EX1 - What do I want/need from this course?
What I want/ might need from this course unit -
I would like to refine my skills
I would like to explore further my abilities with creative book design
I would like to get out of my comfort zone
I would like to see how wild can I go with book design as well as how minimalistic
What I am bringing into this course -
I have been teaching myself graphic and book design since I was 14, I have done a very long way and I feel like slowly I am refining my skills and having more of a signature for my work.
I have really enjoyed unit 1 of graphic design, but I must say I didn't see the marks I have received to match my actual work and the written feedback the assessors have attached to my assessment. I wont lie it did under motivate me, but I do believe my work is my art and not every one has to approve it.
I am actually picking up a lot of actual work and clients and I am very grateful for it. Therefore I feel like I need to manage my time better in order to keep up with studying as well.
I am very healthy but need to make sure I don't burn out as I do work a lot, on the screen and off the screen, so I do need to look after my working/ studying time vs. free/ recharging time.
I hope my journey here will take me places I haven't been before with my creative and productive work.
