End of Module Five Reflection

The second set of feedback I received on this course was for the submission of module five. I had expected my grade to dip slightly, as I was advised it might do so due to me having settled into the course more, however I received the same grade as the first submission - 74%, or the equivalent of a first. I was pleased with this result as I had enjoyed the briefs within this module more than the first. Again, both of the briefs were new to me, as I have never before had the opportunity to undertake the design of a wayfinding system, or produce a leaflet that would be used to convey public information. However, within these briefs I felt I could explore more of my own ideas and use a wider range of mediums to express my designs, particularly with the leaflet brief. Although demanding at times, I continued with the same level of research for these projects, and I feel that these gave me a solid foundation from which to create a series of successful designs. In my next briefs I would like to move away from digital design and explore the more physical aspects of creation by using a range of different print techniques and realising a more tangible outcome.
