How to...

What roles did you take on in the group? 
I designed one of the four posters and also presented this poster to the rest of the class when we did our group presentation. 


How well do you think you preformed in the roles? 
Pretty well because the work was produced within the time frame and I shared my ideas. 


How well do you think you worked as a group? 
Really well because we all shared ideas and communicated throughout the whole design process. 


What were the positives of working in a group? 
There was a range of styles and ideas. I also spoke to new people which created friendships. 


What were the negatives of working in a group? 
sometimes ideas clashed slightly but there was never any major disagreements. 


What will you do differently next time? 
I'll have more confidence when contributing to group discussions. 


Where could you have improved your resolution? 
We could have asked for ideas from a variety of other students.


What were the strengths of your presentation? 
It wasn't too serious which made it more interesting. We had an example of a product. We all said something as part of the presentation.

How to...


This is the final piece that i designed for the group brief 'HOW TO...'
Our four final ideas included, yoghurt aftersun, pac-a-mac, ice lollies and mansize kleenex. The basic information found on the poster is the steps in which to use the product or make it and a little bit about the product. 


These are the four final ideas. They work really well together because of things like the similarity in colours and the simplicity. We made them easy to read and to look at because they are aimed at a student audience. Overall i think this is a good solution to our problem we began with.
