EVALUATION
Monday, December 12, 2011
EVALUATION ON EACH STAGE OF THE DESIGN CYCLE Investigation During the investigation stage, I followed the requirements of the things I needed to research about and what to put in the stage. I also stated what am I going to use and the goals I want to achieve for the logos. I also asked the client important questions to guide me in making a product to satisfy her and others.
Design During the design stage, I made the concept designs that I will use to create the real logos. The concept designs are the ideas I want to put in the logo design. I also wrote down some of the pros and cons of the designs, which will remind me of what to modify and improve on.
Plan In the planning stage I had to make plans to what I m going to do and the equipments that I will use during the creation stage. I also have to organize the time and try to predict on how much time I m going to use to finish
Create
the product.
The creation stage is where I make the actual product, the part where I try to use my previous stages as guide lines to help me finish the product easily and in an efficient manner. The problem with the creation stage is that there are unexpected things along the way like how making the modified designs or the first layers will consume more time than predicted. With that happening I ended up not having time to make the IB learner profile logos and instead just work on the design cycle logos only. It was pretty messed up since I took my time and my effort to make the IB learner profile logos as simple and easy to be understood as possible.

DESIGN CYCLE EVALUATION PT. 2 & MEETING SPECIFICATIONS Evaluation The evaluation is where I evaluate on the stages I previously did, thinking about the mistakes that I made and how to improve on them. This stage is also used to make you think of what are the accomplishments or successful points you made and the mistakes or least successful points you made during the project. This is stage will help anyone to improve and think about their next project.

EVALUATION Successful Points The successful points that I made in the logo creation is that I successfully made a logo that followed the requirements that the client told me to.
Least Successful Points The least successful points I made in this project is that I wasn t able to manage my time well to do everything I designed back in the design stage.
Problems During the project I didn t expect how much time it will take me to create the ďŹ rst layers and also the second layers. I also have other projects to submit in the same day as the IT, so I had to sacriďŹ ce 10 of the designs to save time to make my other project.

EVALUATION PT. 2 Modifications/Improvements I could do some modifications/improvements on the Plan stage logo, by making it look more simpler and easier to understand. I also can make an improvement by managing my time better next time.
Client Feedback My client was quite pleased with the simplicity of the designs and she thought most of the designs are nice.
The impact on the Society and Environment SOCIETY- My product would effect society by how people will think of the design cycle. Usually the design cycle are just filled with complicated words, now they would think of it as uncomplicated and simple looking cycle with just pictures in it.
ENVIRONMENT- During the making of the product I used a lot of electricity to make up the slides and the second layer drawings. I also used paper which involves cutting trees, to create the first layer drawings. Both of these are the sacrifices needed to make the product, maybe I can use the wall to draw but that would be the same thing since we have to waste concrete and cement.
