Hello,
I’ve spoken with Jason who is taking over the organising of the mock interviews due to Emma’s absence, and he’s informed me that on Thursday 17th he will be able to give us further details with regards to scheduled times, dates and location for students from each course of the Design department. Be sure to prepare for the interviews and bring with you examples of your work, as a show reel, a sketchbook, etc.
Furthermore, for Design For Media students, the date scheduled to present your pitch is Monday 21st April, in order to show your work in progress for your Final Major Project and give other students and your tutors a chance to give you feedback before you begin working methodically on the project to get it finished.
As a reminder, I just want to tell you that the Final Major Project is an Open Brief, in other words as with the D&AD & YCN competitions, you can produce your own project and in effect your own brief. Let your creativity loose and produce anything you want, having seen your previous work, I can’t wait to see what will be your latest outcome!
Jason’s confirmed that the deadline is the last day of the week before he needs to mark everyone’s assignments before the end of summer term on 6th June.
One last request I’d like to make is if you can take some time to fill out the Student Survey, it’s located at http://www.thestudentsurvey.com - more info here http://glamlife.glam.ac.uk/news/1633/517/
Your voice and actions shape your world and affects those who are around you as well. If you are happy or unhappy about something on the course, apart from speaking with me and your tutors, the Student Survey is a good way to express your thoughts and it will give the University a better understanding to improve the course for everyone.
To recap, the dates relevant are as follows:
All students:
Thursday 17th April – Mock Interviews further information
Friday 6th June – University’s end of Summer Term / Academic Year
Design For Media Students:
Monday 21st April – Final Major Project Pitch Presentation
Friday 23rd May – Final Major Project Deadline
