Its a soccer riot through blackmail!
The cake was a lie!!
Ummm…yeah, anyways….
To be honest I did not want to go in. It was okay just a bit crowded everywhere.
but if i think about it, there were huge amounts of people. I hate people sometimes, i just want to blend into the crowd fluently and be unseen sometimes.
Everytime I enter the premises I just get in a pissed off mood as I feel restricted and disreguarded.
The quality of the work was okay overall.
I find it hard to deal with some personalities if I dont relate or find them interesting. I cannot stand to be in the same room as others if i have no connection. I feel so self centered sometimes but thats just the way it is!
Nevermind, Guitar Hero:World Tour looks sweet..
I have been thinking about whether or not I should post my final piece, but If I am honest I am not sure If I am proud of it. The quality is okay, but the development shown in the sketch book is what I feel is the most effective part.
But whatever, heres the final piece…
My omnium-gatherum
Overall I passed the course, Which is good but it also frustrates me as personally I feel I deserved more than just a pass. I believe that because I critisized the teaching methods of my tutors that they took that into consideration when marking my final piece.
My time in Camberwell is over, and I am pleased that it has ended. I am pretty certain I would not recommend anyone going to Camberwell unless-
-You want poor unorganised teaching
-You want continuous criticism that is absolutely non-constructive
-You want to be taught by teachers who secretly have no artistic qualifications.
-You want to pay for absolutely everything you need and don’t need, and you want to be supplied absolutely nothing by the college.
I am excited to start working at LCC, which as we all know is a shit hole similar to Camberwell, but the course seems good and inviting. We shall see.
Hello,
I havent been posting recently as my computer when BOOM and sadly died. I am currently on another computer updating you all on my situation. I have recieved a conditional offer from LCC, which is great but it is still daunting. I find it hard to believe that they would actually want me on there course, but this is because my self confidence is non-existent after this shit period! hopefully that will change.
So yes- computer dead-lcc yay(sort of). Also the final project has taken a hit because of my silly computer but I am still on track.
Oh, and one last thing. GTA4? Amazing. Simply Outstanding. In my opinion the best story a game has ever had (it reminded me of Pulp Fiction). I recommend anyone to play it who can stomach its violence…. I became addicted to it and completed it fully two days ago.
Time to get work done.
So, Ucas. What a piece of fucking dogshit! I cannot stand websites where I have to fill huge amounts of information out and that is way too overcomplicated!
But yeah I finally finished my Route B application, and the courses I am applying to are Graphic Design in Communication at LCC, Graphic Design at Chelsea and Illustration at Camberwell.
Am I confident? Fuck no! I haven’t seen any confidence with any piece of work that I have completed recently. This is mainly because of the abysmal support I have received from ‘Teachers’ or ‘Tutors’ at Camberwell. It has just been a joke, and honestly this whole course is a joke in my opinion. Maybe I should of stuck with Photography? Who knows. It has just been a complete let down all because of the ridiculous non-constructive feedback that I have received.
I went to a St Martins portfolio review for my second compact application last month. The building is very nice looking, the facilities are not great but its just seems a nice course.
My confidence is non-existent with this whole thing right now, mainly because of the poor feedback I have received and the endless shit spewing out everywhere. I have no idea what is next for me. Big Issue anyone?
Fuck it lets go play Forgotten hope. What a coincidence.
I got my results today and yep, I didn’t get in. :) ha! funny.
The reason? some lame-arse excuse questioning the originality of my work and my contextual awareness…. riiiiiiiight.
Well whatever bring on Thursday I guess, nothing like working on your portfolio the same day as your birthday. My luck!
Friday was my first portfolio review in my application for the BA Illustration course at Camberwell. It was a compact application, which basically means it is an early advantage to take a place on a university of the arts degree course before the route B applications begin. I found it a sickening, nerve racking experience, as I didn’t expect to have an interview, and I was told on the morning of it that there were going to be if they were uncertain of if they wanted you in or not. I was absolutely terrified during the wait and when the list went up I looked and… no Robbie on the list. Half the class had interviews, the others didn’t.
This means either they want you or not. To have an interview means they are not sure on something.
Do I think I will get in? Probably not. Maybe its because I have no confidence in myself, but I see the other students that surround me and at times I question the quality of my work. I will find out tomorrow so whatever happens does for a reason.
Recently I have been playing a lot of ‘AudioSurf’. If you haven’t checked it out, I advise you do. Basically it’s a mixture of Guitar Hero, Rez, and Wipeout. It really is an amazing experience to race your favourite music.
One last thing, I stumbled upon a video of one of my favourite games ever – Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style. Words cannot describe the awesome-ness of this Playstation one game.
You know when something is so bad its so good?? Yep.
I just wanted to share with you quickly a video of one of my biggest inspirations in art. His name is Stefan Marx and he is a mixed media artist, ranging from graphic design and illustration to photography. The piece he creates in this video really intrigues me, the interaction is so great in my opinion. Watch it!
