Personal Development Plan - September 2015

1. Think back to last year - consider the whole academic year; Your confidence, your attitude to learning, the work itself? 
* I feel that since last year my whole attitude has changed towards my learning, I feel I am more motivated to attend every lesson, and I am also challenging myself to go home and carry on learning, I prefer to come home and go through my lesson plans again and go over and research the work I didn't understand. I am also a lot more confident to ask for help when I'm struggling. Aside from this I have learnt to use my time well with my briefs. If I was to change anything from last year I would change my attitude to my lessons and my resources that are around university, and telling myself I could get my work done from my flat. 

2. Think about your learning progression, your personal and social development: What skills have you acquired? 
* I have gained many skills since coming back this term already, I have gained skills on After Effects and thinking outside the box, I feel bad on my tutors for the way I was last year with my attitude however this term with their guidance I've come away and learnt more skills with camera equipment and through Adobe. 

3. Be Self Critical; What have you learnt about yourself? 
* If I am going to be completely honest I really struggle with After Effects and need to get some extra guidance on this, which I have been too nervous to ask for help with until now, and I keep putting it off because I have been so anxious about asking for help, which was silly as I am now behind on how trained I am on After Effects.

4. At the start of the second year; what concerns you?
* The only thing that is concerning me as I have gone into second year is sorting through my Placement Year and getting prepared for it, however I am trying to keep up to date on all my coursework before I think about Placement Year. 


5. What excites you? 
* The new adobe classes make me so excited I am booked on to do a masterclass on Monday 19th October 2015 with the Adobe team which happens from your own computer. In this week's class I am learning Live Drawing on Adobe Illustrator with Brian Kekoa Yap. 

6. What steps are in place to achieve your aims? 
* Brilliant tutors, family, friends and a mentor to help me juggle my work load.
