To conclude, I have thoroughly enjoyed this unit of work. It has pushed me to create beautiful pieces of art in different circumstances to normal units. Before we were always asked to create pieces of work that were relevant to the set of tutorials taught to us, or to learn to create work in a group. However, this term I have been pushed to learn a great deal more about my specialist area, including where it will be used in certain industries and what I will actually be creating. I'm also glad that I focused my dissertation on architectural modelling too because the research just went hand in hand and totally helped with the general stress that I normally get from university projects.
I'm glad that I had the opportunity to work with Architectural worker John O'Keffe because not only has he given me valid opinions of my work and taught me about what to expect in the industry but he has also taken me under his wing and given me an opportunity to feel what it is like to work for "a client", even though I was essentially volunteering. The outcome of the work that I created from this experience is also something that I can really say that I am proud of and that I created overall in a very short space of time (roughly 2-3 hours for the whole thing).
Because I created most of that stage piece early on in the first half of term, I felt that I really should create something that was slightly more challenging but also from a perspective outside of a building to show that I am capable of creating a variety of different three-dimensional environmental designs. I chose the Saviour of Blood Chapel and I felt that it met this criteria that I set myself. I also had to make sure that I was running on track with my schedule so that I could fit in another piece. I generally managed to keep on top of my schedule throughout the project but a couple of things slipped past me.
Overall I am quite happy with my outcomes from this unit and I can't wait to see what I am capable of bringing to a team next term.
