Hello!
Welcome to the Milladrome! On this website you'll find my graphic design portfolio, be able to find out what work I do and enjoy reading a sporadically updated blog about my work. My name is Camilla Fellas. I have just graduated from Norwich University College of the Arts having studied for a Bachelor in Design for Publishing (with honours). I have been working as a freelance Graphic Designer throughout my university and college years, primarily working on creating web graphics but my study has been focused on print design which is my speciality. I'm extremely interested in typography and absolutely love the printed word.
Background
I am twenty one years old and have lived in the UK my whole life. However, my heritage spans back to Cyprus. My Grandfather and his brothers left Cyprus for England in 1947 for a new life and we've been here ever since. I finally managed to visit for the first time in 2006, which helped spark my interest and passion for Photography, as it is a beautiful place. I hope in the future I can become more involved with my heritage and learn Greek properly!
Education
My history with design goes as far back as to 2001 when I was only twelve years old. My Dad bought me this domain name and I set about making my own website (in Microsoft Publisher! What did I know?) Luckily I've learnt a lot since then, but it was those early days of making websites, creating gifs and designing website banners that cemented my love for design.
At High School, my passion for design grew more as I completed GCSE Graphics and was awarded a Graphics Prize at my school for my coursework. While there I also completed GCSE's in English Literature and Language, Maths, Double Science, German, History and Double Applied IT.
After this, I went to a Sixth Form College to do A Levels in Graphics and Photography and AS Levels in English Language and Spanish. I came in the top ten nationally two years running for my photography work and was awarded the Dr Lettis Bequest for Work in Art. At the same time I also studied Japanese at an evening class. From there I headed straight to university and after three years I am now graduating from BA (Hons) Design for Publishing at Norwich University College of the Arts. This year I entered the International Society for Typographic Designers (ISTD Student Assessment Scheme and I have passed the assessment—this grants me membership to the ISTD and I have also worked on a live book design project for the Unicorn Press.
