OUGD403 : Design Skills - Group Critique

 Message and Delivery : Reasearch Group Critique


As this initial 'Message and Delivery' brief is research based, we were - unlike previous briefs - only  required to bring the newpaper and article we had chosen and a body of visual research in reponse to it.
Unlike last week, the crit was relatively informal as the work we were presenting was the intial research of the design process rather than final designs. In groups of seven and with one tutor present, we were asked to explain the article itself, why we had chosen it and the initial research we had produced in response.
 I found the Crit particualarly interesting as I was able to learn, in more detail about the different news stories that had been chosen and hear different peoples opinions on the subject in our discussion. I also recieved feedback on how to focus my feedback in preparation for our next brief which will use the information we have gathered.

Feedback from the Crit:
Produce more focused research - choose an area from the research gathered and produce more in-depth research into this subject.
Ask / Answer questions though research - Possibly research into questions that I personally would like to know the answer to, such as; Is is successful? Do people notice? Is it morally right or wrong? And start to think about my own opinion on the subject
Watch 'POM Wonderful Presents: The Greatest Movie Ever Sold' - This film was suggested by one of the other member of my group, it is a documentry film about product placement, marketing and advertising within films and tv shows.
