End of my First Year at Uni......

I ember the day we were handed in the brief for the blog and when I looked at the hand in date, it felt like ages but time flew so fast and it is almost time for the blog assessment. At first I wasn't very keen about blogging and but now it seems like a routine thing I like to put everything I do for any of my projects in my blog. As I was looking at my work from the beginning of the year, I really felt that the work that I did in the beginning of the year, especially the GDF project was a lot immature than the work that I did later. The most challenging project for me was the group project that we did in the beginning of 2nd term as I had never done a proper group project before but it was a very enriching experience for me. When I started the course, I was a very isolated sort of person, and I working in a group would be the last thing I would do, but I am very glad that I have changed quite a bit now and I think I would rather work in a group than to work on my own as working in a group allows more creative freedom and you can take inspiration from the people you are working with. My worst performance in a project this year was in the Okido Project, although I really enjoyed being taught by Rachel and got some great ideas from her, but I felt like I didn't put much effort into the project and I could have done a lot better. The project that I am most enthusiastic about this year is the London book project. I rally liked the format of the project and learned a lot of new techniques from the workshops that I attended. I am really hoping to improve my overall performance in this project and hopefully get a good grade.

My main goal for that next year would be to improve my work by taking all the feedback that I got in the first year into consideration and trying to learn from my mistakes.

Map London in Type Extension

These are the step by step images of the map of London that I made for the map London in type workshop extension. Instead of mapping whole London I chose just Central London for my map.

Stencils and Metamorphosis Extension

These are the prints I made in response to the stencils and metamorphosis workshop, they start from the ones that I made in the workshop and then the ones that I made as an extension to the workshop.
