1. What skills have you developed through this module and how effectively do you think you have applied them?
I have looked a lot more into different research methods, The research book really helped my develop my idea and has pushed me to consider more than just one concept when doing a brief. I think my illustration skills have further developed also as i have based my whole brief two on illustration, as well as my poser brief, I have tried to apply these skills to the best of my ability. I did still really enjoy designing my website, I have mocked them up in Illustrator but In the future I would like to learn more about web so that I can apply it to my work. I have enjoyed doing all the different processes which I have used in my project, I Used paper craft within my project and really enjoyed doing it, it is defiantly something which i would like to peruse in the future.

2. What approaches to/methods of design production have you developed and how have they informed your design development process?
Overall I have enjoyed doing all three briefs, I really feel like experimenting with different print processes and this has helped me discover new ways of working and therefore made me develop different skills which I can apply to my work in the future. Different techniques which I have tried are screen printing on to both fabric and paper and different types of digital printing as well as Paper craft and Lazor cutting. I have produced more design sheets than normal, organising my layout on design sheets , and this has defiantly helped me develop my ideas. my design sheets are better quality than previously, Design sheets have helped me move from my rough ideas on to my final products.

3. What strengths can you identify in your work and how have/will you capitalise on these?
| |||||
I really enjoyed Making the final products for brief 2 and so i think it has shown in the work, I overall pleased with my final products from this brief, i think making the Site map illustrations was something I enjoyed and so i will hopefully do illustration again. I really wanted to try new methods of working so that I can expand my skills, I think I have achieved this in this project and will defiantly apply the skills I have learnt to my work in the future
| |||||
4. What weaknesses can you identify in your work and how will you address these in the future?
One weakness which is very obvious within all of my projects is not enough research, if I were to go back and redo them I would start by researching everything in much more detail and further this through my project . Another thing which i would address in the future would be to do more design sheets.

Extra Merchandise
I have Created a few Additional Products which could be Sold at the festival such as posters, T shirts and Hoodies, as well as the tags which could go on them.
I have created this bag as i thought it would be a good idea to have paper bags which food came in these bags could be given to people when they buy food out and around the festival, on the sheet food stalls or They could simply be what the merchandise comes in.

Research booklet Photographs
These are the photo's of my research booklet on Fairytales are good, overall i am reasonably pleased with the outcome, however i wish i had been more organised with my time and booked a print slot as I printed it in the Graphics studio and the colour has come out slightly odd.
I also bound my book unsuccessfully and had to rebind it, this has made the pages look dirty and of centre. The photographs are Very dark and don't who the booklet of properly .
Logo and Site Map experimentation
So i began what is good by creating a logo which could be used for the festival, I wanted it to have a light hearted eel to it, but still get access the idea that it is a festival based on the Brothers's grimm Fairytale, therefore i need the type to be large and the imagery to reflect this.
I then began by drawing out what ould be a site map for the festival, this will show people round the festival navigating them to different ares of the festival depending on what they want, such as wether they want food or accommodation. I want this to be printed out on A1 or A0
Mask Design
I have created these masks in order to use as navigations around the festival, i will also used these on t shirts and tote bags as well as posters around the festival itself and banners
Website in context
This is roughly what the web designs would look like, However I have designed them to fit a computer screen instead of a Phone screen or an iPad screen so they do not quite fit the size, this is just roughly what they would look like.
