getting used to the digital space and uploading work. sometimes it feels too stressful as every lesson has its own task and the dead line is too short.
What activities and techniques have you used in sessions to support the development of your work? Please talk about what you have learnt about these techniques and how they may be useful for you in the future.
What is your role in the overall project? Tell me what your responsibilities are as part of this role. I believe i am supposed to search and gather information about the Branford Police Museum and help do make over of my model who is playing a young girl Bretha, character from the Victorian time, who’s spirit has been believed be still around the cells of the museum.
How well are you working on your role? I am practicing different looks. but as my model is confused of what look she wants to go for or what she wants to wear, therefore I can not practice any look and feel lost if what I will create on the assessment day.
How well are you working as a whole company team? over all everyone is getting along really well. its good atmosphere.
