<span style="color: #741b47;">I reworked my website in time for the exhibition preview as I was originally very unhappy with the layout.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">It still has a few things in need of doing/adding but I feel much better about directing potential clients to it!</span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I've been working on some product designs for a part of my final exhibition using the animal designs I created over Christmas last year. The images underwent a re colour and texture process to improve the quality which is fairly noticeable when compared against their originals.</span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I've started working on some example pieces for my agent. I'll just be uploading all the images into this post as I go along so it'll be updated constantly until I'm satisfied with the number. Then the best will be sent off to my agent for preview.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">We're hoping that people will take an interest in the pieces ranging from A4 to A3 sizes printed on canvases. The artwork uses a range of random objects provided by the individual.</span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I've moved on a bit since the first time I wrote one of these, I have a greater understanding of where I'm heading from here on out along with much needed experience to see me through it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">My original hopes covered creating a body of work I was proud of, alongside a successful portfolio and to see my work circulating in print. Over the last couple of months I have managed to achieve work that I am comfortable with sharing, I've enjoyed my working progress throughout my FMP and the work produced will remain in my portfolio and on my webpage for some time as a result. My portfolio has been refined and I am pleased with the overall look and impression that it imprints on people's minds, I feel it reflects me and my style appropriately. Of course it's a given that it will always be going through improvements and updates but at its current state I am happy to show it to a potential client and talk through the processes. It is still early days in terms of circulating my work however over the last couple of weeks I have been screenprinting designs onto canvas bags and sheets of paper which can all potentially lead to future sale possibilities and ideas. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">My website has come along since my original post, it is still going through its final adjustments and having the edges buffed but it is now a self standing document and has a valid url that will be printed on my next set of business cards in time for the final exhibition. In terms of my confidence in meeting with clients regretfully time has not allowed me to get many visits under my belt but I did however have a meeting with an agent whom has taken me on since. I felt I was able to talk freely to them and openly discuss ideas for the future in terms of work and clients. We spoke at length on what skills I could offer and what work could be produced and this has instilled a great sense of relief to me knowing that it is possible, that I can produce this work and that people will be interested. It remains to be seen how much work I can acquire but it's definitely a start!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">In terms of my personal style, I've always felt my work was too diverse, too many different styles and too much uncertainty in my working method but now that I've sat back and looked at my portfolio and the prints selected for my website alongside my current train of work I can see there are clear links. The ultimate one being colour and texture, I enjoy producing brightly coloured work with a range of different textured backgrounds and overlays. One of the things my agent pointed out was that I often focused on the detail of each image which was a pleasing benefactor. Animation was also a large part of my potential interests to cover and just recently I have managed to achieve short animated frames, this has instilled confidence within me as I now know it highly possible [with time] to make short animated projects, there is still always much more to learn but I'm on the first leg of the ladder at least.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">My fears covered lack of confidence, work and uncertainty - since my arrangements with my agent were made the majority of these have been lifted a little. I know that now, providing there is an interest, I am in a more favourable position of finding work due to the handling of an agent. I know the work expected of me as we discussed possible commision based pieces and I feel confident that I can achieve that which is asked of me. It is also a positive position as this combats my fear of losing artistic input in my own work, as these pieces are commission based the client will have certain points of input but the rest will be left up to me. I still feel myself falling short in confidence when I attempt to compare my work however I also understand it is a broad market and while it is over subscribed - people have different tastes and it's always possible my work will suit someone within it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">Opportunity wise I have taken part in a handful of live briefs over the last couple of months, which I have definitely enjoyed. The feeling of submitting the work has always been a satisfying one for me and it is what I enjoy the most with live briefs as due to the short time there will be a period of crazy and then sudden relaxation [providing I've kept up with it]. With the uploading of my peers websites and their ongoing blogs I have been able to keep myself inspired through their work and achievements, I have also been looking round the studio more often to see what others are getting up to which has beneficial in many ways. I have experimented with several techniques as well as returning to screenprinting for the last leg of this project which was something I hadn't originally intended to do but found myself enjoying [nearer the end] </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">Overall I am much more confident in terms of my future - the majority of my fears - while still very real, are a bit more manageable with the progress I have made. With this outlook I'm looking forward to the future rather than dreading it. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I finally finished it! I've uploaded a teeny, limited colour and dithered version of it in giff form above as the original file is too large for blogspot to host. I made several variants but due to the time it takes for rendering and such I'll only be showing them in img form below. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">As you can probably guess it's based around the Evil Queen and her poisoned apple. I used the frame design with some amendments and the texture paper from my print examples. I had originally experimented with illustrations of the characters themselves blinking and moving/changing but when I came to deciding on my final outcome I realised what I really wanted to make was something that actually 'moved' and had life.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I also felt that my illustrative skill in terms of drawing the characters was lacking and thus decided to take a more abstract route - aka focusing on the hands and key element [the apple] - which surprisingly has gone fairly well considering hands are the bane of my illustration career.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I'm very keen to do a few more like this - to cover the other two frames, but since each panel is drawn individually it's a very lengthy process so I'm lucky enough to actually have managed to finish this one in time for the hand in!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">During my earlier giff experiments I found flash frustrating to use as it was difficult to line panels up and modify the document settings, this could have simply been down to my lack of knowledge with the programe regardless I decided to try out photoshop's animation tools.</span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;">I got the grasp through much trail and error and have definitely found myself preferring it to flash. The timeline system and layers make it much easier to line things up - it also saves the time of transferring the images between the two programes as I generally put my imagery together through photoshop to begin with.</span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47;">In terms of the animation I decided to take a very old school approach and started out by filming myself rotating the apple and going through several different poses. I then manually saved the frames and split them into blocks.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I picked my favourite out of the ones gathered and enlarged the frames. I picked a sequence that rotated the apple within the hand and then further polished the skin as this produced some interesting hand movements. I removed the colour and added contrast to the frames to create the series of reference imagery used to compile the animation.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">Once I was happy with how it looked and had gained a basic understanding of the programe I added my boarder design and a background and slotted the animation frames inbetween them. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I created a practise piece that used the lineart with overlaid colour effects, once this was finished I took the original lineart frames and painted them using watercolour and wax effect. These were then rescanned in and processed. I then replaced the frames and worked with the timing and positioning to get my finished product. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">For the amount of work involved the animation itself is disappointingly short but I have become more accustomed with the working method now and could probably achieve a must faster result. It does make me appreciate full length animated films a whole lot more though! I'd love to do more with this method and will possibly aim to have some others by the time my exhibition swings round.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; text-indent: 21.3pt;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">For my Final Major project I
decided to look at Villains, Disney ones in particular due to the fact that
Disney has always been a large part of my inspiration pool. Growing up with
Disney stories and animation I’ve become very accustomed to their characters
and settings. I’ve noticed recently that Disney have been remarketing their
villains, making them look more glamorous and appealing to the younger audience
in the forms of dolls, makeup bags and dairy covers. It gave the outlook of a
side we’d not previously encountered, or thought possible, as their roles in
standard storytelling was simply to cause friction and mayhem to the main
characters, become the willing matron of our dislikes. I had also been playing
with the idea of working more classical, with influences of art nouveau and
print. I decided that by following a similar suit to that of Disney I would aim
to make a selection of the villains more desirable, taking aspects from their
stories and lifestyles that we know of to make attractive imagery simply to
appear appealing to the beholder and little much else. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; text-indent: 21.3pt;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">My initial plan was to work with
4 key villains but I dropped this to three so more care and attention could be
given to the work. I selected Maleficent, The Evil Queen and Ursula as they
were classic villains that I can still recall as strongly now as from my early
childhood. Each also was accompanied by interesting imagery and a strong story
which fed my illustrations. I ended up designing three ornate frames
representing each villain. I chose frames because of their simple use of framing;
their purpose is to highlight a feature or individual. We don’t generally frame
something of little value or considered as rubbish, it is more often than not
something considered beautiful to behold or of high worth. They also can
represent the outside of a mirror, which is strongly hinted in the
illustrations used for the Evil Queen’s variant. The mirror is a sign of vanity
and beauty, it can also reveal and individuals true self which in my case was
to reveal the worth behind these villains, in a more attractive light. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; text-indent: 21.3pt;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I combined the frames using hand
drawn elements and Photoshop, these went on to being produced as screen prints
and were further printed onto different papers and canvas bags with a mixture
of inks. This was somewhat new to me as I’ve often avoided screen-printing when
it comes to producing work, the process was especially long due to the finer
detail in each frame, which meant only one print could be made before the
screen had to be rinsed and reprepped. I also experimented with animation effects, I
had a hand at making a gif using flash but found the process frustrating to
work with, when it came to my final animation I worked in photoshop and was pleasantly
surprised with how much easy it was – at times. I took the frame of the Evil
Queen as I feel this is my strongest design currently and focused on the
poisoned apple. The fact that it is simply a hand and apple gave it a more
abstract feel, the frame can be viewed as an eye point or perspective, as if
the viewer were the Queen as she inspects her murder weapon. It is also a known
fact that the hands of a person can tell a lot about them, in terms of how
clean they are, how well they take care of their appearance, their youth and so
forth. They can be considered as a beauty point and thus I illustrated them to
have long manicured nails and ensured the gestures used within were exaggerated
and theatrical to portray the Queen’s love of limelight and vanity. I am relatively
pleased with how the animation came out, although I am disappointed at how
short it is. The process was quite long as each frame was hand drawn, painted
and scanned in but I’ve become accustomed to it now and thus should speed
things up. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center; text-indent: 21.3pt;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">By the time the exhibition comes
round I would like to have produced some more in terms of the animation,
possibly two others to cover Ursula and Maleficent. I would also like to produce a few more
screenprints, I have three patterns designed for each villain aswell as a much
larger final piece that combines all three frames to give it more of an
impression. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I've spent the last week screen printing my soul away, I picked the method back up after so long of not setting a foot anywhere near the print room and have produced a series of prints and bags. There have been several failures one consisting of a screen photocopying larger than intended and thus messing up the print - but all in all I've had a productive week. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">If time allowed it I'd have liked to have designed a few more prints to be put on screen so it's possible I will continue to do so after the deadline during the run up to my exhibition to further buff out my work mass. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">Despite not intending to produce bag prints I have become fond of how they appear against the canvas material and have since planned to create another smaller animation switching between all the different versions of each print if time allows. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I enjoy the randomisation of each print, while I'm sure it's meant to appear perfect I do find myself liking the ones that sort of 'failed' due to not enough ink or a smudge/misline here and there. I gives it the printed impression which I find my digital work lacks. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">For a couple of weeks prior I have been communicating with an agent via email and last Friday I managed to meet up with them over coffee to discuss my potential career with them hosting me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I had previously forwarded this blog to them alongside my photography links as they also specialise in photography printing. Regretfully my personal website is still in the works so I was unable to link it through but luckily my blog contained enough information for them to grasp my style and way of working. I took my portfolio to the meeting and a separate folder on my ipad with my photography prints and talked them through the pieces including the methods and information behind each image. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">They took interest in my cover image and mini calender examples and talked about starting a commission based service involving taking elements and requests from the buyers and then drawing up their images in a similar style. The calender series was composed using 4 elements from an individual - favourite animal, colour, accessory and favourite fruit, we discussed how this could be adapted to suit a family in a series of small portraits or one long one. The same idea for my cover image but just taking random objects instead of a set of questions. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">We discussed the time each piece would require and I found myself considering things I'd previously not thought of, I worked out time allowances and methods which was beneficial as I realise these are very important things in terms of freelancing. I feel much better about my future in terms of becoming an illustrator knowing that these are things I can do, and with an agent helping me I'll find it much easier to branch outwards. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">It was also put forward the fact that they preferred to feature work in exhibitions which is great to hear as this gives the chance for people to see the work in person as opposed to seeing a shrunken jpeg on a random website. It feels more active and will allow more face to face chances in terms of acquiring work. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">Needless to say I'm looking forward to my future chances of work now! =]</span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I had a go at animating some of the sketches using really basic transitions and effects. I haven't really been formally taught how to animate yet so the majority is guess work using flash.</span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I made the black and white effect in flash itself purely for test purposes any final product would incorporate it's own textured and hand worked image. I think the gist of the idea works here but the timings need work, some slides in my mind still need speeding up more so which is something I would require help with. I'd also like to add more animation to the first frames other than eye movement - which was also done in a very basic copy and paste form for this example. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I've managed to churn out two finished boarder designers for my current and final project of the year. I'm part way through my third - I intend to stop at four and begin the process of adding in the content and experimenting with my animation techniques. If time allows I will be able to return to the boarder stage and make a few more but otherwise I think four is a good number.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I also intend to do some sample pieces that show the villains in their 'natural habitats' when they're not fulfilling the bad guy role. </span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">This was like nothing I've done before - facepaints - wefting lacefront wigs - resin casting.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">All round more focus on makeup and add ons than the actual costume itself!</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">It was actually really exciting to work on and I've come away from it a lot more knowledgeable especially in terms of wig construction which I can hopefully apply confidently in my future costumes. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I had the task of making Wilykat for the February convention. I bought a lot of my base materials - such as the base lace wig in advance due to needing to be shipped over from the US. I ended up having about a month to work on the actual costume. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">But the wig was the real part that I kept putting off - my only experience with wigs was that of buying, cutting and styling them. I attempted to dye a wig once - and it ended badly</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"> I have personally never ventured into dicing and slicing wefts so I started searching for tutorials - which there is no shortage of - however none of them covered what it was I actually needed to do to replicate Wilykat's unique hairstyle.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">So in the end I took the basic gist and made it up as I went along.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I recorded my method and made my own tutorial as I was instructing another member of our group on how to do his wig and the two characters had very similar hair styles. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I made a functioning bag to begin with but even when padded out with cardboard it looked flimsy and unlike the reference so I found some blocks of polystrene and sawed them into measured blocks which were then covered with the material pattern and a lot of hotglue. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">The 'boot' covers or leg warmers ended up taking all night, I wanted to match the reference again and his are rather baggy almost padded. So I used a base of foam and built around it. The orbs for the belts were the only part of the costume that actually failed. We originally made some moulds out of clay which were then use to cast resin in. I had a lot of incidents with the resin and ended up casting about 7 gems but due to complications the moulds didn't survive and thus I ended up using a papermache top I found in hobby craft which I sprayed with red paint and painted the bases silver.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I made two as I was responsible for another member of my group's orb since the characters had the same design - in return she made both tails - this ensured we matched. </span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">We trimmed the wigs and styled them on the morning of the event to ensure they were fresh. It took several hours to paint ourselves up - we used a mixture called PAX or prosaide which is a professional based catalyst you mix with acrylic paint that when dry gives it a sort of chewing gum texture. You have to then coat yourself in talc powder to smooth the paint out. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">It then does not come off.</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">There is a remover fluid that you can use to aid you in scrubbing - but you do have to scrub the top layer of skin off to remove it. On the other hand it means no smudges on the day.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">We used snazaroo and sealed it with hairspray for our faces as pax is a no go in that region. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I also have ideas to create shadow [blacked outlines] versions, using just iconic imagery [aka a spindle] within the character boarder or a piece of text with alternative life/interest and hobbies of the villain. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">Last friday I attended a life drawing session in Manchester at the 3 Minute Theatre with Dr Sketchy. It was very close packed, a literal full house and very exciting to be at - there were 3 models, Cat woman, Poison Ivy and The Joker. It was really beneficial for my work as my FMP is based around villains. The atmosphere was great as was the entire session - they used tracks of music to time each pose and experimented with lighting and props throughout. As usual I started out slow but managed to get the hang of sketching the further in I got, however due to the lack of space I found myself unable to experiment media wise - maybe next time!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">A mini update!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I'm not sure I posted or showed an example of this when I initially shared my business card designs - but there are two different images that when placed together create the full image =]</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I've been advised to rework the text and colour so I'll be looking at modifying it very soon.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I've also been working on my final project - which is based around villains. I'll be attending a Gotham villains drawing session tomorrow so I'm hoping to take lots of inspiration from it.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">The point of the project is to show the other side of the characters we love to hate, to show them in a more positive life - or behind the scenes.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I felt like drawing a pretty boarder piece today that I may or may not use at some point..</span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">As a form of break from our final projects Lord Whitney came into the studio with a mini brief that involved taking one of the nonsense rhymes originally written by Edward Lear and illustrating it. We were given full freedom in terms of media, size and level of completion. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I chose the rhyme</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">'An old person of Skye'</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #741b47;">I treated the brief like a real brief and completed it in a day so it's definitely rushed therefore it has sections that could be reworked and such. If I used more time I'd have liked to incorporated more imagery to suggest the flow of music into the actual image as opposed to just featuring in the boarder. Overall though I'm pleased with the final image. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">It was a good try out for my boarder technique as this is a style I'd like to use in my final project work. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">The images were drawn using a pencil and outlined in fine liner and then scanned in. I also decided on the months for each image as unfortunately the people who I selected had similar birthday months and in other cases didn't distribute the colours well through out the calender. So I layed them out and decided on an order that worked best. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">In between the rush of prepping my work I was able to spend some more time on my Disney Zine by adding some more sketches. It's still a work in progress but I'd rather take my time with it as opposed to rushing the final product - #which is fine as it isn't the final piece for the brief. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I believe the answer to this question is as vast and wide as the question itself. The answer will be a personal viewpoint of the individual asked - and there is no right nor wrong answer.</span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;">The ironic thing is most people outside of the industry don't have much of an idea of what illustration is. I generally get asked what I'm studying at uni by customers at my job - and 99% of those who have asked have pulled a face of puzzlement upon hearing me say illustration. </span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: #741b47;">"Is that like ... them book pictures?" - Said the other 1%</span></blockquote>
<span style="color: #741b47;">Illustration for me is many things. As suggested by Michael Salu in his article in Varoom Magazine [2012] "<i>As our visual language evolves, the playing field is levelling. Graphic designs, sculptors, painters, creative developers and even musicians amorphously meander across different parts of our creative industries.</i>" Illustration is many things, consists of many parts and is practised by many individuals. You don't have to <u>be</u> an illustrator by trade or job title to do an illustration, in the same way that drawing is not the only form of illustration - it is a net that stretches outwards and covers many creative outlets. </span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47;">It can be used to send a message, make a point, communicate words, look pretty, be random, satisfy an urge, entertain, sadden and surprise people. It can be done through music, fonts, acting, film, photography, drawing, painting, hand movements, shadows, light.</span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47;">I believe illustration to be an act of creative outlet - with many segments. There is the obvious act of 'illustrating' - portraying something to the audience, through storybook writing, events, diaries through imagery. There is also personal illustration - when an artist will be conveying a point of their own, making a statement - or just illustrating because it takes their fancy - taking inspiration from something around them and putting it to paper, wood, film etc. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #741b47;">Interestingly the term 'illustration' originates from the 14 century and was used to convey 'a shining', 'a manifestation' and 'a spiritual illumination'. The word itself is taken from the Latin word 'illustrationem' which meant 'vivid representation'. Its meaning has slowly adapted and changed over time, and by the 1580's 'illustration' meant a mental sense of an 'act of making clear in the mind' - by 1816 it meant 'an illustrative picture'. Thus it is clear that now in this day and age once again the meaning behind the word 'illustration' has changed once more and adapted to cover a vast scope of creative outlets. </span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47;">My own work originally started out traditionally, pencil, crayons and paints, yet over time I've practised with 3D elements, collage, photography and digital and tablet work. I've briefly touched on animation, which is something I'd like to take further and am really pleased to find out we will be doing so after the critical journals are done and dusted. Like the term - my 'illustration' has adapted and now covers a vast scope of techniques and styles yet remains the definition of 'illustration'. </span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47;">I think a name change for illustration is unnecessary. Unlike many things 'illustration' has managed to adapt and modernise, this is a feat in itself and should remain as so. From it's original standing in the 14 century it has evolved and still stands strong in 2012. </span><br />

<span style="color: #741b47;">We're coming to the end of a live brief with a music design company in Manchester - ironically named 'Music'. We're working to create an instillation that will cover their 'fishtank' two rooms made of glass within their office. The design must be based around a piece of music - but without obvious puns, music scores etc.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">It must also make creative use of the two way glass and it's surroundings.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #741b47;">I returned to photoshop and found the design much simpler to work with.

I do prefer this though. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #741b47;">I had an informal meeting with my tutors yesterday in regards to the progress of our portfolios, I took thier advice and made adjustments to the layout and overall look before sending it off for its first review.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: #741b47;">I was fortunate to get Thomas and Christopher of FaBi Books and Artworks, whom I had previously interviewed earlier this summer, to look it over for me. Thomas's interview on my blog can be found<u> <a href="http://emiillustration.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/contact-with-industry-thomas-james.html">here</a></u></span><span style="color: #4c1130;"> </span></span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><span style="font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">"We both thought it was great - don't think you need to change anything, Chris thought it had a great urban design feel, very current and that you showed great how create your designs in a way they can be used in a few ways - me, I just thought it was great.. loved the designs and loved the layout thought it had a great flow.. there wasn't a single piece I thought - meh - I loved each one.</span>So unfortunately we where useless to you as we loved it - Chris's only thing he would change he said would be possibly re-sizing some of the pieces he felt some where a little lost to the white on the page and felt they could have been showed larger.. but I kinda liked that who exhibit feel the pictures framed on the white page gave so I think it is a personal choice..<br />Really fab Emi you should be very very proud of it - your work is fantastic If you need anything else just let us know and thanks for letting us have a peek at your work it was very awesome"</span></blockquote>
<br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><span style="font-size: small;">Taking their thoughts on the layout regarding white space I have been considering what feel I'd prefer to give the work. Advice from my tutors was to separate two images that showed the design for a T-shirt and tote bag alongside a set of photographs showing them in this format - this was picked up on during this review in the first line. Thus I think the amendments were successful by giving them space to exhibit. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span><span style="color: #741b47;"><span style="font-size: small;">I also changed the format for some images giving it an overall portrait layout which I believe has helped in the 'flow' mentioned above in Thomas's comments.

<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47; font-size: x-large;">Hopes</span><span style="color: #741b47;"> I hope to create work I'm pleased with, to produce a successful portfolio and receive good feedback from it. I hope to be proud of my work, get it in print, and see others enjoying it also. I'd like to improve my confidence in regards to talking and meeting clients - presenting my work and selling my skills to employers. I'd like to establish my standing within the community with a good website, identity and professionalism, and naturally I'd hope to receive a fair amount of commission work over the next couple of years to continue this and progress further. I also hope to achieve, explore, develop and maintain my own personal style to give my work the consistency clients request. I'm finding this more successful by the use of my critical journal. Lastly to have a standing that enables me to have enough say in the work created, to do the work I enjoy - be granted a freedom with my work.</span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47; font-size: x-large;">Fears </span><span style="color: #741b47;">like most people my biggest fear is not being good enough, sinking into a sea of an over subscribed job role and not being able to project my work or self. Having to give it all up and work in an office somewhere. Comparison - when I try to see my work against other people's, I fear that I'm not good enough and find it difficult to picture my work being used for anything professional. I see people far more talented than myself without work, working in a different department entirely. Presentations and meeting clients are still a part of this pathway that scares me. I fear when accepting a job - not being able to complete it - either due to time or in the standard they want, not being able to satisfy the client. I'm afraid of the uncertainty of my future as I will be relying on finding work. I fear illustration becoming too serious, stale and over worked for me due to complying with certain clients wishes or dull briefs. </span><br />
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #741b47; font-size: x-large;">Opportunities </span><span style="color: #741b47;">To share my work with others, receive feedback and help. To participate in live briefs - to gain experience and a better understanding of timescale and requests. To see the work of people around me and be inspired and encouraged to continue to push my own further. To debate and seek opinions and thoughts of my peers when needed. To explore my style and apply different techniques and produce a portfolio with a range of work to suit clients needs and preferences. Becoming accustomed with exhibitions, and reaching out within the community to make an impression. To be given a freedom in my briefs to explore and satisfy my illustrative interest. </span><br />

<span style="color: #741b47;">In preparation for creating my own illustrative website to showcase my work I did some research into other websites created by and for illustrators within the market. There were a range of different approaches and themes but one thing that stands out is the use of their own imagery and fronts within the format. Obviously this is a key point for an illustrator - to allow the website itself to act as it's own portfolio and not just a blank wall to display their own on.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">There was a distinct preference for minimal content and colour on all those I came across. This allows the work to take centre stage as intended. The most successful ones were easy to navigate, colourful and fun to view. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I am fond of this format - that shows a limited amount of links at the side while allowing a large example of work to be viewed in the centre. It is simple and easy to work while effective.</span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I especially liked Liz Clements website for it's use of handwritten text and profile image. The colour scheme within her work works beautifully together as a bonus. This allows her website to neglect a background or any boxes and frames. </span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">I also found a number of websites that had their own 'cover' page, that required the user to enter into the website. I think this gave the page a nice professional look and allowed the user to confirm they were in the correct place, and gently ease them into the website.</span></div>

<span style="color: #741b47;">From this I have gained many ideas and much inspiration into how I would like my final website to appear. I have also been given a better understanding of appropriate content, links and information. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">. A page or bio about the illustrator - their qualifications/ past experiences/ their CV</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">*Although this is generally kept to a minimum to avoid a wall of text.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">. Contact - email, telephone, addresses or forms for filling out when requesting work and likewise.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">Most importantly a link to the artist's blog also - allowing people to keep up to date with his or her's going ons in life. Current interests and styles. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">. Links - links to other websites the illustrator displays their work - other means of following them, adding to their exposure. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">. Gallery - obviously pages to exhibit the illustrators work, generally split into consumerism [commission work] and their personal. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">. Shop - for illustrators who create and sell work, prints, crafts. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;">I have started work on my website, and while it still needs a lot of work it's slowly getting there!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"> I have also been contemplating wether or not to have an illustration tag name rather than my own. Currently I'm looking into using my initials 'ELM' for a possible identity. </span></div>
