Final MA presentation was today…

… and it went very well indeed.  I left and I wholeheartedly felt that it could not have gone any better.  The official feedback I recieved was minimal but entirely positive.  I think the presentation was steady and smooth considering the pressure of the situation – two years work boiled down to one presentation.  I spoke about everything I wanted to and more that I hadn’t planned for. I was able to add to points being raised and discussed.

I was smiling from ear to ear when I left.  I am very very very happy indeed.

At the end and not part of the assessment I was shown the perils of using unbranded photopaper.  In the dark areas of my prints the black areas had a blue tint to them.  I was told that this was either the (cheap) paper or that I had the printer set to incorrect settings.  The paper I was using was unbranded heavy duty glossy photopaper I had purchased from amazon.  The printer was set to SuperPro paper.  I am going to do some sample prints of the “blue area” of the image and see if I can get around this for future prints.  Afterall I have got nearly 40 A3 sheets left!  After this I am going to buy canon in future, even if I do have to pay more for less sheets.  Theres no point in having lots of paper if its not producing the results you want.
