Collection 100 Paul Sutton Module Self Evaluation

What skills have you developed through this module and how effectively do you think you have applied them?
Because of the nature of my project i have developed my Photoshop skills this co in-sided well with the Photoshop induction and brief, but i think i furthered my skills through the amount of editing i have done throughout this project with vary degrees of success but on the hole the results where pleasing. 

What approaches to/methods of research have you developed and how have they informed your design development?
I did a lot of initial research on my dad in general, but when i had decided on my idea most of the research was to do with dates of to coincide with the hundred different facts I had chosen for my dads fictitious life. this research had a direct correlation on what pictures I used and how I used them. Another vital piece of research I did was the Book binding workshop because a book is a key aspect of my design. 

What strengths can you identify in your work and how/will you capitalise on them?     
I really enjoyed using Photoshop as an integral part of my project and feel it is a key strong area within the body of work, I haven't used Photoshop in as much detail  as i have through this project but i feel it went well an is a skill i will be able to develop and pursue further. 

What weakness can you identify in your work and how will you address these more fully?
I feel one of the weakest parts of my work is the accumulating and recording of the different necessary design stages and ultimately the blogging of this information, this is something i know is very important to the course and my development as a graphic designer and is something i will make a concerted effort to improve upon.

Identify Five things that you will do differently next time and what do you expect to gain from doing these?    
1. Better time management. 
2. Use Blog more effectively.
3. Create more variations of work.
4. Experiment using different techniques.
5. Create a more comprehensive body of research.
