This is a hard question for me to answer because I already have trouble deciding on what I do that is distinctly my own. I do not consider myself a very unique person and think that my experience is probably similar to others. I would, however, like to believe I’m a very unique and individual person but I truly feel like everything I come up with is just elements of things that my subconscious has picked up on. The things that I would consider unique to me are the mixes of different media I enjoy like film, photography, fine arts, music, and graphic arts. (Although I would consider it unique to me I know there are probably a thousand other people that also enjoy these things and consider them unique.) I have a background in fine arts which is not distinctly my own, I’ve met a lot of students in the program who also have a background in fine arts. Going to college previously has greatly influenced my approach to being in this program. When I first went to college I wasn’t as focused on what I was studying since it was my first time living away from home and being in a city. I didn’t connect with faculty and fellow students as much as I do now and didn’t take all of my assignments and classes seriously. I am a very diligent person who is good at taking criticism and implementing change based on the critique, which is a very important skill in this field. I think my ability to follow through with these skills could be considered unique to some..
