we’re just in the process of putting together the august issue of the renaissance news. last month’s edition is now online in an adapted format for screen reading and in a large text version for printing out on the renaissance website. it includes a feature about creative coast.

the original concept was that the newsletter would be produced by a team of students at the university of hull scarborough campus who worked on the original concept of the new format. alas that project bit the dust when the school of arts and new media was formed but we’d love to have some student involvement still.

so… if you’re studying design at college or university level in the local area (or have just graduated) and fancy a couple of days in the electric angel studio helping to put a future issue together do get in touch. we’ll involve you in client meetings and the whole design and publication process. the only catch is that we don’t currently have a spare pc running xpress and photoshop although we do have a desk and a large monitor to plug into… so you’ll need to bring along your laptop or cpu when you’re in the studio. in return the newsletter will include a little feature about you, your studies and what you’re hoping to do next. the newsletter currently goes out to over 1500 local residents and businesses, so that’s not bad exposure, plus you’ll have a piece of real world work for your portfolio.
