INTRODUCTION

Industrial training is refers to work experience that is relevant to professional development prior to graduations.

It is a small company that doing decorations and planning an events that the clients decided. Sometimes, the company also designs some banner, backdrop and some favors like designing calendar or diary according to the clients wants.

I choose this company because I want to have experiences in working in the graphic design industries and interacts in clients in this industries.

Usually I would design small things like props and backdrops and hampers deco. Sometimes I my superior bring me to the site or the event place to help them to deco, usually this is for the big event like weddings. The clients that I would works with will thoroughly from my superior. Because the company is small and they only take one intern so mostly I work alone there with my superior.

TRAINING WORKS

My training works also start on my first day of internship. Where I was given a job on creating membership card for a beauty facial salon. The salon name is Born Beautiful Beauty Centre.

When I received this assignment, I was a little bit confuse because my superior just give the envelope of how to be a member of some certain Bank. Then I understand what she want me to do and I check the client website and founded that they theme is purple. So I created they card like this. Then they want the card with Christmas theme cards to be given to the member of their beauty centre.

Before I created the cover page, I look up what is sweet sixteen theme is and found out it consist on pastel type of colors like pastel pink, pastel blue and pastel purple. So this my design on the cover page of the diary.

CONCLUSION

From this industrial training, I learn that I need to done anything and finish it on time or before the event start. I also learn how to handle clients that has too many requests and a little bit confuse on what they want from my superior and also to avoid printing wastage and costs when doing some projects.

I also learns about time management in doing some projects and how to communicate with clients and also to give my opinions on something without any push over.

REFLECTIONS

From my industrial training, I learn that I should have the confident in making my own decision on what I'm going to do. I also about the time management and to finish the job on the dateline given. I also about handling a clients and communication between a designer and their clients about their own decision.
