Fig Taylor (theaoi.com)
Who on a side note looks very similar to British comedian Joe Brand.

This is not entirely relevant, but it struck me as rather comical, especially considering Fig Taylor had a delightful habit of telling funny stories and veering off into colourful French (in other words saying fuck and other such words). More than once during the talk I expected her to begin a comedy routine.

After Lunch we sat down as a small group to talk with Fig Taylor (it surprised me we were so few, as this was a once in a lifetime opportunity). Below is the range of Images I showed her:
my (at the time) current portfolio
1. A series of commisioned images for a website
2. DVD covers done for SMILE Entertaintment Aps.
3. Sequential Narrative Project (midway here)
4. Illustrations done in 2011
5. Poster done for our 2011 Christmas fundraiser
Fig Taylor's comments when she came to mine was, that the illustration style seemed very modern and that the images were to a high quality. However she did say that the portfolio was a bit too disorganized. For example she said that it was a bit pointless adding in the DVD covers, as they seemed out of place compared to the rest of the work. Overall it has been a good day, and given us the point that for our FMP everything that we put into our degree show needs to be relevant... more or less. But to definitely avoid throwing in random things for absolutely no reason.
