On the 1st of December, I went along to another MMU lecture from an outside illustrator. His name is William Grill. He studied at Falmouth and graduated in 2012. I must be honest, I didn't hold much hope for this lecture as he is so young. Boy was I wrong, and so glad i was. He hold's a very strong head for such a young man, with a great work ethic which I strongly admire. William has a published book called 'SHACKLETON'S JOURNEY'. I can't seem to find the right word's to compliment William in the manner he deserve's but I will say "WOW". I do go to as many lecture's as i can, not just the mandatory one's but also outside of my uni time. I try to get as much information about the visual world as possible as to hopefully use this invaluable insight from working in the industry folk, to help my future success. I have been to some very dull lecture's in the past but this one from William, i think, is the best so far. I have moment's in the studio from tutor's, book's, documentaries, film, and so on, that give me that 'Click' moment I call it. It's where something resinate's solidly in my head. I had a few of my 'Clicks' at William's lecture. Plus this was the only lecture i have attended that had a eager queue of student's and tutor's all wanting to pick his brain and see his sketchbook's.
