OUGD401: End of Year Evaluation

End of Year Evaluation

Overall the CoP module has been useful. It has given me an understanding of the conceptual side behind Graphic Design and Artwork.

 Throughout the study tasks, it has helped me to reinforce concepts such as, connotations and denotations, and semiotics behind an image or piece of graphics. This is something that I didn't know about before. Overall, it gave me an insight and understanding of conceptual thinking and writing.

Writing the essay helped to bring everything I had learnt together. I was lucky to achieve a B in English Literature A Level, so it was good revision for me to write an essay.  

From my essay I decided that my publication would be a book on women in the 1960s, looking at the fashion trends, mods, and the change in roles and that it was acceptable for a women to be independent and single. I had already done quite a bit of research due to the nature of my essay, being about women portrayed in perfume advertising, as well as doing some research outside on the essay, purely because of self interest in advertising and fashion.
