Overal My expierence at Sundays was extremly useful although I realised it is not the area of work I would like to go into after university, I did learn a lot of things and got to dip in and out of alot of areas because of the agency being larger. Being at sunday has removed alot of the aniextys I orginaly had about joining a agency for experience, because the people where extremly friendly.

My key points at sundays was probaly working on the photoshoot, I learn alot about management and the process of a still life photoshoot as well as how unfriendly smaller agencys could be.

My thoughts 

This talk was for me so far the most beneficial it changed a lot of my preconceptions of the advertising industry. I got the impression that they cared about the work they was putting out and the impact of it. As well as young creatives it gave me confidence in the advertising industry as something I would like to explore.
