Some of the awesome stuff sumbitted for assessment!

Hi guys!

 Also today I have some awesome stuff from Lauren Matters! You saw in a post last week a photo of her working on an amazing wooden box where she was drawing the images by BURNING INTO THE WOOD! (I honestly cant get over how good she is at this, and how original the idea is!) So now I have some pictures of the finished box for you!

I've also got some more amazing stuff from Lauren for you. Some of her assessment work!

This is her Advertising Brief: Posh Fish!

And her Specialist Illustration: Calendar Brief "Kids Can Get Into A Real Pickle!"


Hope you enjoy the amazing work!

Assessment!!

So over the last week NMITs 2nd Year Illustration class has been working VERY hard to get all our work up to scratch for assessment this Friday! There's some amazing work popping up, and I think I speak for everyone when I say it's good fun, but gosh its TIRING!

We will be taking a break after that, a little over a month, and I expect there will be some awesome work going on then for when we get back!

So here's wishing everyone luck on their assessment, and lots of SLEEP TIME after!

Working in Class...

So for a start here's a little 'behind the scenes' of the class at work:

Lauren in 3D class painting her amazing illustrated box. That drawing you can see...she burnt that into the wood!!!!!

Leigh working (again in 3D class) on his Cheff-Salt/Pepper shaker and Daniel doodling in the background!

Flickie doing her usual thing of listening to music on youtube and working in her sketch book!


Hope you enjoyed you're first instalment of BEHIND THE SCENES!

Cupcakes were a success!!

Well well well...

Today was the big cupcake sale day and boy it went well. Probably had something to do with Con putting a message up on our intranet. We had people come from all over the campus to buy cupcakes. Some even wanted boxes full of them (probably to hand to other staff members).

We started our day at around 11am. Daniel, Flick and I met in the canteen and gathered our resources. Moved a few tables and set up. Amy, Leigh and a few other classmates showed up to give us their batch of cupcakes and help write signs and label what flavoured cupcakes we had. Before we had finished setting up we had sold 3 cupcakes. I guess they were just that good!

As lunch went on we got pretty busy and sold over half of our 4 tables worth full of cupcakes. By the end of lunch though things had calmed down quite a bit. It was at that stage Leigh and Amy started walking to and around all the buildings on campus selling the rest of the cupcakes. They sold out at least 3 times before we were left with ten. After that we pretty much gave the rest away. None of us wanted to take them back home.

The day was a complete success though having raised $475.20. A job well done I'd say.

I will be back shortly to post some photos from our busy busy day!
If I think of anything else to add I'll add that too.
Hope you're all doing well and are having a great day off!

-Lauren.
