Major Wake Up Call

Posted by miles0282 at 7:14 AM

It's already Mid-March and still I have not accomplished anything from my lists of things to do!

I had a ym conversation with a friend and a fellow graphic artist. I asked her how was she. She said that she was still busy with work but well compensated. I said to her I on other had was the opposite to that. Then she said that its more important to have a high quality work and a good portfolio rather than work experience. She said to me that I should learn to adapt to mainstream kind of style in art, something a cross between what the client wants and is also aethestically beautiful.

That made me thinking. My portfolio is shit and work experience is also not much...where does this leave me?

I am probably way behind compared to my peers. My a number of my batchmates are already working abroad. People I know from my OJT are working at TV stations. My artists friends has developed their skills...I on the other hand is a 25 year unaccomplished graphic artist. hehehehe

Its kinda depressing but I'm not really sad or worried. Even though I don't earn that much, I don't make portfolio worthy work related task but still I am working on my personal art. It's not really much but still makes me happy.

Ewan ko ba bakit naging contented and happy ako lately....

BUT I must get out of this comfort zone. It's not good for my Career.

So I MUST do major revamping with everything.
First I will revamp my
1. deviantart
2. behance
3. coroflot
4. Multiply

I will do major updates on my
1. portfolio
2. resume

I am not saying I am applying to another company but I will prepare my stuff since I have plans of going to Singapore (basta anywhere but Davao) to work there.

I must also finish my
1. Project 25 (on its final few stages na)
2. start my art blog
3. Finish my flash portfolio so I can get my certificate at First Academy
................................................................................................................................

huhuhuhuhu ang dami ko pala dapat gawin huhuhuhu and I dont know where to start.
