Kainos

The talk delivered by Hannah Fleming from Kainos was incredibly insightful, shedding light on the placement opportunity they offer in digital technology solutions. It was informative to learn about the company's focus on digital technology solutions and the integral role these placements play within their framework.

A particularly compelling aspect was the inclusion of a placement student, providing firsthand insight into the potential responsibilities and tasks awaiting successful candidates. Their account of the day-to-day experiences was invaluable, offering a realistic glimpse into what individuals might expect if they secure these placements at Kainos.

Furthermore, Hannah went into detail about the application process, which was immensely helpful. Understanding the intricacies of the application procedure provided clarity and guidance for prospective candidates. Learning about the steps involved and the specific requirements gave me a clearer idea of what to expect, making the application process seem more approachable and manageable.

Overall, the talk was highly informative and beneficial. It not only provided a deeper understanding of Kainos' digital technology solutions but also gave a realistic preview of the roles through the experiences shared by a current placement student. The detailed insights into the application process were particularly helpful and have better prepared me for pursuing potential placement opportunities at Kainos.

Character Design

This week, I dedicated my time to character designs for my SDG project. I utilised my earlier sketches and brought them into Figma, where I traced and refined them, since the sketches weren't flawless. I aimed for simplicity to suit the project's audience without diverting attention from the stories.

I used a base character and changed details such as skin colour, eye colour and hair style to create a range of characters. The colour of their hair, t-shirt and socks aligns with the SDG they are associated with from the original SDG’s on the United Nations website.
