Bloom 2023 - Swansea College of Art | University of Wales Trinity Saint David

GRAPHIC DESIGN BA (HONS) & CREATIVE ADVERTISING

20 23

Let’s dive straight into the flowery theme by inviting you to celebrate the achievements of our graduates from BA (Hons) Graphic Design and BA (Hons) Creative Advertising 2023 - a genuinely lovely bunch.

For the staff team, a privilege of our vocation is observing three years of growth & development in the lives of our students. As well as noting their skills as visual communicators, we get to see less visible, but equally necessary attributes becoming a part of who they are. Belief, confidence, resolve, diplomacy and humour. Some things are sensed rather than seen.

We share a space in time, meaning we witness days when all is well with the world, days when all is not. Busy days, slow days, missed my train days and bad hair days. Bursting with energy days and run out of fuel days. Days when we have to dig deep, encouraging strong roots as an investment for the future.

This group of individuals have been hardened by global circumstance and driven by high personal standards and passionate opinions. They have survived the frosts and storms and are stronger for it. Sometimes forced to adapt to new and unfamiliar forms of creative communication, they will be ready for the flexibility required to succeed in a rapidly evolving industry.

Our seedlings have grown. They are now in Bloom. We hope we have fed and nurtured them sufficiently to thrive on their own, and on their own terms. They are ripe and ready for picking.

Savour this moment. Inhale deeply and enjoy the sweet smell of success.

I’r tîm staff, braint o’n galwedigaeth yw arsylwi tair blwyddyn o dwf a datblygiad ym mywydau ein myfyrwyr. Yn ogystal â nodi eu sgiliau fel cyfathrebwyr gweledol, cawn weld priodoleddau llai amlwg, ond yr un mor angenrheidiol yn dod yn rhan o bwy ydyn nhw. Cred, hyder, adfer, diplomyddiaeth a hiwmor.

Rydym ni’n rhannu ein hamser am sbel, sy’n golygu rydym ni’n tystio dyddiau lle mae oll yn dda gyda’r byd, dyddiau lle nad yw dim. Dyddiau prysur, dyddiau araf, dyddiau colli’r trên a dyddiau gwallt gwael. Dyddiau llawn egni a dyddiau heb danwydd. Dyddiau lle mae’n rhaid cloddio’n ddwfn i annog gwreiddiau cryf fel buddsoddiad ar gyfer y dyfodol.

Mae’r grŵp yma wedi cael eu caledu gan amgylchiad byd eang ac yn cael eu cymhella gan safonau personol uchel a barnau angerddol. Maent wedi goroesi’r rhew a’r stormydd ac yn gryfach o’u herwydd nhw. Oherwydd eu bod nhw yn aml wedi angen addasu i ffyrdd newydd ac anghyfarwydd o gyfathrebiad creadigol, byddent yn barod am yr hyblygrwydd sy’n angenrheidiol er mwyn llwyddo mewn diwydiant sy’n datblygu’n gyflym.

Mae ein hadau wedi tyfu. Maent yn awr mewn Blŵm. Rydym ni’n gobeithio ein bod wedi eu bwydo a’u meithrin yn ddigonol i ffynnu ar eu pen eu hunain, ac ar dermau eu hunain. Maen nhw wedi aeddfedu ac yn barod i’w pigo. Chwaethwch y foment. Anadlwch yn ddwfn a mwynhewch arogl melys llwyddiant.

Bloom is a celebration of the work created by 33 BA (Hons) Graphic Design and BA (Hons) Creative Advertising students since starting our respective courses in 2020. The name Bloom represents us being at both the pinnacle of our degree and the pinnacle of our design ability. It also connects to trees and flowers, which are at their most desirable when they bloom. Each designer is represented by their own unique icon to reflect the different ways we have all bloomed over the last 3 years.

Throughout our time at university, we have had to deal with disruption from the pandemic. Despite this, thanks to our perseverance and dedication, we have emerged as highly capable designers who feel ready for anything.

- Year 3 BA (Hons) Graphic Design and BA (Hons) Creative Advertising

Mae Blŵm yn ddathliad o’r gwaith a grëwyd gan 33 myfyrwyr BA (Hons) Dylunio Graffeg a BA (Hons) Hysbysebu Creadigol ers dechrau ein cyrsiau yn 2020. Mae’r enw Blŵm yn ein cynrychioli ni ar frig ein gradd a brig ein talentau dylunio.

Mae’r enw hefyd yn cysylltu i flodau a choed, sydd mwyaf dymunol pan maent yn blodeuo. Mae gan bob un dylunydd eicon unigryw i adlewyrchu’r ffyrdd gwahanol yr ydym ni i gyd wedi blodeuo dros y 3 mlynedd diwethaf.

Trwy gydol ein hamser yn y brifysgol, rydym ni wedi angen delio ag aflonyddwch gan y pandemig. Er hynny, diolch i’n dyfalwch â’n hymroddiad, rydym ni wedi gorffen ein gradd fel dylunwyr galluog sy’n barod am unrhyw beth.

HUW

EDWARDS Huw is a unique and experimental designer who, inspired by what he learned during his foundation year, uses mixed mediums to create abstract, imperfect, and personal designs. He is fond of using collage to achieve this and always tries to design with a strong message in mind. Before designing, Huw spends plenty of time gathering inspiration from Pinterest and library books to soak in as much information as he can to plan out what he wants his designs to say and allows himself time to get into a creative headspace and let the ideas flow. Huw would like to lend his talents working for a skate company or an agency that creates murals and public art, combining his love of skating with his own personal style.

Mae Huw yn ddylunydd unigryw ac arbrofol ac, wedi’i ysbrydoli gan yr hyn a ddysgodd yn ystod ei flwyddyn sylfaen, mae’n defnyddio cyfryngau cymysg i greu dyluniadau haniaethol, amherffaith a phersonol. Mae’n hoff o ddefnyddio collage i gyflawni hyn ac mae bob amser yn ceisio dylunio gyda neges gref yn y cof. Cyn dylunio, mae Huw yn treulio digon o amser yn casglu ysbrydoliaeth o Pinterest a llyfrau llyfrgell i amsugno cymaint o wybodaeth â phosibl er mwyn cynllunio beth mae’n dymuno i’w ddyluniadau ei ddweud ac mae’n rhoi amser i’w hun i fynd i fan creadigol a gadael i’r syniadau lifo.

Hoffai Huw ddefnyddio’i ddoniau’n gweithio i gwmni sglefrio neu asiantaeth sy’n creu murluniau a chelf gyhoeddus, gan gyfuno ei gariad at sglefrio â’i arddull bersonol ei hun.

OWAIN

DAVIES Owain is a very experimental designer who has a particular fondness for 90s style print design. This is evident through his bold use of photography, typography, and colour. He achieves this by playing around with shapes and images to see what sticks and which rules he can bend to create a visually striking design. In his spare time, he likes to design album covers and posters for musicians. His time at UWTSD has helped him become a more professional designer, combining his Welsh-speaking abilities to score a job designing awards for ‘Y Selar’, a Welsh language magazine focusing on the music scene within Wales. In the future, he’d like to work for a creative graphic design studio.

Mae Owain yn ddylunydd arbrofol iawn sydd â hoffter arbennig at ddylunio print yn arddull y 90au. Mae hyn yn amlwg drwy’i ddefnydd eofn o ffotograffiaeth, teipograffeg, a lliw. Mae’n cyflawni hyn drwy chwarae gyda siapiau a delweddau i weld beth sy’n cydio a pha reolau mae’n gallu eu plygu i greu dyluniad trawiadol.

Yn ei amser sbâr, mae’n hoffi dylunio cloriau albymau a phosteri i gerddorion. Mae’i amser yn y Drindod Dewi Sant wedi’i helpu i ddod yn ddylunydd mwy proffesiynol, rhywbeth mae wedi’i gyfuno â’i allu i siarad Cymraeg i gael swydd yn dylunio gwobrau ar gyfer ‘Y Selar’, cylchgrawn Cymraeg sy’n canolbwyntio ar y sîn cerddoriaeth Gymraeg.

TOMASZ

TOMASZEWSKI When it comes to designing, Tomasz is a big thinker and a planner who loves creating contemporary designs and exploring urban spaces and the hidden meanings within them. While designing, he likes to keep a holistic approach in mind and takes a more unpredictable, design-by-doing approach when coming up with a project idea. This approach, as well as his drive to keep challenging himself, lends his designs a unique and visually interesting feel, supported by a strong understanding of the core graphic design rules. Tomasz would like to take his passion for working in 3D and with animation to ultimately work in the gaming or film industry, creating intro sequences.

Pan ddaw i ddylunio, mae Tomasz yn hoffi meddwl yn fawr, mae’n gynlluniwr sy’n dwlu ar greu dyluniadau cyfoes ac archwilio mannau trefol a’r ystyron cudd o’u mewn. Wrth ddylunio, mae’n hoffi cadw dull cyfannol yn y cof ac mae’n defnyddio dull mwy anrhagweladwy, dylunio-drwy-wneud wrth feddwl am syniad ar gyfer prosiect. Mae’r dull hwn, yn ogystal â’i gymhelliant i bara i’w herio’i hun, yn rhoi i’w ddyluniadau deimlad unigryw sy’n ddiddorol i’r llygad, a hyn ar sail dealltwriaeth gadarn o’r rheolau dylunio graffig creiddiol. Hoffai Tomasz ddilyn ei frwdfrydedd am weithio ym maes 3D a gydag animeiddio, i weithio yn y pen draw yn y diwydiant gemau neu ffilm, gan greu dilyniannau rhagarweiniol.

Mae’n mynd i’r afael â phob prosiect gydag agwedd optimistaidd ac mae’n sicrhau bod unrhyw syniad mae’n ei ddilyn yn cael ei ystyried yn ofalus. Gydol ei amser yn y Drindod Dewi Sant, mae wedi gweld bod ei arddull yn symud o arddull gymhleth, orlawn, i ddull mwy minimol ac ystyriol. Mae hefyd wedi dysgu i ddylunio gyda diben gadarn yn y cof. Yn ei amser rhydd, mae’n mwynhau mynd i’r gampfa, chwarae pêl-droed a chwarae gemau. Yn y tymor byr, hoffai Wiktor weithio i gwmni yn ddylunydd graffig, gan anelu yn y pen draw at ddechrau gweithio’n llawrydd.

CREATIVE ADVERTISERS

FFION BROOKE

THOMAS

Ffion loves bringing a splash of colour to her work, combining this with creative and thoughtful typography that plays with how we look at words. Her favourite types of projects involve typography and copywriting design. Before coming to a final design, Ffion likes to experiment with a whole host of ideas to see what sticks. This approach has served her well in university, which she has thoroughly enjoyed, and has helped her land freelance work with a marketing company. An avid PC gamer, she would love to work in the gaming industry or as a creative director (although her real dream is to run a doggy day care).

Mae Ffion yn dwlu ar ddod â sblash o liw i’w gwaith, gan gyfuno hyn â theipograffeg greadigol a meddylgar sy’n chwarae gyda’r modd rydym yn edrych ar eiriau. Mae’i hoff fathau o brosiectau’n cynnwys teipograffeg a dylunio ysgrifennu copi. Cyn dod at ddyluniad terfynol, mae Ffion yn hoffi arbrofi gyda llu o syniadau i weld beth sy’n cydio.

Mae’r dull hwn wedi gweithio’n dda iddi yn y brifysgol, a fwynhaodd yn fawr iawn, ac mae wedi ei helpu i gael gwaith llawrydd gyda chwmni marchnata. A hithau’n chwaraewr gemau cyfrifiadurol brwd iawn, byddai’n dwlu gweithio yn y diwydiant gemau neu’n gyfarwyddwr creadigol (er ei breuddwyd go iawn yw rhedeg gofal dydd i gŵn).

Her time at UWTSD has taught her to think outside the box, and she hopes to use her talents as an art director for an advertising agency such as Mother or adam&eveDDB, eventually aiming to become a creative director.

Mae Kira yn ddylunydd strategol, creadigol ac eofn sy’n gallu addasu’i harddull i fod yn addas i ba brosiect bynnag mae’n gweithio arno. Mae’n ffafrio dylunio corfforaethol, eofn ac mae’n mynd at brosiectau o’r fath gyda sylfaen dda o ymchwil, gan gymryd amser i danio syniadau am atebion creadigol newydd, a chan ymchwilio i oblygiadau cudd a negeseuon mae’n gallu eu hymgorffori yn ei dyluniad terfynol. Hefyd mae’n hoffi datblygu ymgyrchoedd integredig sy’n defnyddio elfennau o ffotograffiaeth a ffilm pan fo’n bosibl.

Mae’i hamser yn y Drindod Dewi Sant wedi ei haddysgu i feddwl yn wreiddiol, ac mae’n gobeithio defnyddio’i doniau yn gyfarwyddwr celf i asiantaeth hysbysebu megis Mother neu adam&eveDBB, gan anelu yn y pen draw at fod yn gyfarwyddwr creadigol.

SIM YEE

FOO

Sim is a designer who enjoys injecting a bit of fun into her designs.

She loves working on design that works to tell a story, using this as the focus of her idea. Additionally, Sim loves to use collage art in order to create eye-catching and interesting designs.

Mae Sim yn ddylunydd sy’n mwynhau cyflwyno ychydig o hwyl i’w dyluniadau. Mae’n dwlu ar weithio ar ddylunio sy’n gweithio i ddweud stori, gan ddefnyddio hyn yn ffocws i’w syniad. At hynny, mae Sim yn dwlu ar ddefnyddio celf collage i greu dyluniadau trawiadol a diddorol.
