N0T3 T0 S3LF

Now that COP is over I need to re-evaluate where I am in terms of STUDIO PRACTICE and PPP

Things I've noticed so far and what I need to do next!
A lot of my briefs have been short, quick turnaround briefs. This semester I want to do more varied briefs, still doing short ones but also looking at ones that would be 'more substantial'.

I think I need to look at some more substantial competition briefs, perhaps a book cover? Or using the format of a pre-existing competition brief but using a different book or something like that. 

Research: 
as I have been doing a lot of quick briefs I have not taken enough time to research things, I need to do some thorough researching and such. 

I can easily add more research to my monster girls project, for example - mermaids, as different kinds of sea creatures, etc etc. I aim to look into more artists who inspire me and different methods and processes. 

Back On Track with one-a-week:
my one-a-week monster girls project has fallen behind and I need to get back on it!

I hope I can learn to organise my time better now I'm not trying to juggle a 9000 word dissertation alongside these modules as well. 


BIG BRIEF IDEAS
I'm not sure I have any fully formed ideas but I like the idea of doing some makeup 'branding' (packaging design, advertising, etc?). 

Last year in responsive when I did the 'break new ground in beauty branding' I really enjoyed learning about pattern and packaging - I would like to learn more about this.
Plus I have a love of drag queens and makeup in general so doing something related to this has interested me for a while. I think I'll have to do some testing of ideas to see how I could make this work.
