First Class

In our first Distribution Methods class we were told what the module was about and what we were going to be producing for assignments. This module is about getting our name and our work out there for the industry to see. We are going to be producing a showreel, a creative CV and a website/blog where we can put down everything about us that we would want future employers to see.

I am really looking forward to working on this module as I really like blogging and I think it will be so useful to create something for the assignments that we will then have as our actual portfolios when we graduate and start applying for jobs. I cant wait to start designing my portfolio website and start thinking about how I want to portray myself to people in the industry. Also having a ready made showreel will be really helpful as well.

In the next class we have to present the work we have done at uni so far, so that the tutors have an idea of our skills and also to help us get used to presenting and talking about our work. I'm not really looking forward to it because I'm the type of person that cares what people think and don't always have a massive amount of self confidence, but I've put together a presentation and hopefully it will go well.

I think this module will be one the most useful modules we have done over the last 3 years because what we produce actually applies to the real world and could help kick off our careers.
