So Cathy came in to talk to us about her work, what its like running ANORAK and how it came to be. It was a really interesting and informative talk, especially seeing how it's grown from where it started to now. Listening to how she goes about commissioning and art directing was also cool - and nice to know for future reference if I ever want to send some work over to her!
After the talk - we went up as a group and introduced ourselves, as Bloop and discussed our idea with her. She was so lovely to chat to - she told us we all looked like a girl band (which was adorable) and coincidentally, the Aquarium theme we had gone with coincided with an upcoming issue of ANORAK that was 'Under the sea' themed (perfect timing!)
I think all of these paid off in our favour - because shortly after the talk she got back in touch with Matt and wanted information off of us ASAP! amazing!
We had another meeting afterwards, to put together a proposal document that we could send to Cathy to properly outline what our idea was. Here's what it looks like:
