Finally Final

The lessig thing was supposed to be this video i made on the side called xtranormal.com basically i watched lessig, he said a lot of interesting things which i didn't necessarily agree with or disagree with but if what he says is true it being a less and less read only worlds then our job as designers becomes more and more important

As a reflection. This year especially these past couple weeks i have been working my ass off. In the end i think it has paid off and i can finally say i feel confident in the next couple years as a designer. There is a lot of work ahead of me but i know i can do it.  I am definitely proud of the exhibit work i did i think that is what proved it to me and i hope to you guys too.  Andrea said something to me while i was working on my spread to make my text columns on my second page just columns instead of notches to "make it easier on me." This wasn't offended but i didn't want to take the easy way out i wanted to solve the type problem in my original concept and prove that i could do it.  I know i have to work a little bit harder to keep up but i hope that by continuing to challenge myself in design. (in the packaging problem making it on such a big scale, in our exhibit choosing someone off the list, in the type animation picking something that was already a song, i feel i only half succeeded at solving this but i have figured out a way i could have done it better) Trying to find a balance between work and school and life in general, trying to stay sane. Discovering how i work best and my process seeming to make everything as difficult as possible is something i am trying to work on not doing anymore.  Gaining confidence and enjoying getting closer and closer to the people in my class are all things i am looking forward too. Goals i have are trying to make more progress in between classes and using my peers as more of a resource i learned how valuable this is during my poster making (cat, chris and michael, thanks guys) and wished i had learned this earlier Thank you Andrea for staying encouraging and helping my work on weaknesses while helping me improve my strengths.
