Jedara Reyes Chapter 4 & Update

 Chapter 4

Chapter Four discusses portfolio reviews and funding your work. The book mentions portfolio reviewing events and I attended one before attending ODU. When I was picking a college I went to a portfolio reviewing event and I showed my work, received feedback and I even had schools offer me admission based off my work! I definitely felt the benefits of attending one of these events. The book talked about creating "leave behinds" which is not something I had at the event I had attended but I'm definitely at a point where I need them now. A "leave behind" is just something you leave with your reviewer that has your info on it like a business card. When it comes to funding work the book offered good tips like crowd funding and grants. I enjoyed the idea of offering limited edition prints. 

Update

I forgot to upload pictures in last weeks post so I will go back and add them though you will see them in our review coming up. This week I spent a lot of time looking at my old images to really think about what I'm passionate about taking pictures of and what pictures I've taken actually represent that.
