After completing all the practical work that I set out to complete, I have had time to reflect on my work and myself before the hand in of this brief. Although the outcomes have been successful and I have been able to overcome any issues that have been thrown my way during the process, I feel that there is still room for improvement within the designs to be more personal to myself and to reflect the type of designer that I am. I struggled with this element as I felt it is too early to be self branding myself, however I have realised the importance of this therefore have tried to make the designs appropriate to the stage that I am at now. If I were to be given this brief again at the end of the year, I would like to bring in the more traditional print methods that I enjoy and want to work with more in the future. However, as I continue to grow as a designer and start to work in areas that I would like to specialise in, I will be able to adjust the designs I have already started working on and expand them where necessary. For example, I hope to be able reproduce the video using my own photography of sheep, making the design and photography more personal to myself. The current resolution is mainly acting as an example of what is to come.
As I have previously recognised that I am not experimenting with a range of ideas, I feel that I have been more successful with this process by sketching and creating a number of different mock ups for the business card as well as producing a plan for the photography side of the video to manage my time. Although I find this process difficult it is something that I am going to continue to practise to improve my work and design attitude in the future as it has meant that I have produced a high quality piece of design that is appropriate and successful in terms of my self branding.
