There hasn’t been much posting in a while, but finally after two weeks, much frustration and a broken Wacom pen it’s finally done. I’ve completed my site and now it’s live, please take a few moments to have a quick browse. email me if there’s any bugs or general errors which need fixing.
There’s not alot there. But this is just the beginning of more to come.

The second year of University ended earlier this week. And I know it’s typical to say this, but the two years I’ve spent here has managed to go so fast; I haven’t really had the chance to catch a breath of it.
So it’s now summer for me for the next sixteen weeks, and I hope there’s things I can do to keep myself occupied. So far I have a music video to help develop, an After Effects challenge against another student, a fantastically boring dissertation to write and a placement to get! So far my favourites to work for are BEARFIGHT studio and Empire Design.
That then brings me to the third year. The third year is going to be massive. I hope I push myself harder than ever before to get the grade I want next semester. Let alone the work to interest clients. The current third years End of Year Show was pretty darn impressive, I want to match their potential.

August 11th; I’m going to Budapest in Hungary for the Sziget festival. I have the tickets and flights booked. Also, I’ve done posted my Channel Identity on Vimeo. I’m more pleased with this than my last video. But I’m sick of the word ‘channel’ and ‘identity’ both in the same sentance.

I managed to hand in my screen based submission on Tuesday. Not massively happy with it, but I’ll redo the majority of it later. It should keep the assessors occupied for the time being. Also, it’s finally begun. With the help from a friend, I’m finally taking up playing the guitar. Hopefully I’ll get good after planning on playing for all these years.

Morning all. I’ve done and achieved a few things today. I can now walk without the aid of crutches. Yes, my plaster cast was removed and replaced with a scotch cast, which allows me to apply weight onto (don’t ask how I got a cast) so I can (kinda) move about freely without hoping over from place to place. But also more importantly; everything that’s to do with coding and website handling is complete. Again, I’ve gone through another phase of coding my blogs CSS and it’s now completely finalised. I hated my previous blog appearance and refused to blog because of it. So hopefully, more blog posts coming!
But also, I have a web portfolio on the go. A few students in my course are beginning to do the same, so why not follow the trend?

RIght! Here’s a little snippet of my mock-up for the crit. I’m not really sure why I’m posting just for this, it only took a day to design and make, but I’m slightly proud that I managed to get it done and dusted in time along with everything else.
Oh yeah, the project was for ISTD (International Society of Typographic Designers), my brief was to promote an exhibition for a newly opened museum named ‘Type Factory’, specializing solely in Typographic design.

Just to let you know. It’s 3:00am and it’s the day of hand-in, and so far this has managed to keep me up so late:
Macbook Charger – Not working
Adobe Creative Suite – Not working
= Print outs – Not working
I find it strange, that the day before the hand-in all these problems occur simultaneously. I guess something out there doesn’t like me too much…

Just got the canvas for my dad through the post, just in time for Thursday. It’s his annoying dog (Buzz), who keeps barking at me every time I come through my dads front door.

I’ve just finished it, I thought I may as well redo my crappy Tart Card whilst I’m waiting to upload my better quality timelapse for my groups installation project.
Beware. Sporting 3D glasses may fuck your eyes up!
