This module has helped me with a lot of different ideas and concepts over the course of the year. It helped me figure out what my weaknesses and strengths are, as well as how I work within groups. At the start of the year I had little or no idea about how to brand myself. All I had was a logo and a banner for my artists pen name. Over the course of the year however, I figured out how to start a brand for myself, and now I have an ident for my animations as well as my own logo and business card. Even though these might be very roughly laid out I still have them. Over the course of the summer I plan to update them and get them to be a bit more personalised and artistic.
I also made several websites as well. I started a personal twitter account because my teachers told me to, but now I'm thinking I might set up another just for my brand. I also started a vimeo account and uploaded all of my animations there. I had to upload one animation there anyway, since It was required for me to do that for a responsive brief. So I figured I might as well upload my other animations there as well. I also made a tumblr account for my animations as well and I haven't done anything with that yet, but I'm planning to upload my animations there over the course of the next few weeks. I made a Facebook page for my animations and embedded all of them onto there. Then i invited a bulk group of my friends list to like that page. I hope to update it periodically over the course of the summer, but I'm still not sure what I should put on there. Lastly I made a Linkedin account and invited a few people on there. I put in all of my information like my school info and other things. I also linked with my brother who is a front end programmer and a few other people. I think that next I'm going to make an Instagram account, but I really don't enjoy Instagram. Im probably just going to make it for my brand and update it with some concept work or something.
I feel like in terms of blogging I didn't keep up very well. I managed to put PPP in the back of my brain until the ending weeks of school because I had more pressing modules to get finished with. However I did manage to get all of my work done a day early which I'm proud of. I also never managed to get to go to a Convention or Showing for this module, but I'm hoping to get to go to one later this month and network there as well as see a few friends as well. I'll be updating my business card before then so I can give out one thats unique and designed well.
Overall I feel I've done well this module in terms of what I got done. I hope that next year I'll have the same amount of success.
