Since my last post I have been very busy and so much has happened! I previously mentioned the two courses which I was starting in my second semester at UEM. However, in true UEM style just before we were suppose to start I received an email notifying me that the ‘Corporate Identity and Brand Development’ course I was accepted into is only taught in Spanish! Although I have been learning Spanish I am no where near a level where I would be able to successfully complete a university module taught solely in the language.
After another few weeks of hassle with UEM, I am now only enrolled in one module for my final semester. The course ‘Visual Creation and Development’ is divided into two so it feels like I am still completing two modules regardless. I have completed a few tasks for the course so far. One being to design a poster for an exhibition in Madrid:
After this, we then had a couple of group tasks. One was to create a stop motion animation which needed to include specific characters whom completed a journey. After thinking about what we could create we decided we wanted to create a piece of work which represented our Erasmus year in Madrid. Through this we printed Polaroid images all from our time on our Erasmus experience and created a stop motion animation showing the journey we had through the streets of Madrid.
Most recently, we have been making a ‘Scanimation’ which has been tedious to say the least. Although, I thought that the marketing modules would be helpful it turns out so far I haven’t learn anything relevant! Below is my ’Scanimation’ in progress and after watching you’ll understand me calling it tedious:
During the first couple of months of my second semester I went home to photograph a golf event at Sunningdale Golf Club. Every year they put on an event known as ‘The Foursomes’ which this year I photographed. Although I didn’t want to go home for so long I knew I needed to as it was such a good opportunity and as it is an annual event if it went well I knew I would be able to photograph it every year. Below are some of my images which I captured throughout the week:
I’m now back in Madrid but soon off to Thailand! My time in Madrid feels like its coming to an end so I am trying to make the most of it before leaving in June and having to be ready for final year in Coventry.
