OUGD402: Presentation

Presentation Topics

As an individual...

I can be quite shy at times and not very confident in myself, I can address this issue by making myself step out of my comfort zone because in the past this has always worked.
I worry a lot and sometimes and I need to address this by becoming more organised.


As a designer...
I sometimes play it safe by sticking to what I know, I have notice this by the way I tackle a brief that I am unsure of/not enjoying. I tend to go for simple vector designs and colour schemes that I have used before. I need to push myself and experiment more.
My weakness's also lie in some of the more practical things such as book binding and manual printing. I wish I had more of a knowledge to these types of finishes because I think they could make my work step up a level. I need to time manage my time better so I can fit these things in whilst the facilities are at my grasp.

I think some of my presentation/finishing skills of my work could do with improvement. I think it is important that you end a project on a high. I sometimes struggle with the finishing touches, like folding and gluing work neatly and sometimes the paper stock I have chosen is not durable for my product. I will address this issue by practicing and taking my time at the end.

I was originally worried that I would not have enough to say, but after brainstorming my interests and stuff I think I have plenty to say!
