<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Sam Chambers graduated with a First Class degree in Graphic Design and is also the recipient of </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The Sheaffer Prize for Use of Language in Graphic Projects.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> He is now drawing up plans for a career in the industry.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sam was always interested in art and wanted to study graphics because of the variety of fields on offer and the opportunity to explore different avenues of creativity.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He said: “The variety on offer under one roof at the University was appealing and the lecturers were clearly passionate about what they do. They gave outstanding support and guidance, making the process a lot easier.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">“I really enjoyed working on live projects during my time at the University, getting the opportunity to practice projection design – projecting graphics on buildings in Wolverhampton. I also took part in an organ donation competition where I met the Mayor of Wolverhampton.”</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sam’s aim is to expand into the world of media, focusing on motion graphics and graphics for TV shows, films, conferences and digital media.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">He added: “Overall, my experience at the University was honestly life changing. I came in as an unsure, relatively unconfident individual and it has completely transformed me into someone who is ambitious and driven.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">“Mainly by gently pushing me outside of my comfort zone and giving me constant support and advice, my lecturers were amazing. And that would be my advice to graduates – you’ll learn so much and gain so many new skills if you put in the time and the rewards are worth it.”</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sam is now working as a Junior Live Graphic Designer and Operator at DRP Group.</span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My Masters Project is a Graphic Novel that tells the story of a young, Afghan refugee and the things that occur on his flight to Germany. The depicted incidents that happen during the journey are based partly on a personal interview, and partly on a study about the experience of flight, whereby results are based on 123 qualitative interviews. I unified these elements into a fictional story that is based on true incidents. The subjective experience of flight is at the centre of my Graphic Novel, but there are also information pages about the refugee crisis as a phenomenon of the mass immigration to Europe and the history and meaning of the right to asylum.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Beauty of Diversity</b></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">My research has explored the meanings and definitions of identity and beauty. What does it mean to be beautiful today? How do you learn to feel beautiful and why is it that outer beauty has such a huge significance and value for us? People, particularly of our generation, have tremendous problems with finding their own beauty and often feel compelled to adapt to certain standards. Western society provides many norms and rules. Society impacts how we view, respond, and react to every experience. How can we find a true self (an identity) in a society that has little tolerance for diversity? This project is about people who are affected by society’s stiff standards and stereotypes in relation to Sexuality, Gender & Race. With my Portraits I want to demonstrate different definitions of beauty away from the conventional standard. I want to celebrate the beauty of diversity and make people rethink their biases.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Questioning my previous illustration practice, I came to the conclusion that the ‘had-rendered aesthetic’ - which has become ubiquitous within food packaging and advertising, reminds us of times when attitudes were optimistic and less complicated by choice, technology, and the shortcomings of consumer culture. I seek to create work incorporating digital art with infographics and elements of graphic design. Making use of psychedelic colour schemes, I aim to subvert the way food and consumer choice are presented through advertising, as a means of exposing the artifice and superficiality of lifestyle. Addressing the class implications of healthy organic raw lifestyles, I hope to highlight the fact that these are being promoted from a position of privilege whilst other people are living below the breadline.<br /><a href="mailto:josephwilliamsondesign@yahoo.com">josephwilliamsondesign@yahoo.com</a></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This project looks at the way in which societies opinions have changed since the part decriminalisation of male homosexuality in 1967. It delves deeper into the issues surrounding LGBT people, and the difficulties that many in smaller communities and different cultures around the UK face, as well as those in sport such as football; and although the law has changed in a positive way, the project also asks whether society has changed with it? The project aims to tell stories in a compelling way using photography, video, and sound.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After nearly a year of studying in the UK, I was exposed to a lot of western art styles and I discovered that these art styles are very different from China, both in painting and design. My work seeks to use Western Art Styles to depict and display elements of traditional Chinese culture, so that when combined, these elements convey a new visual effect. The Cheongsam is a traditional costume of Chinese women, and I have therefore chosen to use the visual language of the cheongsam as the main element of my design. When visual elements of Western and Chinese culture appear in the same compositional space, they are both contradictory and unified, so my work aims to convey a special relationship between both cultures.</span><br />
