16th August - Presentation

Today was presentation day, fortunately Lauren had told me the week before hand that she would not be at the presentation space until around 10:30am at the latest. We had uploaded our presentation on the Sunday, so we where prepared for Tuesday, We had separated the presentation so that Lauren would talk about the first 3 slides and I would talk about the last 3.
On the Sunday Lauren contacted Gray and Mark about her being late and asking that we can do our presentation near the end.

Today we had presentations, Lauren came earlier that she said which was pretty awesome :).
at the start our presentation was first but told Tristam that Lauren would be showing up a little later, Gray must've not told him that. So he went on with the other groups.

Lauren had printed the booklet yesterday but it didn't double side, so I was meant to print it off before uni started, unfortunately though my train and my bus were late so that I couldn't do it. So I contacted Lauren to tell her.
Thankfully the presentations finished before expected and Lauren and I went to library and quickly printed it off, and put it together then headed up to Block 12.

12th Friday

Friday Class Lauren and I were meant to have our spreads done for our booklet, Lauren had done hers, but I had only done one of mine. I felt really bad that she had done hers and I hadn't finished of mine.

We ended up changing a fair bit round and adding some pictures in the other spreads, so we did a lot of work in that session. We got got feedback from Gray about our text and we refined it a bit more.

these were the start of our booklet, and then we changed it around and refined our other pages. The images are what i had done on the booklet and Lauren had done 3 other points, i didnt finish my last spread. 

After refining once we had talked to gray we got some feedback from Mark, and we were asked to quickly draw up some mocks ups for our presentation, our presentation was pretty much our images from our booklet, put into slide show format. So we did that. 

Then Gray mentioned that our cover 'Shit at social interaction' was good, but that we should be cheeky like our cover through the book, because it seemed quite formal. 

We went onto change one of (i think) most important pages, 

You go glen coco - Encourage Me

Requesting Connections (computer reference) - Connect Me

Hook Me Up - Engage Me

9th Tuesday

So today we started working on our booklet, from our 6 pages that we had shown last Friday.

As we weren't sure that on our 6 slides from last week where correct we quickly drew up what it would like in the booklet and then putting each point in there own spread. This is how we figured everything out and what went where. It was a successful day for us as we felt we where beginning to get on the right track and all we had to do was start designing and refining even more, to get the exact thing that came across of what we aimed.

5th Friday

SO today we came to class with our 6 slides nicely mocked up on A4 that looked like this...

We grouped up and talked with another pair about our work. The group we talked to felt like the underwood are persona and that he had a real problem but i didnt think they knew what to tell us we could work on. They gave us some ideas with the design and some criticism on that as well. 

We did the exact same thing, and i think its hard to give feedback and critiquing a 'brief', that we know nothing about. I was easier for us to critique the design and the style than the actual content, other than saying 'oh yeh, i can get that, i understand were you are coming from'.

2nd Tuesday

I was actually away sick for this session but Lauren briefly updated me on the session, and told me what work we had to get done before the fir day session. so i met her on Wednesday morning to discuss what we needed.

We worked on our persona, and 3 other slides and this is our end result, what we have ready for class.
