Final MegaCrit

Todays MegaCrit was really helpful and insightful in terms of seeing where everyone is up too and how people are getting on with collating their OUIL505 work for submission.

I have been feeling extremely behind with this module, due to my personal struggles this year so felt it was really crucial for me to make it to the crit with whatever work I have and get the crucial feedback from my peers for the last time. This will hopefully stand me in good stead as I will be able to apply this feedback, make important/relevant/necessary changes to my work - strengthening my submission. Also as I have been so unwell - I have felt as if I have been in a very lonely and isolated bubble, therefore am really interested in seeing what others think of my work, concepts and overall ideas as well as see what 

Briefing notes
• think about intended audience
• Clear concise information across all areas of submission 
   - boards, blog, report & final resolutions
• submit visual journal - think about presentation - no loose pieces
• submit in A2 plastic sleeve

5 A2 boards - as if pitching to a client:
• brief I set myself (draft proposal? finished proposal?)
• contextual research / artist / method research
• initial ideas / sketches / 
• experiments / development
• final resolutions
• final artwork in context / applications (mock ups etc, physical 3d work)

Project report - the creative  journey
• More in depth writing
• tells the story / journey of the project from start to finish
• what worked / what didn't
• How i would like to approach this project again
• what I have learnt / plan on taking on through into level 6

My collection of work for Pitch / Peer Presentation

Feedback

Key points to take forward:

• Strong concept and imagery / application / artistic approach
• Developing an in-depth , interesting and engaging range of illustrations, application and 
  products for submission
• I need to finalise my coral mural / larger illustrated design asap (airbrush, pen & ink)

• "Designs can be applied to anything": create higher quality range of mock ups showing  
   the full range / application of my illustrated designs:
   - badges/pins
   - magnets
   - mugs / coasters
   - stationary

• Create my 3D clay finals for submission:
   - 3D magnetic "stickers"
   - clay badges
   - coasters
   - 3D models / coral cityscape?
   - clay key rings

• finish my collection of 3D hama bead art
• Spend a generous amount of time creating my 5 A2boards, project report and blog
• Any ideas for packaging my 3D finals?

• HAVE FUN and WORK SMART
