Day 4: Internship at BBH


On Thursday morning I wasn't sure where I was supposed to be so I carried on with my work for Barnardo's. I then moved on to researching more drinks brands on Facebook. Following this I went over to Ben and Joe's area within the digital department as I was sure I was supposed to be with them today. Joe greeted me and tolde me he had some work needed doing for the Fruit Shoot website. I was asked come up with new ideas for content within the site as well as new competitions children could become involved with. I looked at what Fruit Shoot competitors were promoting on their sites and looked at the strong and weak aspects of the Fruit Shoot website.

I had a number of ideas floating around for good, engaging content but wanted to wait until tomorrow until I presented them to Joe.

Day 3: Internship at BBH



Day 3 I spent with Darius, an Engagement Planner who was a key person in helping me interview BBH for my dissertation. I was asked to help out with a project he has been working on for the children's charity Barnardo's.
I looked for media articles where children have been 'dehumanised' being called things like 'ferel', 'scum' and 'slime'. To my surprise I was able to find many examples with ease. To be fair most of them had been against teenagers who had done some disgraceful murderous acts. But there were some aimed at children in general which is very wrong.

I spent the day working on this but also managed to continue doing some work for Tango that Ben had asked me to look at the day before.
