Newcastle to New York!

Former NULC Graphics student, George Myers, has seen his work showcased at one of New York’s most famous buildings, Grand Central Station.  

The cutting edge ‘3D’ animations promoting the UK's own Financial Times had commuters stopping in their tracks to take in these site specific adverts.  George, now an established editorial illustrator whose clients have included The Guardian and Financial Times, worked flat out on the project for a month but is understandably thrilled with the results and critical reaction.

During his fours years at the College, George studied the National Diploma in Visual Communication and A Level Graphics where he achieved an A grade, before progressing to study a Foundation degree with NULC. 

Mike Kelly, Assistant Head Of NULC Sixth Form, is delighted to see a  former student excelling.  Mike said: “ George was very quiet as a student but obviously had the quality of ideas and drawing skills to excel. It’s incredibly rewarding for the staff who taught George to see him fulfilling his potential in such a spectacular arena.”
