502 End of Module Self Evaluation

At the end of this module I feel I have completed my original aims and have identified goals for level six. These are points that were discussed in the presentation as they have been important in my growth as a creative as well as providing myself with goals for the future. 

Through engaging with creatives who have a similar interest/style as my own, I have developed my understanding of graphic design as well as enhancing my illustration knowledge through collaboration and reading. Completing studio brief 02 has encouraged me to engage with creatives and has given helped me to develop these relationships. Through choosing to produce a physical outcome in response to the interview content to send to the creatives involved, I have also been able to put into practice some of the skills that I have built on this year. Those being preparing and printing and editorial as well as effectively communicating in collaboration. These are relationships that I hope to build on over summer and throughout level 6. One way in which I hope to do this is by getting involved with Buttercrumble to produce a proposal for the Independent Leeds for a feature in the magazine.  


Before entering level 6 I hope to be able to practice traditional print methods more. For the 505 01 module I felt that my confidence in my skills meant that I restricted myself in the outcome produced. This is not something that I would like to hold me back in the future and therefore aim to practice screen printing/foiling over the summer period to better my practice. These are key printing methods that I have identified as being unique to have in the graphic design/illustration industry and therefore would like to ensure that I bring into my practice more.
