Week 11:
Work, work, work

Wednesday:

Wednesday was hard. The lecture on colour theory was good and I enjoyed it. The way in which colours are said to be complimentary but actually contrast, confused me a little. I later learnt that they are said to be complimentary when they along the same line but on opposite ends of the colour wheel. That cleared that up then!?

The rest of Wednesday was spent working on the back to basics assignment. After speaking with Dianne I was able to carry on with my target audience as I’d confused myself with extra research. She suggested what I needed to do and I got on with it, while still incorporating the extra research. I worked flat out until about 4.30 and got a lot done.

Later, at about 5 I started to get a little distracted and started talking to Steve about my Designers Republic SA. He told me that the sissy image I had chosen as my vector image wasn’t technically vector but theoretically it was, or maybe it was the other way round?! I didn’t really understand properly but apparently it was created on a 3D wire frame which means it’s not vector. On the other hand it was put together with lines and circles which make it vector. Whatever it is, I hope I don’t have to rewrite my SA as I have a very long list of things to complete before the deadline, to put it mildly.

I left college just before 6 with another headache. I’d like to think it was from working so hard but I think it’s probably from when I nutted the roof last week, it really hurt.

Note to self: don’t crouch in small spaces!


Thursday:

I missed college on Thursday due to lack of sleep over a number of days. I’d seen the sun come up for about 5 days running and was absolutely whacked.
I was disappointed I missed the lecture because I know we were getting a new task but I would have been no good to anyone I was so tired. I have asked Rich to borrow his notes but will email Steve to ask if I can come in on Monday or Tuesday to go through what I missed.
Later in the day I synchronized my time plans and did some on the A3 assignment. So far I’m managing to balance all 4 assignments but its hard work and it takes some planning. I’ll keep you posted on how long I keep it up!
