Responding to the task send out in summer, which was to devise a list of 10 potential briefs to undertake throughout the extended practice module. I began to plan the types of briefs I wanted to challenge myself with in order to develop my practice and fulfil my creative ambitions. Using the brief template provided I wrote up a range briefs into a short presentation to be informally delivered to give tutors and students a rough idea of what I want to explore within the module and what type of designer I want to be. It was also required to submit a designers statement about what type of creative you see yourself as, my statement is:
A fresh identity designer concentrating around form, colour and shape.
This statement reflects my current design direction and how I wish to progress into extended module. Identifying that creativity changes all the time and where I am as a designer at present will not be where I am in May by the end of the module, I use this statement as a starting point and welcome the development of myself as a designer over the coming months.
Feedback:
Presenting to a small group provided a relaxed atmosphere that was more about getting an idea of where fellow students intended to focus their creativity over the course of the year. This was interesting to see how other students intended to challenge themselves and approach areas I was struggling with such as live briefs and external collaborations.
Following my presentation I was given short informal feedback from the present tutors praising some of my briefs such as brief 1 and 2 which were balanced with some queries and suggestions that I need to look into further to ensure my briefs are as rewarding as possible. From this presentation session I am happy with the majority of the briefs identified over the summer period with some changes and development needed in particular areas over the coming weeks to finalise this selection of extended practice briefs.
