PPP3: Creative CV

Over the past week or so I've been working on the design for my CV. I've included things such as 'Creative Fields' and 'Exhibitions' as felt that these were important things to mention. I want potential employers to know the areas of creativity I am knowledgable in as this will give them immediate opportunity to know whether I'll be suitable for a role. Additionally, I have included a short list of my exhibitions as I am painfully aware I lack any real experience within a creative job role, so wanted to emphasis that I have experience working within the real world.

Here is my CV;





















Although there are minor alterations to be made to it I feel, for the most part my CV will be received well, with all relevant information on it.

PPP3: Matthew The Horse - Make It Then Tell Everybody

Yesterday I listened to another Make It Then Tell Everybody podcast by Dan Berry, this time featuring Matt. Even though we've known Matt for almost three years now, I still find his work visually pleasing to look at and I find that his generally good mood really does encapsulate what illustration should be - fun and enjoyable.

PPP3: Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck

Recently I watched a documentary called Montage of Heck, an insightful piece on the life of Kurt Cobain. Early into the documentary, with little documented videos of Cobain, the visuals consisted of a variety of animations such as the one below:

However my favourite animation style was in highly detailed segments such as these;


Unfortunately, these animations aren't readily available on the internet for evidencing.

The documentary was fantastic and worth checking out, if only to see how he is portrayed as putting his art before monetary desires.
