The plan for today was to book a session with Jim to get the final image printed out but with my eldest brother going into hospital the day before, when the time came to book a session in SISO it was fully booked out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I got into the basement and wasn’t the first for a change. I didn’t get home from Watford until 3am so was feeling a bit knackered this morning. I sat at the tall tables and finished off the journal\/blog post about Coventry visit last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Looking at next week I need to also prepare a review so will look into that while I am here also. Gavin is in today too so will try and catch him for a chat about the project and what happens next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
After a search on the web for the prices to print my large image. I was looking at an A0 image and checked a couple of websites. The cost of a print alone was \u00a3202 at Loxley, \u00a3240 on SAAL Digital. Jim was at his office in the afternoon so I visited and found that his price was \u00a365 for a Matt White Paper with an Unglazed Frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After paying my fee to Jim I headed back to the basement for a chat with Gavin about current state of project, and the review for next week. He said that as I’m not displaying in the degree show I don’t necessarily need to complete the form and prep work for display, but it woul dbe good to see an update of the work I’ve selected. Gavin is happy that I have enough work for now for the Shirehall projects as I “live and breathe it” at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m posting out two images per day onto Instagram from my 2048 longest edge exported files. I’m having some engagement at the moment and I hope that it continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
After this it was time to write up a few notes and then jumped into the car for the journey home where I sat and then tidied up my notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I await to see how my print comes out and will revisit Jim in week 9 after I have presented at the review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Coming up this weekend is the Photography Show and then a trip to Leeds for the Photo North Fest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
