Intermezzo: Mission failed.

Last year the subject 'Industry & Publicity' was about working with an old-school camera with 4-5" sheets. We photographed every assignment with it, most of the time things failed. I was getting so irritated by the lessons last year and my teacher knew that. I simply hated it.

This year for Industry & Publicity we work digital all the time - our own camera or the phase one - and I love it. We did glass, vegetables and now our exam (Cosmetics). I did vegetables home because I bought my own studio-flash-set, or however we have to call it? So I also own a soft-box. I have everything to make black and white outlines home. So I decided to make my exam (a bottle of male perfume) at home too.

I showed it on my teacher of this year, and he thought it was good but he was not sure about the fact that I made it home. He talked with it about my teacher of last year and said to me that I have to make it again in class. Wtf? WHY would I spend so much time on it again, just to 'do it in class'... Waste of time if my first picture was good. (I give other people the chance to use the studio in class because I OWN THE STUFF!)

You know what the real big deal is? My last-year-teacher just don't believe that I'm good in it, this year. In his class I sucked because of the way we had to do it (4-5" sheets), Now I made a massive improvement and I actually like it. B. pulled my new teacher into his doubts about me. It's true, if you mess up one time, you're doomed.
