Blog IV: Personal Development
Hello once again! In this blog, I will be discussing a few things that I would like to improve about myself.
As I mentioned in my earlier blog, my main weakness is getting distracted easily. To remedy this, I have started doing yoga in the morning which has helped me to focus on my work to an extent. Doing yoga in the morning has also brought a structure to my morning routine. Alongside yoga, I have managed to cut back on my phone time. I believe in the long run, these two changes will greatly help me to overcome my weakness.
Another area where I would like to improve is texturing/unwrapping UV. This is one of the areas in 3D modelling where I suffer. Since I was working in the graphic design industry, I didn’t have a chance to practise or learn more about 3D software. I combat this knowledge gap I have started watching YouTube videos that go in-depth with concepts like these. One of my favourite YouTuber’s to watch when it comes to guided tutorials is Mike Hermes. I find his tutorials very relaxing and easy to follow. I also follow various 3D artist accounts on Instagram that post reels showing tricks and shortcuts. I also plan on approaching my lecturers to learn in-depth about the subject.
My main focus is to be an efficient person overall. I am excited about all the future projects that I will be doing in this course. I am certain that the wide variety of projects and group activities available at SAE will help me be an artist of a high standard.
