Fusion 2008

Fusion 2008

My grad show, Fusion 08, is coming soon. Pretty worry about the outcome becos i'm not well prepared for the show.

Currently, i am 'packaging' myself to become both concept artist and storyboard artist. Its not difficult to 'sell' myself cos i believe here is where my strength lies(i'm only slightly less genius than da vinci)...but the difficult thing now is to gather around 15 good works to show how versatile, skillful and creative i am...for instance, some male and female character designs, some environment design(not my focus), some monster designs, some mecha designs and some illustration pieces. still not enough to impress the employers? then gotta show some animation i've done, and some sketchbooks...

cool, so i finally got to impress those employers, wats next? present them ya name card...with your personal info inside. wat info? ya full name, address(maybe), your mobile number and your personal website.

yes, personal website....not a website that stores ya daily entries or nude photos...lol...is a website that contains ya ART stuff...paintings, sketches, showreel bla bla bla....

oh, i hav 2 spend $$$$$$$ to buy my own domain. and when the employers contact me, i'll be serving NS and couldn't do any freelance work, becos the gov say 'no outside commitment during NS.' u don't follow, u get owned upside down....

all of the above has to be done pretty soon(4 wks? i hate to remember dates..)....and there comes my sarcastic "THANK YOU!".....the school has such "GREAT PLAN" for us! and btw, when doing all this, i still hav my assignments to finish, i "LOVE" the pressure and i "DON'T" think that i will screw my portforlio and website up.

with all the 'shit' i am facing right now, the only thing i look forward to now is Fusion 08.....LOL!
i hope that everything will work out fine :)

and for those who doesn't want to go the Fusion show...here r my thoughts:

1) sigh....maybe u don't want to work in this industry anymore.

2) if u think so, pls find some a decent 8 to 5 kind of job cos this job requires a 'growing' passion and a 'never say die' working attitude...which will be use for working long hours and staying overnight...LOL...Without passion and determination, u will 'die in this industry. similarly, u will 'die' in anywhere else...(i'm not toking abt excelling in the industry, i merely toking about survival.)

3) so maybe u want to work in this industry....but u jus refuse to go for the show. then u hav some prob which i dun wish to waste my time toking abt...and tats a very negative thing for me to say. (sorry) why not go? ask yourself....

4) other reasons? eh....i'll hug u and say, good luck bye bye.

why go? here's my answer:

1) to get feedback from the working professionals.
not jus on your works, observe how they look at you....u'll noe where u stand in this industry. don't be too serious if they somehow look down on you and your works...who says that start mus be good in order to continue the 'game'. there are hills to climb....over this hill, u may get to see a paradise right in front of you. staying at the same spot or choose to retreat? u noe what will happen....hmm...no no......nothing will happen.

2)honour yourself. come on, its time to show! 3 years of effort in this course. u don't want to have your own booth to showcase ya work? gosh, wat can i say.

3) the best way to say goodbye to this course. join the Fusion and then burn the sch together. alright, i getting too far. i like this sch lah...lol.

now, the biggest obstacle is to get my website done nicely. thinking of the website's name jus gonna kill me...cos i can't use xelex.net (someone's site..damn it!)........should i name it....leehouyeung.net? hahaha...NO!
and i noe nothing abt html, and i dun want to noe...*start crying*

namecard design? plain white card + black colour fonts = best design
i am environmentally friendly...dun wanna waste ink...jus go to the freaking website lah!
haha, i'm lieing to myself again. how can the sch allows this...

Fusion 08, bring it on man! *fighting mode-ON*
