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

Me and Tom have mainly illustrated throughout the whole module. We really got to grips with digital illustration and took it to the full extent. I have learned how to set up lighting studios and that lighting peoples faces makes so much difference in what the final photograph looks like. I feel that I have learned these well and am happy with what I have achieved with the illustration over photography.

2. What approaches to/methods of research have you developed and how have they informed your design development process?

I have really looked into hand drawn type a lot in this project. Partly because I love it and partly because I know I will be using it again in future. It is an expressive way of type and I feel that my research into it has informed mine and Toms final pieces as the hand rendered feel really works.

3. What strengths can you identify in your work and how have/will you capitalise on these?

I have seen that my organization skills have come on leaps and bounds. Before I was all over the place, but organization was a big part of this project for both me and Tom. So the way we structured and organized it was a big deal to me and it made working a lot easier and gave the final pieces a much more organized feel.

4. What weaknesses can you identify in your work and how will you address these more fully?

I did a lot of idea generation which I am pleased about, but once again I don’t think there is enough. I didn’t explore more ways of doing things and just rinsed the first idea dry.

5. Identify five things that you will do differently next time and what do you expect to gain from doing these?

• Make sure all of my ideas that could work are developed and tested.
• Test other media types
• Make sure all of my ideas that could work are developed
• Keep files organized on the computer as well as printed/hand drawn development.
• Think about trying things other than paper based solutions

6.How would you grade yourself on the following areas:
(please indicate using an ‘x’)

5= excellent, 4 = very good, 3 = good, 2 = average, 1 = poor
1 2 3 4 5
Attendance x
Punctuality x
Motivation x
Commitment x
Quantity of work produced x
Quality of work produced x
Contribution to the group x




Sorry for the late delivery, Blogger saved it in drafts and I didn't know about it until I looked today.
