As for the Final Show itself, it was a great time. My classmates' work was top notch and it was really interesting to see what everyone had been up to, and more than a little humbling too. As for my work, I wasn't really too happy with it... My board felt a little lifeless next to everyone else's, as did my portfolio and... well, I sort of felt like a bit of an underachiever, definitely. It was an odd contrast of feeling shameful of my own rubbishness and impressed by everyone else's work.
I mean, really, really deep shame.
It's sort of sad.
But despite it all, I've got a good idea of what I need to do to stop being ashamed. I need to get smart now; I need to get smart and organised. There are lots of options I hadn't even considered before - I mean c'mon, Paul's portfolio was a book! I wish I'd gotten a book made. It looked awesome!
Then there were postcards, business cards, t-shirts...
Well, time to stop mourning my incompetence and get on with working to overcome it. Here's the trailer I submitted:
I have some pictures too, but I took them on a dying phone that seems to hate my computer. So those'll have to wait.
Next stop,
Time to prove I can be competent!
Of course you're competent! You have fantastic work! If you ever need help with anything, don't be afraid to ask :)
ReplyDeleteMan, seeing that trailer of yours on the big screen in surround sound was badass! It'll be cool to see what you're able to finish by the Star and Shadow (yep, you got it fourth time!) exhibition. It could always be a teaser introduction if you're not able to finish everything. Either way, can't wait to see it!
