Relevant - Teaching Assistant Experience and Brighton Develop Conference

On the 1st of May myself, and my coursemates Tim and Patrick acted as teaching assistants in the absence of Rob Naylor, the teacher for the lesson being run which was a general studies class on the use of ZBrush.

Despite apprehension as to our ability to help in this situation we all found it to be a very gratifying experience. I personally felt surprised by how much i remembered of the program, not having used it for roughly two months.

After a tentative start we sank into our roles and eventually decided it was best to combine our knowledge and attempt to solve problems together, this meant we had a greater chance of being able to successfully solve the issues we were presented with, whilst also learning something new from eachother.

I found the experience to be wholly enjoyable and offered a great boost to my self confidence, i would happily do it again.

Brighton Develop Conference

On top of this i felt it was worth noting that i have signed up as a volunteer for the Brighton Develop Conference after the opportunity was recently given to us. There's no guarantee that I will get a place as their are a limited number of spaces and the pool is not being limited to our college alone. I would be ecstatic if i landed a place as the BDC will no doubt offer excellent opportunities to learn as well as meet talented and well-known indivduals who already work in the industry.
