Just a collection of all the shit you’ll need in one place
Reviews are stressful—you know it, I know it, your professors once knew about it but they’ve fully transitioned from student to teacher, so, yeah. From recent students who endured these wonderful events, here’s a list you can reference to make sure you haven’t forgotten anything during your fourth all-nighter in the studio. Now take the time you would’ve spent making this list to shower ffs.
The Short List
- 16 yards of black felt
(Amazon, Joann Fabrics, Blick, or buy from upperclassmen) - Project labels: Title, class, project
(print and mount on artboard/foam core, glue push pin to the back and hang next to projects) - Process binders for each class or process books for all your projects
- Staple gun
(to hang your felt) - Pushpins
(clear ones, you want them all to match) - Scissors
(in case you need to cut your felt, fabric shears are your best case scenario) - Glue gun
(to attach pushpins to labels)
