The guest lecturer today presented a few of his pubished and work in progress pieces. His process of working was that of print making, his work striked me as very bold, but by the sounds of it also very expencive to keep reproducing!
Unlike some of the other lecturers, Michael was only out of education for a year or two... giving us more of an idea of what exactly to expect when we finish our degrees and go into the world of being a professional Illustrator. One thing that was very much the same as some advice we've been told, was that builing up the one style that we deem what we do best, and built on it as best as you can. to make a successful portfolio and to be known for what makes you, you.
Alongside to emailing / posting your work to art directors, he made a big point of making yourself known by networking at openings as much as you can.
