I feel like I have struggled with Context of Practice this year. I am not sure whether this is down to the question that I had chosen for myself or the subject matter. Towards the end of the essay I felt uninterested by the topic. It has certainly made me realise which aspects of graphic design I enjoy the most.
When it came to the practical I feel that I let myself down as I struggled coming up with a good concept. I aimed to make something that was quite experimental yet I think that my final outcome is far from that. For the final result I created packaging because this is what I enjoy doing the most, yet I twisted it to fit my essay. I am not sure whether it successfully portrays the idea of the ubiquity of a logo. Also because I was so indecisive about what to do in the initial idea stage I felt like I lost a lot of time that I could have spent further developing the designs that I had to create a much more engaging campaign.
Though I may not have enjoyed writing this essay I feel that my writing and researching have improved from doing this essay. Also I realised the importance of feedback within the module in order to keep on track with both the designs and the essay itself.
My time management through out this brief has been good though, I managed to reach all of the interim deadlines. A part from perhaps the draft submission deadline in which I didn't have enough words but I felt what I submitted was of good quality.
Overall though I am pleased with my essay as I feel that I have explored some really interesting topics and challenged my original perceptions of logos. I feel like I could have explored the principles of logo design more however I enjoyed exploring other aspects.
