Posters bring student cash

POSTERS including a Hawaiian shirt, a dog wearing a coat and a pair of “tasteless” stilettos have won an advertising student a scholarship from the UK’s leading professional body in the field.

Andrew Walker, from Napier University, has been chosen for inclusion in the British Design and Art Direction Awards 2008. He received a £500 scholarship from the Institute of Practitioners in Advertising.

Mr Walker, 34, created three posters for use inside branches of HSBC during the January sales.
