Design Bridge: Final Product & Presentation Boards

After printing our labels we were able to apply them to the glass jars, which we chose because they are recyclable and re-usable and thus better for the environment. We had to photograph our designs for the presentation boards, so decided to do things properly so we had high quality pictures.

I think what we've made is good! The designs look polished and professional as well as being gender neutral. I really like that we chose to have the leaf pattern clear and the product acts as the colour, as it shows we've thought about the products and not just creating a design.
We each created mockups and wrote a two paragraphs about our branding which Rowan then compiled into submittable presentation boards. Having the graphic designers on the team was great for this as me and Ellie had no idea about how a presentation board should look / what goes on it, though I feel like I've learned a bit from this project. I think our presentation boards look good! They are well laid out and easy to follow.

I have really enjoyed my experience doing the collaborative brief. The members of my group all got along and with regular meet ups and conversation via Facebook we were able to finish everything and submit it with two days to spare, so it wasn't very stressful. I think now I will be less apprehensive of working in groups as it can be really successful with good communication and planning. I've definitely learned a lot of valuable skills, particularly communication and various digital techniques.
