Evaluation

What skills have you developed through this module and how effectively do you think you have applied them?


throughout this module I really feel like I have developed my theoretical skills, through Lorenzo and Fred's sessions I have learned much more about both layout and type. For example i now know more about letter forms and what makes them and certain typeface. my confidence has also grow in terms of being able to use software such as in design. Before this module I had never used it and now I feel like I could use it to create new and interesting layouts.  


What approaches to methods of design production have you developed and how have they informed your design development process?


I feel like I have improved most in my layout, Lorenzo's sessions were really beneficial as I would never of chosen to produce something which was based on layout whereas I think I would now. I really enjoyed drawing the layouts and once I started they were fun to do. It was really interesting doing something which i had never done in the past. 


What strengths can you identify in your work, how have/will you capitalise these in your work?


Since producing the hot dog books in Ambers sessions i feel like i have used this a lot. it is a publication which i would like to use again in the future, they are relatively quick to do and look effective. I have also benefitted from doing work on layout and have used it with what is a line. My work could still be greatly improved but I think it has already improved from learning about layout since the last module. 


What weaknesses can you identify in your work and how will you go about improving them in the future. 


One thing which i really think would improve my work would be if I branched out a little bit more and did things which I am not in my comfort zone with. for my next project i want to mange my time more and make a weekly plan to organise my time more.i wish i had produced more from this module, such as in what is a line. 


Identify 5 things which you will do differently next time. 

  1. make my design sheets neater and more easy to understand and read.
  2. make sure i use the skills learnt in the last module to produce things in the current module. 
  3. produce products at different scales and using different methods.
  4. go to more workshops in my spare time, I want to use screen printing in my work.
  5. be more confident with my ideas, and especially when pitching or presenting.
