During the first semester of my second year I stayed in my comfort zone and produced a fashion garment as a final outcome to the Gender Games project as it is the area I feel most comfortable in and is my strongest asset in my opinion. When looking at the options for briefs in the second semester I was heavily interested with the M&S brief studying the 'Pause' trend as it appealed to me the most with its modernity and simplicity. However I decided I wanted to push myself outside my comfort zone in order to create a more varied collection of work, showing that I can do more than just one style of work.
Now I am coming to the end of my second year I think I can successfully say that I have completed and applied my short term and medium term goals from last year to my work. Them being:
- To successfully complete my first year
- Understand the course requirements for the future
- Expand my knowledge and skills
- Keep an open mind on new experiences and projects
- Develop and expand knowledge and skills
- Challenge my learning abilities
My short term objectives for this year:
- Continue successfully developing and understanding my own style of work, expanding my knowledge and skills with an open mind to new techniques
- Stay motivated in my work
- Find the balance between my degree, my job and social life
My medium term objectives for this year:
- Begin to develop a brand for myself using social media, using my blog, instagram andtumblr to advertise and showcase my work
- Search for work placements and opportunities that I can use to my advantage in terms of my work and career
My long term objects remain almost the same as the previous year:
- Completion of my degree with the highest possible grade I can achieve
- Successfully achieve a name for myself in the fashion industry
- Explore future career options i.e. teacher training or business courses
