OUDG403 PROJECT EVALUATION:

I regret starting this module off to a bad start in which I was unproductive, and didn’t realise the pace of which I would have to work, I was unproductive with my designing and blogging, and I feel I paid the price at the final stages.

Towards the end of the module I feel I massively upped my game and I began to enjoy blogging and was churning out good quality, informative blog posts at a very thorough pace, in comparison to the beginning.

The later projects, such as Message & delivery I feel at stages I excelled at, but my time management skills still managed to let me down, and certain parts of the project slacked. The alphabet soup project is my worst I feel, I am pleased with the final illustrator design and print out on A2, but for the earlier stages such as the 10 typeface variations, I managed to lose those before the first crit so was in a rush to reproduce those designs to have something to show in the critique.

After a few critiques, I understood the basis of them, and began to adjust my work in accordance to the feedback that I received from my peers, as I realised they reflected a target audience, and if they weren’t understanding the messages I was trying to convey, then neither would the public.

I have enjoyed researching various designers, and the lectures have given me an insight into new designers whom I hadn’t previously heard of, which I took into my on-going projects as inspiration to design.

In future modules, I now realise I definitely need to commit my self more, and I have now found methods in doing so, my pace of work vastly picked up during the final weeks, and I am sure that will now be my mentality which I shall carry through into the future.


I aim to produce thorough modules of work that will be academically intelligent as well as containing professional looking designs.
