What? Where? How?We recently began looking into the degree show and the areas that we needed to discuss and things we needed to do in order for the show to be a success. I think it's pretty obvious that in order for the show to be successful we need to work as a team or teams.
So there are three areas that need a team each, these are: Design team: Responsible for the designs of invitations and relevant materials for the show. Fundraising team: Responsible for the raising of funds for any promotional materials, refreshments and printed materials such as brochures. Marketing team: Responsible for promoting the show in a variety of ways, particularly social media. The three are to communicate with each other in order for this to work. We were then asked to split ourselves into one of the three areas where we would like to be involved. I chose the design group. During my time in the design group were split off into smaller groups and asked to come up with a name and identity for the show. Unfortunately over the weeks we were doing with my group became just me so I ended up tagging along with another group. We began by researching past degree shows and looking at their materials for inspiration and to see what works and what doesn't and of course how we can make ours better. Once we had done our research, in our individual groups we had to come up with a name and present our ideas to the others. There was then a voting page where people were able to vote for the best name/idea. Unfortunately my "group" if you can call it that, didn't win. But I was finding it quite difficult to get involved with some of the people in the group as they showed very little enthusiasm for the task which then had a knock on effect and I didn't really engage with it probably due to this. There were some really good ideas produced by those involved in the design team and I look forward to seeing the other groups work when its completed!

Branding-LogoI was asked by my sports massage therapist to brand her business for her, which I was more than happy to do! So I met up with her to discuss it and because it was new and exciting my little ADHD brain got slightly hyperfocused and went and literally smashed tons of work out in such a short period of time.
After sending the logos to Amber she wasn't sure it was exactly what she wanted so id gone from A-Z really quickly at the beggining after meeting with her and then from Z-A just as quick when she wasnt sure and then that was it the hyperfocus was gone. Hopefully I will be able to get my groove back and try to tackle it again! Here is what I created during the wild hyperfocus stage... |

Component 2: (Wks 15 - 34) NEGOTIATED PROJECT (50% of Module) You will devise, explore and complete a self directed brief that tackles a design problem. Submitted Week 34 You will be asked to devise a design brief around any subject or issue that you like (Component 2 - 50%) - your proposal can evolve, expand and even change direction as you continue to research, explore and create your solution but it must consider it's audience, method and platform for delivery and any potential elements of collaboration that could benefit it's development.
