Lecture: Scott Duffey

For our first lecture back from Easter, we were introduced to Scott Duffey from Toucan Tango.

Toucan Tango is a company that designs gifts and prints that can be implemented into greeting cards, mugs and T-Shirts and have also worked alongside musical festivals. They operate with different companies throughout Europe and sell things online.

Scott told us during the lecture on how he got started, he graduated from the Chester Uni but did not feel prepared for the future, his first job was in a bar but he used his extra time to learn about some new software and managed to land his first design job thanks to his recently learnt skills of coding. He would later collaborate with other web designers to create The Print Social.

Scott gave us a few pieces of advise that may help prove beneficial to my own work, mainly to take breaks from the screen so you can revisit and look through the work again and perhaps have new thoughts about it. The second advise is to always involve your interests within your job.
