that essentially collects various illustrators and designers and then contacts specific ones with various job opportunities as and when clients contact them. It is a good agency for illustrators and freelancers and would offer the opportunity for collaborative efforts as well. It looks like a good agency for me in particular and it would be amazing to be contacted by any of the clients that they have worked with and that some of the designers and illustrators have worked with- Harper Collins and Penguin are both companies I have looked into and would love to work for.

Reasons for invite
They represent a diverse range of illustrators and designers, all of whom exhibit different visual styles and work in a variety of media. They are local and reside in Brighton and I think they would be very intrigued by some of the work we have produced. Again I intend to message them with some of my work examples - it can't hurt - and I think that my illustrations could possibly fit right in. I am going to hold of on doing so until I have completed my independent project since it would be nice to also offer some more motion image examples.
Company 3
Crush is an illustration branding company with a small team of designers who have worked on a range of projects, campaigns and book covers. They have worked with companies including, Disney, Penguin and MTV. I think they have made some very illustration driven pieces and I love the graphical style of the green peace campaign which is probably my favourite piece.
Reasons for invite
They are Brighton based, highly graphical and illustrative and they make lovely work and I think that we can offer designs that they may appreciate.
