A few weeks ago, me and my class put on an exhibition displaying our work from the first semester of our first year, our book cover project! We held it at the ‘Edge of the Wedge’ here in Portsmouth, we also had live music from Just Lucy, Impossible Monsters and Hallen and stalls for people to sell their work. The night was great, I had lots of fun listening to the music, walking around and chatting whilst videoing and interviewing people for the documentation team.
We all did a lot in preparation for the exhibition night, with a select few of us split into different teams: Digital and Analogue image prep, promotion and documentation, which I was in!
The image team were responsible for organising all of the images that needed to be printed for the show, Promotion team needed to get the word out, online through the exhibition tumblr and instagram etc and the documentation team were responsible for taking pictures and videos on the night. I managed to get a lot of footage which I am still compiling into a video and will be uploaded soon!
Overall everyone did a great job, a special thank you to our tutors Matt and Louis for pulling us all together and helping us out. It really showed how much work goes into stuff like this and has definitely prepared us for similar things we will be doing in the future.
