End of module evaluation

In response to the module as a whole I much preferred studio brief 1 which was self initiated. This is because I chose to complete multiple shorter briefs, therefore, I enjoyed the fast transitioning between briefs as it meant I did not get bored of the briefs and kept engaged in them. I also loved the interaction that this brief maintained such as meeting up with clients especially for the cricket flyers where I was able to actually visit the club itself as part of my primary research.

I felt that from completing the following module it allowed me to learn to stick to a restricted timetable to allow for all of my work for myself and clients to be completed on time but also to a professional standard. I have learnt that in the future branding is something I mostly enjoy particularly logo designs and exploring printing techniques. I also learnt that I love interacting with clients and being responsible for bringing clients ideas a reality.

If I was to re do the module again I would choose a collaboration which I would enjoy more. However, working with a copy writer and art director allowed me to be able to get a true feeling of what it is like working as a graphic designer in industry. This module made me feel I would much prefer to be an independent Graphic designer who focusing on freelance branding for smaller companies/ businesses.

Out of the following briefs I felt that Megan Callan's logo designs and the cricket flyers were the most successful. This was due to them exploring printing techniques giving the finals more of a professional finish whist holding a strong concept/ reasoning.

If I was to improve the following module I would allowed more congruency time for errors and allowed more time for final production. This was because I felt I spent too much of my time on initial ideas and research rather than diving my time equally for the entire process of the briefs.
