5th April - 7th April 2011

Reflective Practice

As I have stated in previous journal entries, presenting case studies to the group is a nervous time, but I feel that since that last journal entry on this subject, I have improved greatly, I think this may be a result of reading 'Presentational Skills for Students' by J. Emden and L. Becker.



Exploring Specialist Pathways 1
Today was the second 'day brief' of which we focused on Juxtaposition. Initial I was slightly confused with the concept of Juxtapositioning, and I still feel confused with it now. I now understand the concept of it, placing two contrasting images together to make creative piece of artwork. But I don't see how placing to contrasting images together can work. I feel that in the future I need to read over this subject again and make myself clear with it.
