1.
What skills have you developed through this
module and how effectively do you think you have applied them?
· I now know how to screen print in two-colour screen print. I
have also experimented with different paints , for example I made metallic
gold paint for Studio Brief 4 (speaking from experience) it all helped me
understand the whole process much better. Overall, it made me realise how
screen-printing can be so visually pleasing. I
also know a lot more about of different paper stocks that I can use both in
digital print and in screen print.

2. What approaches to/methods of design production
have you developed and how have they informed your design development
process?
As
mentioned before, the strongest design production method I have developed
is screen-printing.
But
I’ve also learnt how to work within a group and plan tasks for individuals,
which has lead to a Typography blog… typeandeye.wordpress

3. What strengths can you identify in your work and
how have/will you capitalise on these?
I
think my ‘speaking from experience’ outcome is my best and strongest
outcome. As it was the last brief of the year, I wanted to try and
incorporate all the things I have learnt over the year. I used screen
print, book binding, InDesign skills, pagination, type skills. I have
capitalised these by my outcome, which is a printed publication.
I
can also say my strengths are time management, which has vastly improved
over the year. Also I am not as stressed about giving myself a lot of work
to do and try to complete it as best as I can, it’s amazing what you can
accomplish within a week by focusing and committing fully.

4. What weaknesses can you identify in your work and
how will you address these in the future?
I
think my weakness is my two colour Bruce Willis screen-print as I felt
rushed it towards the end, because of busy printing slots. To address this
I would re-visit and improve my old work and probably book printing slots
well in advance.
Also,
still my biggest weaknesses would be confidence in my own work, which also
affects my fear in presenting it. I
always want to improve my design work, as I never feel like it’s really
finished, nor am I happy with what I produce!

5. Identify five things that you will do differently
next time and what do you expect to gain from doing these?
Blog –
Keeping up to date with uploading tasks and proof-reading my work
Time
Management – generally keeping up to date with briefs,
balancing my time, not leaving things to the last minute! However, I do
seem to work better under pressure.
Be
more confident - I will be more
confident about my work, which will help me present it in crits better.
Reflective
over work – be more critical/self evaluative, ask for help,
and try and try again.
Be
more experimental – experiment more and use different methods.

The evaluation of your work is an important part of
the assessment criteria and represents a percentage of the overall grade. It
is essential that you give yourself enough time to complete your written
evaluation fully and with appropriate depth and level of self-reflection. If
you have any questions relating to the self evaluation process speak to a
member of staff as soon as possible.
