After writing my creative report about my experience at CreativeRace studio and my time with Simon Thorpe, I was able to establish what aims I had for the future. This was important to include in the self reflection presentation, as it would show the journey I have been on over the last academic year and how my ambitions changed as a result. The presentation starts off by showing where I had began to experience freelance through summer 2017. It would then go on to show how the other modules provided opportunities to expand my practice and learn new skills.
To finish, the presentation would identify the strengths of my practice and how these would be applied to my career and the plans I have for the coming months. As Simon Thorpe had suggested to me, the best way to present to an audience is to take the viewers on a journey that intrigues them and lets them know who you are as a creative. By including my interests and how they are reflected in my creative output, the audience will then understand why I choose to follow the particular career path.
The first slide shows my interest in hiphop and rap music. These examples are my personal works of art in the form of album covers, displayed on my Instagram account.
The second slide shows my personal clothing brand that had been set up over the summer. This would take the viewer on the journey through my experience with wholesale printing and marketing through social media.
The third slide shows some of the contacts that I made when seeking advice on how to market my brand.
The fourth slide shows the different websites I had used to sell the clothing and the way in which I customised the style of the websites. These were then linked to social media accounts to make it easier for customers to find the products.
The next two slides explain how the first module of the year gave the opportunity to work with potential clients and how a brief is interpreted.
OUGD503, gave the opportunity to experience several briefs at once and working collaboratively with a partner on a professional brief.
The next slide shows how I had contacted Nathan Miller for feedback on the micro genre project and how his opinion influenced my project.
As a result of the previous slide, the next slide show how I was contacted by someone to create an album cover similar to the designs shown on my Instagram. This would be a good example of the freelance work I was doing.
This slide shows the final module and the way in which it was used to receive feedback from peers as well as feedback from Simon Thorpe during the interview.
It was also important to include the contacts I had made as a result of LinkedIn and the studio I had chosen to use for the creative report.
The final slide would summarise my time on the course, the experiences made during level 5 and the plans for the future. This includes the 2 weeks work experience with CreativeRace and networking with employees of the company.
