Evaluation for studio brief 1 and 2

Evaluation

Time management was a huge part in order to complete studio briefs 2 and 3. This was due to the heavy workload. When beginning the briefs my time management was not managed greatly. However, due to reflecting on it during PPP, I learnt  to split my work up into 3 parts. I also learned to timetable my time, so I knew what I was doing and when and also when was my free time. In response to blogging, I feel more of my own input could have been put into place, rather than just blogging what tutors told the class to blog. This would help expand my knowledge and research further.Although, I feel what was placed on my blog was informative and greatly impacted my briefs directly.However, in response to the briefs themselves I felt group critiques really helped my development progress, therefore as time went on my confidence and skills developed in greater amounts. This was also due to the illustrator inductions informing how to access different tools and methods digitally. Other inductions were also given such as screen printing. I feel as though if my time was managed better I could have used this method within my briefs in order to show different media with my work.

In order to improve my work further, research could have been taken place, to expand my ideas and to make them more interesting and not as literal.Research into further typographic designs and artist could also have been made to get more ideas and knowledge.  I also could have looked ahead of myself rather than planning things out as they come leading me to rush some approaches. I also could have tried more daring approaches rather than staying within my comfort zones most of the time. I also could have improved my confidence within group crits and spoke up more about my thoughts and approaches  to my own work and other peoples.In relation to my type specimen and logotype I should have trailed more hands on approaches first of all rather than just jumping straight to a digital approach the majority of the time. This would have lead me to have further abstract and different designs holding more originality. Although, I felt I managed to conquer this more within studio brief 3. In order to improve in the future, I feel I need to ask my tutors more questions to get further knowledge from professionals in order to become better with the practice myself.
