Creative Convos: Eva Cremers

She studied International Business in the Netherlands, then changed to the Art Academy. She's currently over here living in London for a three month placement, practising 3d design. Her course at university required her to take a year out, she worked for Snask in Stockholm

She took the risk sending a box of celebratory props (pinyatta etc) saying how excited she was to be their new intern, it paid off and she worked there for five months.

Umbrella branding she was given the task of this as an intern all by herself!

Another project she was stuck on led her consider how can it stand out, hated animation so that wasn't an option so maybe how it physically moved / sounded? She ended up getting wooden mechanisms, but the motors in the end weren't strong enough so she had a nightmare twelve hours sorting this out. It was worth it in the end however:

There was a fan blowing the flag, things moving up & down, in & out ...

"You don't need the confidence you just need the courage. You can either feel safe and bored or challenged and scared. But you can't be safe and challenged."

Post graduation she grew her instagram, thought of fun projects to do, learn new skills 

Did a fun project with fried food, taking the piss out of current healthy eating / blogging trends.

Man Vs Machine messaged her asking for an internship

Created artwork for the New York Times, collaborated with Superfreak doing 3d design work.

• throw your work online
• use the positive side of instagram
• pinterest is training
• don't be afraid of 'big' designers
• being insecure about your work is normal
• not only your mum follows you on insta
• It's normal to have no idea what you're doing or what your plan is 

She's still unsure what she will do for perhaps the next five years of her life, it's okay to experiment as long as you're doing whatever you like.

(Have no shame in the maximum amount of Instagram tags!!)

Workshop 

In groups we were instructed to consider how we would lay out our exhibition as a team. The wilder the ideas the better...

Me and Monica presented and it went pretty smoothly, we had really engaged exciting feedback about the possibilities of creating an actual maze but say of people or hanging work or work as walls etc, thinking more realistically of course...
