COP3: Final Evaluation

This project has brought me a lot of ups and downs throughout the past few months. As someone who has been struggling a lot with their mental health, it really took a strain on my health and motivation so I struggled with doing the work and trying to get it done on time. Overall though, it has been really rewarding seeing all my work done and finished and I feel a sense of achievement. I have learned a lot throughout the process of the project, and the study of semiotics has become something that I am really interested in. I also think that the project has helped my individual practice to grow, as my character designs have become more emotionally involved and more interesting to look at as I've been told before that my work is quite bland. So throughout the project, experimenting with the way I work has been really fun and I think without this COP project, my illustration practice would be a lot different. I am not going to lie and say that it has been easy for me as it has been quite a tough road to travel down but I am happy that I have completed it and feel a good sense of accomplishment. When it comes to the next projects I will be pursuing I will use the knowledge that I have learned from this project and apply it. I will try to practice better time management as this project hasn't been my best, and I will also try to push myself when it comes to my illustrative boundaries as I have been known as someone who goes easily back into my comfort zone and doesn't branch out much.
