So, today is the day l turn in my images/pdf for my graduate review. Wish me luck. Lord knows I will need it. I am so nervous about this. I started off with one project in mind, but had to make So me major changes to it over the past week and a half, which included reshooting the entire project. My artist statement stayed the same, with a few word edits, but over the past week and a half I started from scratch on the images and took our 750 new images to boil them down to the selected 12 or so. Now, they are all edited, put in the right place sequence wise and I feel that I finally have a shot at passing this review on the first. My only hold beck is a teacher that I have who constantly tells me that y work is not at the graduate program and that I should not be there, even though I was already accepted by the program almost a year ago. I just hope I can prove her wrong and pass this thing.
Another issue is that there is a class I am taking that is supposed to go hand in hand with the rare, an I submitted this new portfolio for the class to give me their feed back on on Sunday, and NO ONE has said any thing about my new collection. That makes me nervous. Not getting any peer review prior to the submission. It is not like I have not tried to get some, it is just that no one has offered any. So I feel like I a going into this thing completely blind. And that is the scary part. Not knowing how anyone feels about to collection out side of one or two close friends who had seen the almost final collection, but I feel maybe bias because they are close to me. So, with three we he is her n before the due date deadline, I here really no choice but to submit the portfolio and hope for the best on Friday when I have my Skype face to face meeting with them about it.
