Covered - Evaluation

I worked quite effectively on this brief. I think this was down to the book I chose. I decided to use The Communist Manifesto because I'm really interested in Communism and already know some stuff about it. With the knowledge I knew and having read some of the book, it was easy to generate ideas. I was interested in the research as well which I think helped the design a lot more, because every part of the design is justified and to do with the book. I think this brief has been really successful and that's because I was designing for something I'm interested in. With other modules the work has suffered because I wasn't really bothered about the topic but with third year coming up it's taught me to really think about the work I chose for myself. The briefs have to interest me a lot so that I can produce the best work. My time management was really good on this brief as well, I was finished before the deadline which is odd but I think this is down to planning my time. Having booked print slots well in advance benefitted me a lot and freed up time for the other work. The only thing I would of changed with this brief is the ideas process. The research developed my idea quite a lot which is good but I didn't really think about a lot of other ideas before going with the one I chose. I don't think that is that major because the research really gave me this idea rather than me just storming ahead with one idea I've just thought of. I finally did some decent research which gave me a very thought out idea.I have enjoyed this brief a lot because I got to choose what I wanted to do which is good practise for next year.
