Today was a very busy day, we had a lot of things to do. as usual we checked the emails, and made another to-do list (: i think the to-do lists are quite helpful, especially when it comes to doing these blogs :D i did some research on Debut Design finding out who they are and what they do, because later on, i was going to meet marie who is in Debut Design (: i thought about some questions to ask her, that might come useful to me somehow :) she was very friendly and it was quite easy to talk and understand her (: while emma was in a meeting with her, i went round town to try and find biro pens, envolopes and a starfish 0_o strange i know :D it was for a project emma is doing lol. Today, i also did ANOTHER phone call o_0 its so scary haha :S. we also had to deliver posters for a slam to the library in town. we have done some more things but im not going to put them ALL on here. yes, there is that many o_O haha :D although its been a busy day, its still been a good day, so its all good :)
so yeah that was my day (:

Hey its Nicole again (:
my second day of work experience was, again alright, except the late start as my alarm didnt go off o_O that wasn't very good :/ my hours were slightly different today, instead of 9-5 i did 1-9:30pm but because of the late start it ended up being 2:30-9:30 :/ oops. one thing i've learnt, make sure your alarm is working the night before...or just set two haha. we checked the emails again and made another to-do list. i made two phone calls, which nearly killed me because im scared of talking on phones O_O haha and we did some 'promotional work' aswel. at about 5ish we set off to town and had something to eat in the 'City Bar' later on there was a few performances and i had a question sheet to fill out. that lasted up untill 9:30. So today was a bit different to yesterday, but again, its what i expected and thought it was alright :)

I haven't made any entries for a while. I'm now starting to organise a tour of 'The Professor Vyle Show' along the canal network between Stourport and Middlewich so I'll keep updating this blog with information about that as stuff happens. This week I have Nicole working with me. She is doing work experience and getting an insight into what it is like to work as a free-lancer in arts related jobs.

I'm handing this blog over to Nicole for the week so that she can record her thoughts and experiences...

Hi I'm Nicole (:

My First day doing work experience with Emma has been alright :) its the kind of thing i was expecting, i realise that doing an art kind of job isnt all creative stuff, as the most creative things i've done today is adding bright colours to a script on Microsoft Word haha, but i dont mind :) i did some emails and stuff like invoices and research about a few things. this morning we talked about how you get money being self employed and how its not always guarenteed good money, or even money at all o.O Overall today has been quite alright (:
