Overall I have really enjoyed this module; I feel that I have gained a lot of practical and professional experience by working a live project at the Great Western Arcade. I have had more responsibilities than if I had displayed on-site, as I am working for the Arcade as well as myself. It has given me a taste of what being a free-lance designer would be like as a career, which is something I am working towards after graduating.
I have achieved quite a lot through learning new processes, such as drawing and designing on Illustrator; and refining old techniques,such as paper cutting. These are skills which I will continue with into my professional career.
I will continue with this work after graduating, with the goal to sell some of my cuttings. I will also experiment further with my illustrations, cutting them out of different materials and using the illustrations themselves in different ways.
I have also gained valuable contacts through working with the Great Western Arcade, as the Marketing Advisor and Manager are interested in commissioning work with me in the near future.
