Presentation Task- Planning

Presentation plan

Start with brief description of what I’m going to talk about
Give a background to myself, what I did before college
What it was like coming back to education
Breaking my practice in the first year
Feeling lost and not knowing what my practice was
Getting into a cycle of experimenting
Enjoying communicating through my work
Moving towards children’s books
Completely changed how I see my work
Lack of confidence
Building slowly

Questions
1 - I see my self as a children’s book illustrator who works primarily digitally. I write and illustrate children’s books and enjoy using humour and emotion in my work. I think I am at a stage where I need to step more into the professional world.

2- not really

4- online social media, through my website, entering competitions

5- I have been using social media to direct people toward my website, Instagram has been most effective so far bit I think other platforms will overtake it once I have more substantial completed projects.

6- I have had some but need to be more proactive in getting in touch with industry professionals, hopefully get some from the competitions I have entered as well

7- when I started my work did not have any meaning behind it, I wanted to make images that looked ‘good’ or impressive, this may be because I came from a background of graffiti art. I feel that the way I think about my work has changed massively over the three years as well as the aesthetic of it. I have learned how to apply my work within the industry.

8- useful, I value getting the degree but it isn’t the reason I came here, I wanted to learn new skills. I feel that the thought process that guides my practice is the most useful change and has had the most impact on my practice. On top of that gaining confidence in my work, understanding the industry and learning new processes have been the biggest changes through the course

9- where I was before coming here.


How I have changed over the 3 years. (Talk about struggles)
Where I see my practice now.
What I plan to do next.
Where I aim to be in the future.


10- to showcase my practice and be able to articulate what I do and who I am.
As part of the jobs I want to work on I will need to be able to explain my actions and choices, describe how and why I work as I do and promote myself .

11- yes, sections of it could be used on my website, could be taken forward into meetings with publishers etc. Build confidence is articulating my work. It will be useful to look back at in the future and measure if I have achieved what I wanted, have my goals changed and what progress I have made.

Stop motion
Jump off point, the future
Pause early on to slow pace
Humour to break tension
