Thank you to our outstanding industry judging panel and the respected leaders who continue to champion the NMTAFE Graphic Design program. This year’s judge teams included some long-standing supporters who have once again helped identify and celebrate exceptional emerging talent.
Recognised as Perth’s best Graphic Design, UX UI and Illustration program, linked closely with AGDA, PADC and DIA (and TDK!), we are grateful for Campaign Brief’s ongoing support, shining a spotlight on the future of our industry.
A big shout out to final year co-ordinators, Becky Chilcott and Juliette Dujardin for making it happen. Catalogues still available by request.
