Flickr

As i was having problems uploading my pictures to my blog, i created a flickr account. I have also wanted people to view my wok and not have to go through every page so i also added a flickr strip to make this easier.

Feel free to have a look.

The kids activity pack

For the last couple of days i have had the opportunity to be able to help Georgina with here activity morning/afternoons wth the children from different school. We had so any activities going on it was so fun being able to watch the childrens face with all the different people as they learnt something new.

Today i was asked to take all of the photos for the school. it was so funny getting the children to pull silly faces as we took pictures of them with there hates that they had made.

Vintage

There was a few moments that i felt that we wasn't going to have a show as we was so behind with setting up and actually displaying the work. The day before the show was due to be open was a nightmare. We had no work on boards there was still things all over the room it just seemed near impossible. So me and a few others volunteered to come in on Saturday morning to help finish things off and and the finishing touches. after all are hard work we pulled it off.





Above are some images from are show.

Friday the 17th June we had are private viewing of are end of year show 'Vintage'. I have never felt so nervous and excited at one time. After all the time, increased stress levels and effort that have gone in to all the preparation of the show has been amazing. we had so many people come to see the show, whether it was parents, brothers and sisters, partners or just old school teachers. it was amazing! Just watching people s expressions and reactions as they was looking at all of the different work from us all.

I really enjoyed this experience and its something that i am proud to have been apart of. I'm also extremely grateful o all my tutors for all the help and advice they have given me over the last 2 years. the last 2 years have gone so quickly i really don't know where it has gone. I have learnt so much and met some amazing people. Thank you!

Progression


After many months of hard work preparation and interviews. I have finally decided that ii i am going to the University of Greenwich. here i am going to study Graphic design and advertising for 2 years. I'm looking forward to developing my knowledge even more and learning more interesting things. I really feel this step is going to be the best one for me as i feel i don't know everything there is to know about this industry.

As a Graphic design i want to be able to push myself to the best of my ability. After these 2 years i intend on completing my BA hons also. From here i would really like to proceed on to a career within the industry, but i would also like to maybe do an apprenticeship just so that i have the experience of the industry before going in to it all first.

FMP final




Here are some of the images i took of my final FMP Alpro Soya Packaging. I am really happy with the way this has turned out. I think with the new logo and style it works very well. It also works well on the packaging to.

FMP

Well after 9 weeks of hard work, i have had my Final Major Project of which i redesigned the Alpro Soya logo. I have received my marks back. i was slightly disappointed as i didn't do as good as i thought i would have. so at the moment i am working towards improving my grades and getting it to the standard i wanted it to.

Here is a scan of my mark sheet:

Keep Calm..





I was looking on the internet for a 'Keep Calm' poster that i could save to my memory stick for a member of my family when i come across these. I really think they are great.
