After finishing pt 1, I looked back on ifs in my own way and thought about the future direction of various things related to myself.
-About my future life in London and my future-
I can think of this because Covid gives me more time to spend alone at home. When I think that my way of being a human being changes with time, it can be negative, but I am trying to make it time to think about various things and hobbies. It’s time to enjoy. And since I was 18 years old, I have been desperately seeking opportunities and something I can do without thinking too much about the future. And four years have passed. It’s been almost half a year since I came to London. What have you gained in the last 6 months? I don’t really feel it, but I feel something has changed. What I feel most is how I feel time. When working in Japan, I didn’t have time to think every day in a blink of an eye. In my case, that was also what I wanted to do in the future at that time. So, it wasn’t a pain at all. At that time, I was thinking of studying in London for a year and continuing that work in Japan. However, covid spread worldwide, and the need for the work I was doing became ambiguous within me. The job is to produce a fashion show. I worked as an assistant. I chose London because of the art direction and magazine. I wanted to make an image of fashion through a fashion show, so they are inextricably linked. After six months of living in London, I think I have gained some knowledge of image-making. After that, I would like to increase the technical aspects and connections. And I realized that I needed one more thing. It’s a lifestyle. It’s not perfect because I’m new to it, but it’s what I want to cherish most. Another reason I came to London is London’s music culture. I was expecting nightlife in London, but I feel that there is still a long way to go. In the future, I will express myself with lifestyle and creation as a person who aspires to fashion. I hope that everyday life will return to the world as soon as possible.
-pt1 reflection-
There are not some points to reflect on the final outcome created with pt1. However, there are many at the stage of the process. which are research and development.
-time management
-how to organize research
– How to connect physical and digital
As the tutor said, I will continue my physical research and gain experience so that I can compose it better and more concisely. Also, there are still some areas that are still lacking in making videos, so I will learn by watching various things.
When it comes to time management, this is my weakest field. In the end, I will do what I should do, but considering the time, I feel that I have been able to develop more, and various things will be improved. As I said earlier, it also has to do with lifestyle. I’m so weak in the morning, especially when it’s cold, so my main activity is night. However, from pt2, I want to be able to act from the morning. After that, I hate making detailed plans because I feel like I’m busy with time, so I think about the day’s quota every night before going to bed.
The second and third are related. In this era, digital is becoming more important, and I feel that we need to think more about how to show it physically and digitally. This is the way of thinking as a student in the media. And especially research. The ability to create a portfolio is important over the years. So I think it’s worth pursuing. So I will pay more attention to the research and show the development more than the one made with pt1.
thank you,
