Hi all! I'm Jasmine, a second-year anthropology student, and your current Graphics Editor for the Cheese Grater Magazine! This year has been my first foray into student journalism, and it's been one of the most fulfilling experiences I've had here in UCL— and I'm standing again because I believe there's much more I can offer that I haven't done yet! From working more closely with the investigative section to deliver critical visuals, to developing a graphics-specific space for editorial cartoons, I believe there's a place for graphics that can be further explored within the publication.

My time here in the Grater has been nothing but growing experiences— the creativity I've witnessed by our contributors is incredible, and from what I've learned about my role this past year, I'd love to nurture this energy even further!

Besides, with all the UCL shenaniganry going on, the material writes itself, honestly.

Hi! I'm Kotryna and I've been involved in graphics for The Cheese Grater for this past year. Despite my first couple graphics making me seem like a Bentham fangirl (Playboy Bentham, Sabrina Carpenter x Bentham crossover), I promise that I can draw other 'normal' stuff (maybe). I've really enjoyed being able to participate in The Cheese Grater through my silly drawings and hope to be able to be even more involved next year if I become Graphics Editor.

  • Aside from promising to continue producing goofy graphics, I also hope to encourage others to do the same by sending frequent updates on upcoming articles so that people are able to choose whatever fits their niche best.
  • Something else I'd like to try out to encourage graphics is setting aside some time in meetings to play games like Gartic Phone, where it's easy to involve everyone, regardless of their confidence in drawing/skillset, since it could potentially result in (at least somewhat) funny ideas that people might not have thought of previously. By keeping the topics related to whatever's going on that week, or just broadly UCL-themed, I think such an activity could result in more one-off graphics/comics.
  • Other ideas include potentially having some form of casual 'Drink + Draw' socials with prompts like Bentham (once again), typical Scala attendees, etc.

Thank you for reading :),

Kotryna.
