Week 2: Developing ideas and CV

During yesterdays lecture, our group got together and began to discuss the ideas for the 'Exhibition' theme in more detail. Each member of our group made suggestions on how best to display our work which relates to our chosen theme.

The main suggestion was to have a 3 dimensional display made of glass shapes, containing our work. These glass panels are to be spaced apart from each other with lighting behind the work to best make it stand out. The spacing out of the glass sections is to give the optical effect of a 3D display when viewed from the sides and a 2D image when viewed from the front and back.

My contribution was the suggestion of having the glass sections being suspended from the ceiling of the Exhibition area. My suggestion was greatly supported when explaining our ideas to the lecturer.

However, after getting some rather unexpected feedback from our lecturer, we decided to change our idea to a single, large glass plane and utilise a Mosaic effect to display our work in a more confined space.

CV:

I had previously created a CV in College and over the last 3 years or so have been editing and updating it as I progressed through my life of higher education. However, after listening to Jo Bomans talk on how to lay out a CV and what's best to include in it, I found, when observing my own CV, that I had made a few of the critical errors which Jo had said to avoid.

So it is clear to me that I will need to edit my CV a Great deal in order to get it up to standard. Fortunately, I have kept the hand out Jo had provided 'Producing a Covering Letter', to assist in my editing of my CV.
