Visual Language Resubmission

Visual Language was probably the most difficult module this year, for me at least. I have trouble keeping up with my sketchbooks and its something I definitely need to work on. That being said, my drawing skills this year have greatly improved due to Visual Language pressing me to put out more work in my sketchbook. I still have to work on blogging as well. What I have decided is that i'm going to keep all of my blogposts as drafts so i'm able to edit them over the course of the module, that way when I post them they're exactly the way I want and need them to look like.
The first assignment for the module wasn't incredibly hard. I just had to come up with sufficient ideas to draw things of. It wasn't until the second brief where things started to get difficult.The backgrounds assignment was probably the one studio brief i struggled most with this entire year. I started out strong but then I took a trip back to America for my birthday and It was difficult for me to change gears. I ended up procrastinating it up until the final few weeks of the module. I didn't even know about the animated sound project until two days before it was due, so I put that off until I wasn't juggling so many things around. I wasn't here for the turnaround studio brief as well so I had to stay up one night and do a turnaround of a stuffed animal on my bed at 1 in the morning.
After all that was done I still had to blog about all of what I did, and by then it was 3 days before the module ended. So I put out as many blogposts as I could, working right up until the end of the module, and only turning in half of a final review blogpost. Overall I felt pretty bad about what I turned in and I felt like I could have planned my projects better. I was glad I got done with all of my physical projects though, I tend to put my actual work at a higher regard than my blogging, but I need to be able to explain myself through the blogposts so I should put more work into them.
After all the modules were done I felt that I probably improved the most with the Visual Language Module. Even though it was incredibly difficult for me to finish, I still ended up finishing all of the physical work for it. I figured out how to properly spread out my work to create a much less stressful work calendar, and I was able to put out work at a rate I've never seen before. The life lessons I learned in this module are some that i'm going to keep using, hopefully into the next year of university if all goes right. I feel like if I made these mistakes in a later part of my life I wouldn't have learned from them nearly as much as I am right now.
