What I did today?
Today I created a mood board as a form of research. I explored how brands promote themselves on Instagram looking at what works well and what elements should be considered.
What were the main three elements that helped me develop?
- Yesterdays feedback helped me to know what to include in my work today because I knew what was worth including and what wasn't.
- Having the freedom to present my research in the way I prefer the most rather than following a strict brief, it made my work more expressive and creative.
- I had prepared the information and pictures for my mood board previous to the lesson so that I could get on with it straight away, this saved a lot of time meaning that my schedule should be on track.
What did I struggle with today?
I didn't have any struggles as such, however I did have to spend quite a lot of money on the supplies for my mood board when I could've used the computer to do it for free. But this was the choice I made as I decided I wanted to present my idea this way. Also, the silver pen I used isn't as dark as I would have liked and you have to be close to the board to read it.
Was there a ‘what happens if’ in my day?
'What happens if I can't find the right things in the shops to make my mood board, what if I have to put it off until another day.'
Were there any eureka moments?
I am happy that I made the choice to create a mood board as the end product looks very creative and adds some variety to my usual computer work.
How can I improve on today - tonight or tomorrow?
Make sure my mood board doesn't get forgotten. As it's a creative piece I definitely want to be able to display it. I need to carry on with my schedule and not keep on altering tasks when I'm personally satisfied with them.
