Presenting to the class...

So today was the day in which all groups did a short presentation to the class showing their final shots and describing the story behind them.
I have been comparing the class I am in now to that of the class I was in before- obviously as I skipped placement year I am now with completely different people, and the main thing I have noticed is how secretive everyone is about their work! This especially shone through in this brief. I personally am happy to share my ideas and work with whoever is willing to listen, after all it's always good to receive feedback.
I can't remember exactly what order we did our presentation but I do know we were either first or second. We got up and did our presentation and I felt it went really well. The styling was great, the location looked good in shots- and we had an eagle! Ruth noted us on the preciseness of our styling and said we had got some really good shots.
I admit, I don't think our shoot was necessarily the best (the team that did their shoot at the docks were breathtaking), but they certainly weren't the worst.
It's funny really, because all through second year I was a nervous wreck- never thinking my work was good enough. This year for some reason I just have a completely different attitude. I don't feel half as stressed, and I was actually praised by my team for how positive I had remained throughout the brief. This has given me real optimism for the year ahead; if I can carry on with this mind-set then I think the future is looking bright...
