Creative Futures 7Posted on March 4, 2013 byjingyangluo

      This is a memorable day, this is my first time to listen this kind of lecture.
      Glyndwr University's creative industries director Stuart Cunningham, described at the importance of this speech at the beginning, and why they are so important, the students will leave the school into the society. Stuart discussed the importance of being employed is how to make your own, you may be looking forward to your future as an artist or designer. I found him a very strong factual conversation, I learn every day,but I never find the main importantance,  re now on, I will think more about the future plans. He also spoke on other key points, such as setting yourself out to vote in person, not just only a skill, because in a recession, many companies pay more attention to who is the Almighty.
      Sarah Mair Gates secondly, introduce her work experience, and their company's situation.
      Paul Haywood is the art world well-known of the man, with a caring mind, often involved in philanthropy. His international influence greatly. He was successful in obtaining funding from the EU and Asia, many funds.
      In the Professor Paul Haywood’s speaking classroom, I sat in front, of my future plans, face of such fierce competition in the society, to be honest my eyesight is very limited. I had to development a small program in my mind, I changed the original mind. My whole way of thinking to enhance a highly,  I can learn anything from it, and more importantly, how do I get more people to use my stuff.
      I found it interesting how he did the best use, people do their power to help the community in times of despair, rather than simply selling a product, he  enhance quality in people's needs, improve people's quality of life . How do we sell our skills? What areas need such skills? How to apply his invention in life. This is definitely a point worth considering.
      Robert Ball added partner in 2000, and in 2009 became creative director.He spoke passion, is a genius copywriter, he is also an excellent illustrator and spend most of his spare time drawing.
      His inspiration and fun, rely mainly on his idea to push him from the gallery to start, and put it on the streets of London to the public enjoy! I admire his practical ability, but with his creativity, brilliant creative thinking strategies.
      Yasia was published deputy artistic director in the "Octopus". My impression is that she is full of enthusiasm for working with people, I'm interested in life within the publishing industry. I feel somewhat inspired by the Yasia elaborate about her struggle, how she started, such as through a variety of channels to market herself. She is not only well known for illustration industry, and her unusual ideas.
      Yasia brought some of her recently published books. Its cover, I found very interesting, there are a few books windows actually cut some illustrations, but when you open the lid, a small part of the illustration is an example. But did not preach, unique idea, it is very compelling, so book covers the key is to attract readers' interest.

             photographic career deveopment

                 Adam's lecture benefited me, he is not only an experienced photographer is also a philanthropist involved in many charitable causes. His story told me 'we must have a dream to fly.' People in this life, no matter what you do, who you are, successful or not depend on what they have dreams and aspirations. The magical of dream come from people continue to struggle quest,nothing is  wonderful than dream. 

       People rely on dreams alive. If a person without a dream is like a bird broken wings; Human life is "insatiable"'s life, a dream come true, will produce a new dream, dream constantly stacked like firewood for the winter, a pile pile stacked in the corridor of life, life is cold add warm fire. Until that day, you are inability to use ripped through the eyes gazed end of the corridor, faced with this pile pile piles of dreams, perhaps, showing a happy smile; perhaps, is helpless regret; perhaps, only indifferent eyes. Adam Lee's success is that he does not give up, to find opportunity, the courage to try.
       "Bird's dream is the sky, the fish's dream is the sea ," What is your dream, I often ask myself. In fact, these wonderful metaphor, Just imaginary man himself is a product of the brain that Dream Theater. Perhaps the brain is really a wonderful tremendous Cube ，Gently random one turn, they will turn out all kinds of whimsy.In the brain, this soft fertile soil, filled with thoughts of leaf mold, dreams, like those many colorful mushrooms, an endless stream coming out, drilled hope soil; dream is that miraculous fireflies children, light dancing, the night sky lit dream. Adam lee's speech changed me but also improved me， everything perseverance, Insist everything, no matter what kind of job do its best to do fine, opportunities often come when you inadvertently . 

       Although, sometimes the dream is very hazy, very misty, but it gives us strength so that we took the wind whistling, carrying never fall glory, struggling to penetrate the fate of the many obstacles set up, fly toward to the vast beautiful long days.Just has dream in heart, life has become more wonderful. As Adam lee said: The level of being engaged with different companies, unpaid or paid, the more you will be working and you will get more pay in the end.
       What is your dream? what kind of person do you want to be? Man with a dream will have more have more opportunities than no dream people.
       If you have a dream just like Adam lee to achieve your dreams , good hope waving to you! If you do not dream, think about it, have a dream, you will find life has more meaningful.
       Regardless of whether a dream come true, in the realization of the dream in the process, as long as work hard, and do not care about the result, as Adam lee says: enjoy the process,people who live in the process, life will full of sunshine, more interesting ......

     to imagine,to creative, to learn

Albert Einstein once said: "Imagination is more important than knowledge, knowledge is limited, but imagination can encompass the whole world." All human inventions are from the imagination began. I am very pleased to be able to listen to Yann Seznec’s lecture about ‘To imagine, to create, to learn!’ Lectures. I marvel at Yann Seznec that superior imagination. His story makes me a better insight into the meaning of creation is the first productivity. According to my understanding, I think this is what Chinese people are missing, the person's IQ are the same. But where is our creativity and imagination , I often baffled.
     

    We look at the nation's hard-working kind, hard-working tradition, I found that these were the virtues of our heritage of the millennium in front of the rapid development of Westerners seem so feeble, we suddenly found that people's creativity and imagination is so important, we were surprised to see people novel of construction and invention, we followed others "design", "invention" of others already has .

    In recent years, Chinese people began to wake up and find that people more is needed imagination except learn.People might because the learning level of ability, knowledge gaps and there are certain heights, But the differences between people is how many imagination they have. Yann Seznec's success comes from his good thinking and innovation. Through his use of sound and music, he sees everything, and through motion control music like the idea. He invented a software Wii Remote Wii loop machine. He did not stop working, through the use of Wii products, he found many shortcomings, continuous improvement. Invented something more advanced. In China, 'cultivate innovative talents, to carry out innovative education, improve the comprehensive quality ’of the other shouting slogans in full swing, reform everyday, Advocated to learning Western education. However, we found that the existing Chinese educational system and a variety of system, all sense of innovation are just empty talk, can only be used as some specimens on display in the museum hall.

 

    Since childhood, we were trapped in a small space, this problem was caused by the more population situation in china, but we also thought to be tied in a small place inside, living in parents, in closely circle with surrounds society, no one has, no one want, who did not dare, who can not achieve a breakthrough. If our class, the students sitting on the table, above the teacher, the following students playing yo-yo, or frolicking, or wander in and out, then whether teachers, principals, or parents, or even all of the students are unable to tolerate . But this is the Western most schools learn the facts of their school discipline, if China's measure, called "How a random Zile"!

 

 But west people is powerful. Because west people’s thinking without sealed, without the constraints of many rules,. Many children has been develop a habit dare to dare from an early age. If you have any ideas , it is necessary to express it, show it, or go to confirmation, or exclude. Curiosity, fantasy, imagination, creativity. Every child‘s magical things can not suppress that can be exhibit with it real face. Yann Seznec was able to invent those products, depend on his extensive understanding of social contact with nature. If he stayed at home all day, that invention will not appeared in his mind without any reason. China's children every day to learn a lot of rules, is abandoning the most valuable of the imagination, is progressing according to stand in line, learning a variety of conventional, to develop a mindset, not look circle as the sun, not  imagination them as a warrior which can fly, not show their views when faced with adults .

I really hope that one day we can be bound without confinement, freedom and describe our feelings.

   getting a job in the media

           I am very pleased to be able to listen to Phil Hirst's who works for a corporate video production company and is a 'media mongrel., I see today's scene was very cordial, lectures scene a few years ago seemed vivid, life is not the return of the tickets, experienced things will not be repeated. Now, I am very fortunate to be able to listen again to master lectures. Thank you very much Glyndwr University, so I have such an opportunity to contect with famous people in the media. 'talk with the famous people better than reading ten books', The most regrettable thing in life was no teacher to help. On how to be a successful media person, I still do not dare to conclusions. But change a view, which was enabled me to go on, so my argument is how to do a good media person.

         Because on my own terms, I think the success of this concept is now the standard is too diversified, unlike many years ago, everyone on the success of a successful media person, as if judgment is very simple, and now I feel that I have confusion, doubt, what everyone's mind, a successful media person, what kind of media people a success, a success it can make money, you certainly say it is not. When the editor it may be considered a success, you might hesitate. Or that we do not become a good name for a reporter to determine answer. I think in terms of being, we can do an answer, but a good media person, relatively speaking, this concept is relatively easy to grasp. Then I will talk about Phil Hirst's views on this issue.
       Phil provide some good advice when it comes to applying for a media based job:
1.The CV is the opportunity to market and sell yourself.
2.Be determined and ask for feedback.
3.Show enthusiasm, you have to know about the organisation and do your research.
4. Show knowledge about what you want to do.
5.The competition will be fierce, be ahead of the game!
        Yes, the media is not the same person with the businessman, businessmen to make money, literary persons are more complex, a lot of people want fame Integrated Programme, If you want to be a media person, but also want to do a line with their ideals, how to do? In my opinion, not very sophisticated as well, officials "give rice" ，less to better,don‘t go is the best, go there must be income, after all, eat other people's mouth is short, take other people's hand is soft. I think this is a fundamental principle.
         Second don't afraid of loneliness,  Phil Hirst say that the media is important that the work experience rather than higher education. Because the media it is not a purely commercial organization, and our entire media industry average salary is not too high, if you can not stand such a lonely business era, you have to write a variety of popular books, or even open your own company to do something else,  I think this occupation as early as possible you can leave it.
         The third point is not greedy for money, we can see that there are a lot of good reporters, if you care, then you find that a lot of reporters who are greedy for money, a generation name in mind, as a prisoner, the names we do not have to say. On a media is concerned, it must be an independent body representing the social conscience, if people are to the media through this platform to make a purely commercial thing, this is not the media. In fact, think of it very complicated, but it looks very simple. If we say that we such a time, be a good media person, I think some of the specific path and ways you can make your own to comprehend, as Phil Hirst said to sell yourself, work hard, pay attention to opportunities. Let yourself be able to close a successful or a good media's role, I think there are some paths, how to do?
        In fact, very simple, like a martial arts master, do you have any cheats, the result is no stroke stroke victory, as
        1.we need to study Media Studies - Divided opinion in the industry about the value of such course.
        2.Strong. Interest by media employers in a specialist subject knowledge eg science, languages, economics, politics or engineering. Stronger commitment and passion for the area shown by non media students with relevant practical experience is a great way to start
        3.Technical knowledge - Software, cameras, computers infrastructure
        4.I want to add is to be a media person should not blindly, this is very difficult. How can we not blind, I have been on their own request, I have been in accordance with the meaning of these words do.
        I would say, respect for truth, return to common sense, inclusive humanity, reverence for life, the moral act. This is not so simple to understand words, the literal meaning is easy to understand, but if it is to be placed in our real life to measure, it is more difficult, especially as we are now in a commercial society, in a high rate foam, so that everyone is under tremendous economic pressure, while facing temptations of wealth era, to stick to their career aspirations, income is not high in an industry, try our best to do everything.

        marketing yourself
       March 5th morning I heard Denise Chilton talks about running his own, and I feel great sympathy.let me understand that world of dimness, this world competition, tells us: Only operate their own, have a foothold in the community does not fall in the seats.Now I talk about my views.

          

                I am me, unique in the world.
           Believe ourself is not arrogant self-appreciation, it is full of confidence scream; than blindly without According to self-affirmation, but firmly believe in themselves. Everyone's body will have countless stars twinkling stars, while shaping the personality self is that you can tap their potential energy will be burned into a self gigantic sun. Potential energy is your innate advantages.
     Denise Chilton's lecture tell me that we do not need to  pander to numerous beautiful and fertile beauty, do not follow the crowd in between muddy quagmire, to be a competent captain, upload your own driving by countless glittering cruise bravely sail fills the dawn of the Orient. Know yourself, marketing yourself, challenge yourself, encourage yourself!
     Dennis said: We never get a second chance to make a first impression, so making sure that we achieve the best for our “brand” the first time around is imperative! This is essentially selling our best qualities.I support this view because people to understand their own strengths. Perhaps failing decisive savvy, perhaps gritty personality. In life after the tide washed in waves, there will always be profoundly some flash preserved and become a valuable asset in your life. And people are more rare is marketing yourself,sell yourself. Since weaknesses also inevitably become your weakness and how to take advantage of the strengths, complementarity is one of the ultimate success of the evaluation criteria.
         She talk about‘The key thing, within any of the many disciples, is motivation and dedication to the challenge in hand. Without this drive, we will not grasp anywhere near the maximum potential each and every person is capable of.’
      Use of strengths, is not a simple repetition. at one's wit's end, if only with a kick, just started perhaps to deter the enemy, but the simple repetition will not maintain this advantage. So take advantage of the strengths of both, we have to learn how to develop their own strengths perfect, every success in the future.
      Use of strengths, not ignore the others. One advantage of the person must not only an advantage, like Su Shi, well versed in poetry and lyrics, chan attainments also high. He is a fine word, but he did not forget extensively covered, in order to increase their knowledge, eventually reflected in his accomplishments over the word. So take advantage of the strengths of the essence also dig more strengths to make themselves even more perfect.
      Use of strengths, but not blindly arrogant. Some people think they are very telent ,they inordinately proud of their ability,which is taboo. Such as Han, his military prowess and no one can do, he is good but too arrogant military forces eventually lead to fatal disaster, what a pity pity. Using the strengths but also know how to converge.
      If each of the girls are good at running his own, then the world is elegant with fairy paradise. Miller says that Baochai sister but my favorite Heroine. Mixed world for you, but I love you that a snow-alone intelligent extraordinary temperament, stripped Cao master myth for you to render shell, you're not just an ordinary but angelical innocent woman. Daughter admire is your self-control tactics. Poetry and painting of talent not and will not fall, gloomy dark a little jealous possession of a good. Not all have both sides? And Baochai sister but they can subtly hide ugly heart desires, his most beautiful side show to the world that this is also a great run their own harvest ah.
     Denise Chilton was own manages methodically .She performance different role: financial service providers, coaches, bosses, each role to manage just right. It all stems from her own share of herself-confidence, she is good at marketing her own achievements.
     When sunshine sprinkling each youth's face, you do not try to run away, do not have low self-esteem. Burning yourself, play your own strengths, let self-confident smile always be a symbol of youth. Operating yourself to become a blazing passion sunset!
     No one is perfect, nor is the disadvantage of the people everywhere, make good use of their strengths, operate their own merits, everyone can succeed.
     Marketing yourself, like gold mixed in the sand moraine, tempered after the gold will sparkle.
     Marketing yourself, like a gem hidden in the mountains, polished, will be priceless.
     Marketing yourself, like little red  hide in mountains, people  will notice yourself.

          The furture of creative  technology- insight and highlight.

 Match 5th is an amzaing day,I can face to face talk with stuart cunningham.The Professor of Media and Communications.

We have a happy talk about media future after lecture.About Media, is nowadays a very the fire concept, roughly, is what "A person / small group of people to do a copy media," the meaning of.

    He asked:what do you think about Media furture?
    I said: I think that media workers should have a strong personal style characteristics, similar to some marketing microblogging large, it may be one person, it may be a small group of people do, but not too obvious because personal style basically transcribed variety of scripts, are not counted as from the media. In addition, there are so few people get together, company operation online media, personal style characteristics are not strong, but also from the media can not be included; secondly, to operate, at least subjectively, there is the desire to operate. Many people like to write about nothing blog, never expect to get anything through the blog material benefit, of course, can not be counted from the media. If this condition is not limited to Canada, the so-called China one hundred million blog five hundred million microblogging account, China's camp from the media, but also a bit too big a number.
     He said :Cunningham explained how the creative industry is very broad and can encompass numerous subject areas, different skills and disciplines. He points out how the creative industry is easily accessible as anyone with a creative mind set and talent can enter the field without necessarily any formal education.
     I said :I agree because nowaday with the technology and economy development,Operation from the media tool for many, early blog era, there are some self-Media: By loading the ad code on a blog to earn money. Today, there are still a few people work in exchange for points by such material interests, but to say that were moving world, really the question. Later in the micro-blog era, it was through the operation and maintenance of a micro-blog in exchange for advertising revenue, for example, there is an electricity supplier first claiming Chinese microblogging people, known as hundreds of thousands a year income. And then to today's micro-channel public account (referred to public number), it is a lot of people put them. To my knowledge, there is a single person operation and maintenance of public numbers nearly 100,000 subscribers, a few tens of thousands, the audience can not be considered a small number of.     Because media, this concept is almost accompanied by micro-channel public numbers up, has a similar ad networks to pick single business, issued a public letter No. various micro-operation thing. Some even believe the public through their own micro number, just two or three months to earn advertising every single one of thirteen million and more.
      He states that there are no formal barriers when making a living in the creative industries as there are in more traditional fields such as accounting where a certain amount of qualifications would be required before employment.              I agree because Management, is the lifeblood of the media core, but also a lot of discussion nowadays a major focus. My view is that can be roughly divided into two parts: one is pure online business, such as advertising orders, there are many paths that wants to go public numbers this; First, establish the influence of online and offline realized. Line realized there are many ways, such as lectures, as a consultant, to the point where much want, you can also seek brand endorsement of the road.
      He describes the broad range of jobs available and people who are defined as working in the creative industries
      I think maybe we will have more chance to work in the media.but now the situation seem not kindly .it will bring us some problem.
       First,as a small scale, how to avoid the mix of content production and the actual operation caused some of the ethical issues: for example, PR is issued or received so-called "protection money." In all fairness, this situation if the relatively small size comes in a big problem, but if the spread. Media industry for many years editorial shouting separation operations, although there is also a cross-border enforcement, but there is always the truth in it.
       Second,Media content sometimes touch some vested interests, especially with the media broke the news of the class-based, with a large scale organization to contend with, the power of the media is too weak.
       For all these,I think the media needs to be improved in all aspects. Becaise nowaday media began to emerge in this circle moment some similar prevalence of brokerage firms performing arts circle such organizations, since they are packaged media people, find local opinion leaders, expand business cooperation. This mode will produce more influential group of people from the media, but in terms of size, the majority of the so-called people from the media, just like most of the entertainers, will still be living in the very bottom below - this is by the brokerage firm to the doomed pursuit of efficiency.

5th martch
being a children's book illustrator
          Kirsteen Harris Jones come to Glyndwr on martch 5ths talk about children’s book illustration, and is now a freelance illustrator producing children’s books today.

          

She said:Being a freelance illustrator means the day consists of more than drawing, you have to be a secretary, mediator, accountant and illustrator.

       Based on my personal experience, I agree with her, because llustrating children's books is a highly competitive field, but also very interesting. I was lucky that I wrote the story of a children's magazine called 'extra-curricular life' can be adopted into this area is difficult, but is not no chance, opportunity is everywhere, the difficulty is that often easily missed. So where to start?

          Carefully observe the local library or bookstore children's books is not difficult to find the depth and breadth of children's books. The children's book show the world their colorful world. Return to innocence, to listen to the voices of children. Observe the market, with their own, pinpoint their location.

     Reading break rolls of the book, getting a God' read through the works of writers and artists to savor, it is not difficult to understand how publishers discover new talent - whether it is through a proxy, or whether they view unpublished works. Graphic is often easier to show a person's advantage. Writing and young children is not an easy task. Human Geography of Confucius and Mencius. . . . To a humorous children talking show, often people brains, most publishers often encourage aspiring talent.

           She said;  Client expectation-processcan be nerve wracking as client can change mind on unfinished work, if this happens be professional and try to put it right. They can also change the deadline but not always, and it will depend on contract.

      Yes, illustrator lovers want to stand out from all, you can try with a unique means to present their own. If we blindly take the old road of their predecessors, perhaps the good luck glorious moment, a long time, the focus of people will gradually divert attention.
         Smaller children's publishing, people often move between publishers. One thing once published no longer fresh. Creative difficult start, I understand from a drop in the bucket wage is not sufficient to maintain their livelihood.

          

 The illustrations of kristeen has brought me infinite pleasure, I began to compare my painting, I found that both technology levels are to be improved.
