The Big Update Part 1: College Progress Report


Oh, hello!

I have indeed been a busy pickle.

Here is a graph that shows what I've been doing for the last month:


I've decided to cut into my sleep time to bring you this big 3 part blog post, because who needs sleep when you can coffee!


So let me show you what I've been up to at College. I have been doing lots of drawings! 



Zombies for a Campaign to get teenagers to live without mobile technology.
Quick messy drawings scanned into photohop.

These crazy characters are for an alternative comedy channel website!


Making a desktop background based on the word "soft".
I had major troubles with the scanner when making this, so it's not quite how I want it to look.

Learned how to make gifs! Woooooo! Gifs!
Here are my first ever slightly clunky gifs:


I've done a bunch of other stuff as well, but drawing is my favourite!


Now look, I know that these may not seem very swish or impressive, but I think for a baby graphic designer such as myself, it's not a bad effort. 

My portfolio will be far more impressive once I have finished the course obviously, I just thought you might want to see my progress! 

Also I completed a project over the weekend which is in fact VERY swish and impressive (if I do say so myself) but I am going to dedicate a whole blog post to that assignment. 


Did you know that this course is only 3 months long? I will be graduating in December! 
How crazy is that!? 

I am at school Monday to Friday, from 8am to 5pm & every minute my brain is being mashed full of crazy new informations. It's awesome. My head is completely exploding, but in a really good way. 

Stay tuned for the big update part 2: The Cartoons.

In between times + College update.

I have been at College for 1 week and 2 days and let me tell you, my brain has never had to work so hard in my entire life. It's FANTASTIC, but I am also FRANTIC! So much work, absolutely no time.

I'm waking up much, much earlier; however I'm still going to bed at midnight. 
Foolish Bekky. Real foolish.

I haven't been able to put together a flowing story for you, so here are some quick scribs that I've managed to do when I find a cheeky 5 minutes!
There's a bit of anxiety in there, I think it's just because of the major transition I'm going through. College is going really well,  I'm not too anxious about that...

Well, just a little bit.


I just want to do really well.

I wanna make you guys proud of me!



Home...work?
Mum look!
I'm doing "Homework"!
(This is a new thing for me)

1 week of college down. Here's a quick look at what I've been making!





Hair

Pirate!

I got really, really nervous on my first day of college. Really nervous...




I am currently working on a story about a thing that happened to me in a bar.

It's not easy being in a bar when you're not a drinker.

Here are the first 2 panels from my story:
