Creative CV - Making of

Selling our souls


I think this was an important exercise to go through as in the future this will be what we give to employers but because the purpose of this was to find a group i didn't apply my full effort. I wanted it to be more visual than anything but I'm not happy with end product, its not in a style i draw and the colours are too saturated and not pleasant to look at. Of course it could be much worse but i know in the future that maybe a self portrait would be better suited. Also i think it should be able to translate into a business care as well. Networking is something i really need to work and push my self to do more of, and be more confident in showing my work and being proud of it. If you're not excited about your work no will be.

Belbin - Making of

Belbin roles - Making a balanced team  Going into this session, I still hadn't decided on which group i want to join but Annabeth said it should be decided by the end of this session. I had offers from a few groups but decided to join up with Jolanta, Elena and Alisha as i knew i wanted to another attempt at a 2-D group project and i felt like this team had good chemistry and was full of talented artists. Annabeth explained Belbin roles to us and how these 9 personalities make a strong balanced team.  When going through the Belbin roles i found that these four applied best to me;   Monitor Evaluator  -  I feel this suits me well as i know that the critical side of my brain is over developed and have always thought i had sound judgement when it came to decision making. Working very slowly resonated too deeply and is something I'm trying to work on. Team Worker -  I feel that my social relation when working in a group is always good,...

Creative play with digital media students

The day began in the maker space, along with the digital media students. The digital media tutor called Mark explained to us that we were going to be placed randomly selected groups and make a tower only using paper and no other materials. My team was nice however they were quite quiet, me and Decland tried to lead the conversation and get everyone talking and sharing, they opened up a but but even by the end of the day some members of the group weren't really talking. The first task was building the tallest tower using only paper and no other materials and at the top of the tower an egg for fifteen seconds. I felt like only half of our group were trying to work quickly and because we were working at a slightly slower pace to other groups it hindered the potential of the final product. As a team we decided that it was best to have the egg protected so it wouldn't die.  With our team being number one we were made to present first, and then we were told it would be measured f...

Sherm Cohen - Story boarding genius

Johnny recomendded watching this hour long video on storyboarding and i think annabeth did also, at first i was dreadding watching the whole thing but suprisingly i enjoyed the whole thing and was very disapointed that the final fifteen minutes were him selling his course. nonetheless this video explained susticntly a fanstasitc way of approaching a story board, as well as taking notes throughout the video, i also tried to copy along with the sketches he was doing. This blog is just a summary of the 7 points he made.        1.  Stepping foward -         Firstly he explains that your storyboard should follow 'film grammar' a type of progression of shots that have shown to be effective in captivating audiences. He does state that it is a pattern and not a perscription. The shots he mentions are: Establing shot (where we are) Full shot  Medium shot  close up  These shots are trypically used to show a...
