I enjoy drawing in my free time but I'll admit to not exactly pushing myself out of my comfort zone a lot. This would be a good challenge to set myself alongside my final projects this year in creating portfolio pieces.

Reflection on last project and my new Module. 18/03/2016
The last project was compositing, which for me was my least enjoyable project. This was because I am still new to animation and find it challenging to produce. I also didn't have enough time to actually 'perfect' my drawings so the work I came out with, whilst I am happy with it, could have been more 'streamlined.' There is however potential with my little shape characters for use in future projects perhaps.
The current new module is to work on my portfolio. This involves creating illustrative artwork and showcasing my personal best in a final show and a photo book. I also have to enter a live competition which I have selected as the Adobe Awards, illustration category. I will be doing a realistic/fantasy digital painting.
I also have my PPD and work based learning modules to work on too for the final hand in. I have already completed my 'live brief' for WBL which was a weeks work experience at printing company Potts Print UK, based in Cramlington.
My targets for next Tuesday are to finalize my idea for entry to the Adobe Awards and start working on it. My deadline for my book and completed entry is 12th April 2016.
Five Week Timetable -
Week 1 -
Finalize competition idea and start working on it.
Week 2 -
Practice with illustration and create more 'personal' work, as well as continuing entry for Adobe.
Set myself the challenge of producing a small series of similar illustrations per week.. Push myself out of my comfort zone.

Have produced a series of work by the end of this week.
Week 4 -
Have produced a series of work by the end of this week.
