Counting Down...

We're now into our second to last week of school and the final deadlines are looming on all of us here in the Interactive Multimedia program. Everybody seems to be handling the pressure fairly well over the past week or so. There's no time to cry; we're running with the wolves now!

For this Friday, I have two one-minute videos for the College to edit as well as my own demo reel. Tuesday is our Industry Portfolio Review day, and by the following Friday, the last day of class, we have to have our bookstore project, web & DVD portfolios, and term projects done.

I am currently putting all of my video clips for the College videos through image stabilization in iMovie which is going to take a couple of hours minimum to get through. Bad for me as it's eating into what little time I had set aside for this, good for you because it gives me a chance to blog! (Assuming, of course, anybody finds these blogs entertaining in any way).

The school project deadlines are not, surprisingly, making me too anxious -- it's the looking for work after school that's working me up. School is easy; life is hard. In the past, I've even given up on trying to find a job in my field and have picked up minimum-wage joe-jobs just so I could stop looking for a while and spare my ego further angst (besides, the bills always need paying and they don't care where the money comes from). This year, I'm determined not to do that again.

I WILL get my dream job THIS SUMMER!

So, if you or anybody you know is looking to employ a slightly used graphic designer/web programmer, please give me a shout. You and I will both be glad you did!
