When Tom Stamp produced a series of shots for his AS Level photography course, answering the brief ‘high rise’, he realised he’d made it big - huge, in fact - but he probably didn’t expect to be snapped up by the BBC.
Stamp produced a series of ‘giant’ images (see above) set around Peel Media’s MediaCityUK and posted them on Flickr.
After making the front page of Flickr Explore they caught the eye of the various creative sorts at the Beeb, who very much liked what they saw.
To mark the relocation of the broadcaster’s first tranche of staff to the new home of BBC North at MCUK, Stamp was asked to produce a similar themed shot for the cover of in-house title Ariel.
The latest edition - Week 20 - went to press as the staff moved in this Monday.
A BBC Ariel reporter commented: “We wanted to mark the opening of the Salford offices with a special cover, as it's a pretty historic moment for the BBC, so we commissioned Tom to design a cover with images of BBC North director Peter Salmon and some on-air talent who work for BBC North output.
“We were really pleased with his striking design and it's been a great opportunity to support a young local talent.”
After this sort of endorsement we’d expect Stamp to score a similarly huge result in his photography course. Good luck Tom.

Beth and Dans Wedding photos
Hi Philip,
Understand you have been on holiday, hope all was enjoyable. Thought the photos were excellent so much so that Beth & Dan are considering an upgrade if that is possible. Were hoping to send one to Courier if that is possible.
Again many thanks and hope to hear from you.
