Test Pilot would like to give a warm welcome to Dylan as the newest member of our Junior Design Team.

DYLAN GOOLAGONG

Hi, my name is Dylan and I'm an artist and illustrator.

I have always had a strong love and passion for art ever since I was a child. Originally, I started off with traditional art doing crosshatching using ink and paper. then moved on to calligraphy before trying hand at painting. Now, most of my works are in the form of digital art.

My main goal is to pursue my passion and make a living out of it. I am looking forward to be working with Testpilot!

Test Pilot would like to give a warm welcome to Aryan Gomez to our Junior Design Team.

ARYAN GOMEZ

My name is Aryan and I'm a designer for Test Pilot.

My background is mostly industrial design, but I've always enjoyed using the Adobe programs in my spare time and teaching myself more about graphic design. I like the process of creating something new to put in front of people and in their hands.

I'm hoping, through working with Test Pilot, to see the skills I already have with fresh eyes and along the way develop new skills in the world of design.

Today we enjoyed a delicious lunch to help us bid a fond farewell to Kim, who has finished her traineeship with Test Pilot. She has been a delightful and hard-working addition to the team and we wish her the absolute best in her endeavours in the future.

Test Pilot had a visit from Jia-wei from the Department of Industry who really enjoyed meeting everyone and in particular loved the work the new design team is doing.

Test Pilot has selected 3 young people to be employed for 6 months as trainees, commencing February 4th. Introducing:

AMELIA EDWARDS

My name is Amelia! I'm a digital artist / illustrator and sometimes enjoy animation too! I've always appreciated graphic design since as long as I could remember while not fully realising it. I feel as though one of my passions and skills in this case is having an appreciation for aesthetic and composition. I love to indulge in different styles, trends, and metaphor when it comes to creating artworks.

When creating I love watching my visions come to life. Finalising a loose idea that has intrigued me for some time is always a satisfying feeling; I think I love that the most when I'm creating new things.

Applying for Test Pilot came with the hope that I would be always be able to create and share my ideas as I've done my entire life, whilst being able to translate that creativity and freedom into a career! I want to find my strengths and weaknesses, figure out where I belong (artistically), and hopefully find that through the guidance of Test Pilot.

HAYDEN WYER

Hey hey, my name is Hayden and I'm a designer. I've always been a creator at heart, whatever tools are put in front of me, my first instinct is to make something new.

I'm predominantly self-taught, using books, guides and online classes to learn painting, sketching, sculpture and model-making amongst other things. Though graphic design as a career is relatively new to me, working with Test Pilot feels like a great opportunity to make a job out of my hobby.

NOHADRA ESHOW

Hi, my name is Nohadra Eshow and I am a Junior Graphic Designer at Test Pilot.

My creative skills are creating artworks and designs that catch the eye and help people see design/art in a clean form. Creating allows me to express the ideas that come up in my head to turn them into a actual project.

I applied for Test Pilot because it was offering everything I was looking for to help my graphic design career. I hope to learn new design skills and adapt to how a design company works with different types of clients.

DECEMBER, 2018

Over November and December 2018, Test Pilot ran 6 graphic design workshops at the Ted Noff’s Street University Liverpool. This was an opportunity to introduce many young people who have creative talents to the world of graphic design. Over the course of the workshops, attendees were given insights into working in the creative industry as a career potential and some basic use of the Adobe programs to execute their own designs. It has been a fantastic means of engaging the young people in our community and we are very excited with the interesting skills we have unearthed already.

OCTOBER, 2018

Kim commenced her traineeship with the Test Pilot Designing Futures program.

JUNE 21, 2018

The team at Test Pilot sat down with The Street University Liverpool crew to discuss partnering up and collaborating to get the most out of the young people that become a part of the Designing Futures program. We are really excited about teaming up for workshops and mentoring sessions.
