Hellooo!!
I've had an email with regards to a work placement and they can offer a three week placement to me! Im going for my interview in London next week which is very exciting!! The placement is with a fashion photographer so im really pleased. I'm keen to work on the interests that developed on my photography elective. They have asked that i research into Capture 1 so i have spoken to IT at college and also the photography tutors for advice. Im going to research into the software further over the internet.
I also received an email back from a make up artist which i emailed a few weeks ago. She gave me some really useful advice so i really appreciate that. I definitely want to work on my portfolio so i can take it with me, im going to try ensure my images are selected and put together with a good layout, etc.
Speak soon

Hello Hello Hello!!
Sorry its been sooooo long - i have NOT stopped or sat down now for over a week (slight exaggeration, only slight though!!)
I'm having a few problems at home as our housemate has left us in abit of trouble with debts. etc so alittle stress at current.
But back to college...I've been working away on the Application of Design project and I have also had my Digital Photography elective this week. Although things at home being the way they are I feel rather happy with my progress and work on the elective, i'm sure i could have worked better in a different situation but but but...
Cat modelled for me on my elective work which was a HUGE help (top hat, mannequins dressed as squirrels and bright pink lippy added) and i also arranged for my housemates to come in on the final day and model. I found it rather hard to find inspiration in a rush so decided to purchase lots of random goodies; balloons, face paints, face masks, party poppers to add some colours and try 'go with the flow', which ended up with a circus / random theme!! I visited Borders to look through some photography books which gave me some inspiration.
On the day i had organised for my housemates to help there was a lighting problem in the studio. I'm happy with the pictures I managed to get but didnt get as many shots as i would have liked - my model had to leave (after waiting a good while for the lighting problem to be fixed), but from the pictures i did take hopefully with a touch of photoshop they should be good :)
With regards to my work placement Ive been offered a two week placement with Sugarscape in London, but they were only able to offer a placement for September 2009. Apart from that Ive chased two other applications, i'm hoping to look into work experience placements next week.
