And I hit the ground running!

Yikes it's been a few busy days back. But rest assured I'm still ticking. No rest for me. D&AD finished and to be presented. Roses award done, and the YCN briefs have all been polished off.

Don't anyone ever say students don't do a lot of work. Not to mention I still have a large collection of work from my placements to sort through and put online. I'm thinking that will come in a later post. But still, I've got a little while to go before I can show you my WCN or D&AD work. The rules say I'm not allowed to post anything online...shucks. So you will have to wait a little while before you get to see all of my wonderful work for the Sonic the hedgehog brief. Shame.

But still, can I entice you with a shot of my CV/Folio booklet that is in the works?

Yes anyone who knows me will admit that I don't play to the ordinary rules of convention (Not all the time mind you, but when I get the best opportunity I'll give anything a go.)

This is the rough for a working cover for my CV/Folio, based around the golden age of comics. A mix of my own personal skills, with a rouges gallery (insert folio) of what I have done in the past till now.

This is an odd one because it could either be a winner or a sinker. Only time will tell. I would like to think that I am doing something unconventional and a little bit different. But who knows. You can all win them over with a free issue of "Incredible Graphic Adventures." Maybe it will be one of those little projects you always have on the side to grow and nurture as time goes by.  It's still far from being finished. I have to do a lot more before it becomes interesting. This is more a prototype. But I am enjoying it, and you know what they say, if your not enjoying it, your not in the right line of work.

Still it's a risk, and if it doesn't work. I can rebuild, go back to the drawing board and just start a new. I suppose the classic Word document CV can always wait in the wings if it all effs up.

Before I go, quick shout out to both ThreeBrand and the Gate for taking me on over the last month. It was great fun and I did pick up a few things. Mainly biscuits may work better than a CV....hmm...

Anyway, until next time folks. I will have the work sorted out from my work placements, damn there is just so much stuff from ThreeBrand to sort through, need to work out what goes where.

Laters.
