- Every studio differs; it is about finding my place within the industry
- Researching and contextual referencing is essential & needs to be from a diverse range of sources
- I'd ideally want to work within a small independent studio
- Invoice a client - potentially request half of the payment upfront & don't get ripped off
- Detail (in terms of design) is key.
List 5 (or more) things you would address differently than you did this Summer:
- Be more pro-active and prioritise my time more effectively
- To be more conceptual — I tend to stick with what I am most comfortable or familiar with
- Be more engaged with networking (online and offline)
- Ring design studios and devise a mailer as opposed to e-mailing studios
- Be more confident & communicate more
List 5 (or more) specific things you will address this Semester, that should be useful:
- Try and improve my pitching & presenting skills - to be confident about my ideas and in general
- Blog all the time and be consistent
- Not leave things (tasks) to the last minute - when given, do them straight away so its still fresh
- Go outside - to galleries, events, talks etc
- Take full advantage of everything that is available to me - utilise it!
List 5 (or more) things you feel we could address as a group?
- Approaching a live project - legalities, things we need to look out for
- Costing - what's fair? (To us and client)
- Copyrighting work
