Study Task Crits-OUGD403

As an introductory project to the course, we were given the task to produce an alphabet that described ourself.
The main points I received from my crit, and from my own self-evaluation are as follows- 
  • Good idea to scan the flowers
  • Achieved good shapes from the flowers
  • Bad printing quality, colours could be more vibrant
  • Letters could be bolder
  • Some letter shapes not as well defined/ inconsistency in shape
  • Could have thought of more ideas other than flowers/magazines- weak substance to alphabet

Overall I was happy with the result for a project which I found very difficult and I can visibly see the areas in which it could have improved.
I also recently presented the slideshow described in the previous blogpost. The overall feedback was good-
  • Well presented
  • Ideal amount of information on each slide
  • Could have shown deeper research into my chosen font and reasons for selecting it. 
I am aiming to try and encourage others to give me more helpful crits by asking questions about my work.This should hopefully help them think of more useful feedback for me. This will also help me identify strengths/weaknesses in different areas such as colour, shape and form. Therefore, I will be able to focus on this and improve as a result.
