Today in class we had a competition to decide on the name for our website which will hold all of our Capturing Creativity class members’ short documentaries. We decided on ‘Exhibit A’ as it is simple. I was pretty set on ‘Art Swamp’, as was Louise, but alas – we were out numbered entirely. Our class spread into our two final groups to further discuss our aims for the social media or presentation tasks.
Initially Justin had these big plans for the presentation video, but he hasn’t been in class today and we haven’t been able to get in contact with him about it. I think all that the class really wants is to show snippets of their artist profiles at this stage, but if Justin chimes in any time soon then I’m willing to work with his ideas too. Right now I’m just sticking to the basics which everyone seems to be happy with.

Our final class was today, which seems bizarre. The year has gone so swiftly! Today was our final chance to team up with our group members for either presentation or social media. Justin was not in today’s class either so we figured we would continue to stick with the snippets of the artist profiles for the presentation video. As I am in the presentation group, I offered to help edit the video together as I’ve really gotten into a good routine of working in the edit suites and bettering my skills – so I feel I’ll be able to whip something up from the class’ work smoothly and efficiently. Many of the other group members are quite stressed about getting everything done. We all are really, but I feel like I can take the task on board as I am actually not too stressed at this point and I’ve been focusing a lot on having good time management with my work this semester. I feel like I have my work under control – let’s just hope that I don’t spend hours and hours nit-picking at my own artist profile and end up spending too much time on that, rather than dispersing my time and effort adequately into my other assessments I have at the moment as well.
The rest of the presentation group are going to focus on what will be said on the day. So they’ll be presenting and ending with the video which is made.
