Well this is all new to me..blogging that is. I have decided to do a blog instead of a notebook/diary as I can update this at any point. I will be posting thoughts and feelings on my experiences at college and how my work is going. I am hoping to put loads of interesting links up of design related topics, here comes the first one...
I am going to enter a monthly competition for the magazine Advanced Photoshop. There is a selection of 3 images to choose from and I have selected mine already and I am now coming up with some preliminary ideas how to develop it. I might post up some ideas in the next few days to show how I am getting on.
Why don't you have a go as well? Who knows one of us might get featured in the magazine!!

College on Tuesday 6th October 2009. We were given a lot of information from Patrick and it put my head in a spin ( I don't think I was the only one!!) Two projects to hand in by January plus a identity for myself for self promotion, no ideas yet but I will get my thinking cap on in the next week or two.
Having talked over what it is exactly I am aiming for I am a bit more at ease with what direction I will be heading in. I think I will be aiming for a more creative portfolio at the end of the course with some work which you would expect to get in a agency ie branding, logos, photo illustration etc. This makes sense I the reason I joined the course was to get the creative mind going again.
I have just looked at the 2009 D&AD Student awards for branding and as expected there is some stunning work.

I just hope I can get somewhere near in standard. I am looking forward to seeing what the briefs will be this year, something really meaty I hope!!!
Well thats it for my first ever blog. I look forward to blogging in the coming years and getting some responses from you.
Be good.
