In this module I have had to look at myself in a very different light which I have never had to do before; however I think it has made me realise who I am as an individual and also what I want from life and how I am willing to achieve this, including my goals for the foreseeable and near future.
Although I have found it quite hard at times, I actually managed to enjoy it eventually and embrace having full reign and being able to bring all my own interests and inspiration to create something I am extremely proud of and that I think represents me perfectly.
My A2 research poster, I decided to illustrate the whole thing and use no text, as this is something I have missed doing since being at uni, therefore I embraced the opportunity to be able to incorporate something I love doing into my work.
My Self Branding, was very different to others which I was quite nervous about, as I branded myself along the lines of teaching design to children, which fits in with my ambitions to become a teacher. I really enjoyed researching into what children think colour and Graphic Design is, and also their feelings about art as a subject. Their responses made me laugh and became very useful for my design decisions; also it made me realise how much art and creative subjects have an effect on their lives, and further implemented my view that art and creative subjects are just as important as academic subjects.
My design strategy presentation was actually something I am most proud of, out of all my work I have created since being here, I believe my idea was very original, and made it easy to include everything into my presentation. I enjoyed being able to reflect upon my time here and it made me realise how much I have changed, experience and how far I have come in so little time, both within the design aspect but also the social aspect of university.
My presentation skills have also improved greatly, as I used to be extremely shy, however I felt it was easy to present my ideas and presentation without any nerves or tripping up on my words or being embarrassed.
In conclusion, I have really enjoyed how this module has allowed to me to be experimental and also discover myself as both a creative and as a person in general.
