Today was the formative assessments with Marcus Oakley and Pete Lloyd, this was to discuss where we are at with the project and what am i going to do over Easter.
My plan over easter is to laser cut and print my Mother Earth image and also design, laser cut and print 2 more over easter while the print room is quite before the mad rush after easter where everyone panics and decides they all want to use the print room!. Then i will only have one image to produce after Easter.
I like to work calmly and with plans in place so all my work is finished on time with maybe a few days before hand in to properly go through all my work and organise it.
I told Marcus and Pete this plan and they both thought it was good to have a plan like this in place but i should allow for mistakes to happen and not get to bogged down if things don’t go to plan. I rely heavily on the laser cut machine and you can’t pre book time on the machine you can only book time slots when the sign up sheet goes up on monday mornings and have to fight your way to it because we share the machine with graphics and fine art. Its a hot piece of property lately so i worry i won’t get booked in.
I am always in the studio by at least 9.30am in the morning so i am hoping my eagerness to be early and near the sign up sheet will make sure i get my allotted time slots.
Pete liked the idea for my degree show of hanging my pieces but said not to worry too much about that now until my final images are made and just concentrate on getting them designed and printed.
