Integrating Theory with Practice
Week 2, Principle 1 : Overcoming MindsetsThroughout the first semester of my course, visual communication, I have engaged in a wide variety of fields, using trial and error to see the subject to my strengths and weaknesses. However, during the process of this I have had the ability to overcome my own creative mind sets by embracing new techniques, methods and technologies.
As with anything, I found some areas more challenging than others, but despite this I have enjoyed coming out of comfort zone and experimenting with a wider range of creative methods than what I would have potentially ever considered using. From this it has encouraged my creative nature to be more expressive, and for my own natural reactions to be more daring to improve and explore the potential increase of quality in my work.
From the previous list that I had originally created for myself to use a reflective guide of how to improve aspects of my constricting mind set, I feel I have made significant improvement.
Within my RVJ I demonstrate different variations of the piece and analyse how effect they are with clear and thorough annotations, leaving in-depth incitement to my visual language I am displaying, communicating my ideas thoroughly before their development to show their progression.
Areas of my book which clearly demonstrate the variety of techniques and practices used, and the extent of variation used of some pieces due to their potential.
