First Semester Reflections

     Quality of Work:
 
  I believe my quality of work was quite good in the first semester. I had quite a few compelling ideas such as my roller coaster exam idea or the pie smelling in the universal symbols project. I payed attention well to the assignments and took them further. Bringing up the universal symbols project again it had all sorts of this from the eye to the pie. Almost if not all my solutions were completely relevant. Like my solutions most to all my formats and resolutions were completely relevant. I completed most to all of my work on time, time was a fairly large issue I would like to fix. While the work may have been turned in on time it wasn't at the most efficient all the time. I went beyond my first idea on a lot of things because most first ideas can't work with the project.



      Effort:

    Depends on the project, while I like to challenge myself there are some projects where the easy route is almost always the option. I usually on projects just wing it, jump in and think of ideas. I do normally like to explore variations on my ideas. Not always sometimes a good challenge can be rewarding when completed successfully. I try to take some risks in my ideas, mostly design risks hopefully hoping they work out in the end. Yes I'm mostly pretty positive about feedback. I do have a positive attitude to my ideas and work.




      Participation:

     I'm always on time to class, I've never been late. I mostly use the time in the work block very wisely and use it to my advantage. I plan out working pretty independently quite often. I almost always stay on task and use my class time productively and wisely.




      Improvement:

      I as a digital artist have many different styles. I've done many different kinds of work and styles. Technically I could use a little bit of improvement. Some of my solutions in the future will most likely have more compelling solutions. I could use a bit more confidence in myself and in my work. Some of my concepts can definitely be a lot stronger and I will work on that.




      Adjustment:

     In semester 2 I do want to make some changes. First, I want to use time management a lot better. Also, I want to be a lot more creative in my work. Finally, I want to turn everything in on time and efficiently. My suggestion is to create a tattoo from photoshop.
