The Final Curtain... but it's not over till it's over...

wow... what a feeling to have submitted everything... apart from one final deadline.. The showcase launch was a real success, and have had a lot of interest in my work already! :) - having my display in the background on the showcase feature on STV news was a nice surprise, and hopefully a small taste of whats to come in the future. From now till the 3rd of June I will be based in HMC as much as I can... and getting my CV out to as many companies as I can - you never know :)

I'm going to work on updating my showreel for the final deadline, along with examples of my press pack and showcase display for the professional practice deadline.

End of year presentation

The presentation went ok today.. I just hope I covered all the key points I needed to cover... I wish I didn't get so nervous.

Now it's down to the dissertation, and I'm awaiting final feedback on it. I still have the referencing and bibliography to sort and finish. I now have the computer in my spot for the showcase, and it's starting to look really nice. I'll be a lot happier when I get my boards and lettering up on thursday. I plan to submit my dissertation on thursday night/friday morning.

I think that the showcase will be a success despite some of the debates that have been going on regarding some things.

After I have a "relaxing" weekend, I'll get to work on the submission for professional practice. :)

Showcase Spot

I've spent 2 full days working on this, but I think it has been worth it. The text does show impact. I intitialy wanted to use spray paint, but after a few tests it just wasn't going to work.

I'm glad this is just about finished, as I will need all my time left to get my dissertation up to scratch.

Showcase Update

Preperations for the showcase are coming along nicely. Here is my promotional "merchandise" presspack :) - Which includes:

T-shirt
Cap
Business cards
Postcards showng project info
A mug
Mouse mat
Pen
Keyrings
Poster

Project Submission

All the work needed for the project submission is complete. :D - I've mounted my boards, and burnt the DVD's needed... so by tomorrow 4th year is almost over! :O

I've recieved feedback on my dissertation, and there are still quite a few changes to make, but at least after tomorrow I can sit down and focus on what needs to be inproved.

Tomorrow I'm going to see my spot for the showcase, as the table is now in place. I've got some areas to finish and touch up. Go to our final showreel meeting, and the showcase meeting at 1.

I'm going to start my powerpoint presentation on thursday, consider the structure of it and what I'm going to say. I know I'm going to be nervous because most people always are.. but I also want to enjoy it, as it will be the last presentation of the year! :O
