Turn Key Blog. Things we've done and the things we love.

Turn Key spent a (chilly) morning living the fast life with Porsches and horses. Following on from the very successful competition in the Porsche Post (“Your car, the star”), the winner of the competition (Adrian Hitchenor – pictured below) provided his car and horse for the photoshoot – watch this space for the finished advert soon!

Some seriously cringe-inducing moments.

Here’s their latest offering.

I’ve just witnessed the work of Simon Schubert via Quipsologies , and it’s pretty darn impressive.

We’ve just finished some work for our first luxury cashmere client. These shots show Sean & Rich’s trip to the printer to cast their eagle eyes over the foiling.

There seems to be a worryingly increasing trend of agencies asking for more and more from interns and offering little (or nothing) in return. It seems unfair to ask for an experienced junior designer (wouldn’t this render them no longer junior?) never mind an ‘experienced intern’ which I have seen a couple of times recently.

I agree that it’s an important and often necessary step in a young designer’s career to take part in an internship, however, it seems grossly unfair in asking for someone qualified to do the work of a full-time, experienced designer, when offering them – at best – their travel expenses and a few Rich Tea biscuits in return.

There, rant over.
