BEN HARWOOD OUGD 301 SELF EVALUATION One of the main skills that I feel I have learnt through this module is the skill to create stronger concepts on which to base my designing. I feel that through the Tungsten brief and the Chimie brief i spent a lot of time coming up with a concept that was well thought out and interesting. I think that i have applied these skills effectively through designing identities that directly communicated the concepts behind them. Another skill that i feel i have developed through this module is professionalism. Through working with a live client on a live brief I feel i have learnt a lot more about designing for the real world rather than simply for proposal.

of a collaborative live brief on time and by remaining civil with my partner by the end of it. One of the main methods to design production that have developed over this module is web design. Through taught software sessions and personal practice i feel that my knowledge of design for web has increased drastically. This skill has informed my design development process highly; causing me to design every page of a website to go live for a client as well proposing websites for all of my final briefs. Another method of design production that i feel i have developed during this module is with regards to product photography.

This has informed my design development process by not only considering how my products will photograph when designing them but also by teaching me to spend more time and take more care over product photography. A final approach to design production that i feel i have developed over this module is with regard to stock choice. I found that over this module i
