When DR.ME (collaborative creative name of Mark Edwards and Ryan Doyle) came in to their talk I was unsure of what was going to be present as their Twitter said they were preparing a 'talk'. Rumours were that they were going to present through Skype which would have been weird but what was even unusual was the way they actually did the presentation. Instead of doing the usual standing at the front and presenting work they had prepared an automated voice to explain their journey before and after university.
As usual lectures are voiced by the person from the company we tend to zone out after a bit but as this presentation was unconventional it kept me engaged and told me a lot about the duo. It told me that they were inventive, out of the ordinary and unique which is exactly what you need as a graduate. From the lecture the main idea that stuck to me was that if you try your hardest, don't get disheartened, network with designers and enjoy yourself whilst doing your work opportunities will slowly start to come up. This is proved by the fact that DR.ME had done so much within 7 month of leaving university.
