Blog vs Sketchbook

I know it was preferred that we did a sketchbook for this brief. Although i do not own or have the space for a printer in my house i was still willing to give it a shot, I started a sketchbook, and i had a lot of word documents ready to print at college. What i did not know however, is that it now costs 25p for one colour print at college, which means for every £5 you get 20 prints. The nature of a sketchbook means that a lot of printing needs to be done, and i simply could not afford to do this. I started this blog a while ago as an easy way of communicating my ideas to the people who i am working with on this project, you cannot do this with a sketchbook. I have nothing against sketchbooks and i feel they are a nice effective way to show your work and research - but they aren't always practical. Please bare in mind that this is the same amount of work, if not more, than i would have done if i was doing a sketchbook. For these reasons i have chosen to present my work on a blog, i can only hope that it gets marked by judging the work i have done rather than the medium i chose to present it on.
