Today I have a migraine.  And frankly, I am not surprised!!  I have far too much on…  Here is the lowdown:

UNI:

This month I have the following to submit:

1.  I have to amend and print my design award entries, as my tutor would like me to enter both of my attempts.  These are approximately 15 sheets of A3 each.

2.  Fab, Annie and I have to produce a video for a concept for our graphics room for the degree show and also a concept for our stand at D&AD London and a further concept for our show in Soho.  (If any of these concepts win, we also have to go ahead and make them!)

3.  I have an entire module where we are supposed to come up with an identity for ourselves and cerate something to mail out to companies, a web site, a CV and portfolio.  My tutor has suggested, that, since I won’t be applyign for jobs, I should brand my company instead and come up with a mailer to send to businesses pitching for work instead of ‘a job with a deisgn agency’ (if that makes sense?)  Good idea, but REALLY difficult.

4.  Annie and I met with a great designer yesterday in HA! HA! bar, to discuss one of our portfolio projects, which we need to finish by the end of the month.  We are branding Cheltenham!!  No small task.  So I need to do some photoshoots and LOADS of design work.

I then have one month to produce two portfolios and prepare for four shows.  Arrgggghhhh!!

FREELANCE:

I have two web sites to finish and two more to make from scratch, along with some print work and other bits of design.  I am also trying to plan out how my business is going to work (God is good, it is all coming together which is very exciting!)

HOUSE:

Bomb site.  Let’s not talk about it!

Needless to say, I am a little stressed.

    Hello Naomi,
    I recently listened to a good podcast about marketing and identity, connected with knowing your own identity… and I thought of it when reading point 3. Contact me through facebook if interested in details :)

    I would go for, “good looking and talented”, what else do you need in marketing and design? Perhaps cheap but not sure if you’re cheap :) xxx
