Tell me your sign...

No, this is not the assignment we're supposed to be doing in class but seeing as we're supposed to be reading them most closely now, I'll try to incorporate more of my Capstone into this.

So yeah.....what is your Chinese Zodiac sign ya'll?

Three page views....

No, it should be the 'forever alone' jpg but I'm too much of a flake to upload it.

Hopefully I will spruce this place up....

Hey, its my first post for my class! Its been a while since I've posted on Blogger since most of my time has been dedicated to deviantART and Tumblr....but since I have to get the ball rolling for my Capstone, I might as well start now.

The question is: What is a Capstone?

My answer is: A huge sandwich of samples of your creativity to show off that you have what it takes to make it within the field of your choice, all sliced neat and ready to serve to anyone who is willing to take a bite.

Or something like that.

Even though a lot of people view Capstones as something that they HAVE to do in order to graduate, I think there is something more to it, an element that actually makes the entire project fun. I mean, even though this is a project, we're given full control over what we want to create and show off not only our skills but what we want to do to make a mark in the world.

Again, something like that.

For the most part, the Capstones I have seen always make we worried whether or not I can stack up to what has been done before, even if the Capstones that I loved had absolutely NOTHING to do with the goals I’m trying to reach. Talk about being touched by outside influences.

As for the reason why there is so much time required to work on these project, it just comes down to basic common sense; for a lot of people, more times means more time to refine what they’re working on, whether it be a comic story, drawing talent, ect. The more time spent on project sometimes, the better it turns out….but then again, that doesn’t hold true for EVERYONE. Some people might not require that much time to work on their Capstones and some people might not be able to complete them even with a 2 month time-span. Nonetheless, I think the extra time actually helps students, especially those who are unsure what direction they want to take with their work. Those two months serve as a bit of reassurance methinks.

At least I think so considering that I feel panicked already and I might need as much help as I can get.

Yeah…

Urgh, more to come later. 8I
