FINALLY

I have finally sent my book off to Blurb.com for it to be printed. I have ordered 2 copies, one to submit and one to keep for myself, with the extra shipping cost to get it back to be quickly I have spent a total of £137 on my book order. My book will be a Large Square 12x12, Hard Black Linen cover, with a Dust jacket and Black end sheets with 50 pages of Premium Lustre paper. I should have my book back to me by next Thursday at the latest. It is such a relief to finally have it out of my hands to have time to catch up on my reflective blog, get my evaluation underway and prepare for my portfolio construction submission, which I have to admit I have neglected while coming to the end of my FMP.

I have heard that somebody failed their Portfolio Construction unit last year for having low quality images in her portfolio, this had made me realise that since having my laptop stolen before Christmas I no longer have any high quality copies of any of my previous work and so I am going to need to do some more shoots to have enough images to submit and it is always better to have new work to show, also with all of my FMP shoots being character makeup I need a variety of other types of makeup to go in my portfolio so myself and Melissa Bush have decided to collaborate and do 6 shoots together next week. We will get together and plan each look and decide who will do the hair and who will do the makeup for each.
