Week 21 – Where you want to go? How do I get there?

I am just happy to be here to be taught from the best and to be taught in way were I am learning something new everyday. Iv always been quiet an ambitious person, and believe I can get through I this quiet smoothly. I know when I needed help with work I know I could turn to my lecturers and also my fellow course mates.

Ultimately I would love to go straight into a job in game industry, but to achieve I am going to have work extremely hard and produce work that can be call industry standard.

I am hoping to get a lot out of this course, I feel really committed to this as I am aware it’s the fifth best course in the whole of United Kingdom, but to keep it that way I believe teaching the students the necessary tools to get into the games industry is the main factor.

I must admit I came onto the course thinking that I would progress quiet smoothly, but then I was hit the reality that this course is no walk in park. In some cense I am glad its that way, cause the only way you can find out about yourself is through your mistakes, and I have made a lot of them on this course. I do believe giving me the time to develop my skills on the course I could become a great asset to university and to the games industry.

Getting to terms with 3d Max was something I found quiet a challenge, coming from an background of using Lightwave and become quiet sufficient in that software, it came as a culture shock to me to using 3d max, and also coming from a none artist background and a completely self taught artist, doing some of task were quiet a challenge. But these challenges will only just benefit me when it comes to the second, now I know what to improve on and what need to achieve in the coming years to become and game artist or a 3d modeller.
Ultimately the only way you can progress on this course is to keep yourself motivated and have an ambitious goal, that’s what keeps me going.
