1. What skills have I developed through this brief
thus far?
I have learnt the basics in Dragon Frame and After Effects
to the point where I feel okay with my knowledge; however, due to my lack of
work with Moving Pictures at this point I can’t state that I am fully confident
with either.
2. What approaches to methods of image making have
you developed and how have they informed your development process?
Collage has played a large role in my Visual Journal,
despite this, and my planning to bring this across to Printed/Moving pictures,
this has yet to happen, thus hindered the quality/connectivity of my work. I
need to revise this.
3. What strengths can you identify in your work and
how have/will you capitalise on these?
My experimentation/investigation of media early on was
particularly strong and although it has waned somewhat it continues to be an
effective factor of my work thus far. This experimentation needs to inform my
final pieces more though, as has been stated in my peer review, there appears
to be a gap between my sketchbook work and my prints.
4. What weaknesses can you identify in your work
and how will you address these in the future?
The past few weeks have been tough due to personal issues,
which has been reflected in the quality of my work and attitude towards the
module. As I am learning to deal with these issues I must remind myself not to
let them interfere with my practice.
I need to stop dwelling on my work. If an image doesn’t work,
move on. Every piece of work that I make doesn’t have to be universally revered.
I’m still early into my career and can’t expect myself to be producing truly amazing
work at this point.
5. Identify 5 things that you will do differently from
this point and what do you expect to gain from doing these?
- - I need to bring collage back into my work, this
has continually been noted as a strong area of my work thus far and will help
improve the quality of it.
- - I need to bring more research into my work, I
still have plenty of time to research things to help me round off this module
and help me produce a better quality of work.
- - I can’t let my personal issues interfere with my
work. Everyone has problems and I need to get on with it. I can’t let my work be
victim to external issues.
- - I need to stop dwelling on my work. I need to
stop being afraid of doing work just in case it looks wrong. If something doesn’t
look right try to identify what is wrong with it and move on.
- - I need to understand my limitations. I have an
grand idea of what I want my work to look like, but I feel I’m setting the bar
too high and overstretching myself rather than focusing on making higher
quality work.
