I have thoroughly enjoyed this first module of which is now coming to an end and I think it had been a great start to the course because I have really enjoyed the variation of the module in having to use various different skills to be able to complete the task. It has furthered the knowledge in subjects that I am experienced In but had also brought to light new skills of which I need to learn and improve and has made me start to do that. The first brief was a brilliant start to the course as I have always wanted to delve further into the theory and application of typography as I don't believe we looked at it in enough details in my previous qualifications. This unit was also a big help as it helped improve my hand drawing skills. The second unit also helped me improve my illustrator skills as I am too used to photoshop and need to learn to bridge out into other softwares and this helped me do this. The third unit was one unit of which I thought I was going to hate but actually as it developed it helped be realise the importance or researching skills and improved the way I do this and finally the fourth and final unit was something of which I already love to do and therefore I thoroughly enjoyed it. Overall between the four units I think this first module has been very good help in the improvement of my skills. My favourite brief was definitely brief four as the creation of posters is one of my favourite parts or graphic design and I thought the lead on from the research in brief three was a really good way to attack the brief. Throughout this unit I struggled getting my head around the blogging aspect to the course but it all come together nicely towards the end of the course as I realised that the best way to keep on top of the blog to little parts at a time. To end on a positive note I also thought the study tasks between studio briefs to get us prepared for what is to come is a great way to structure out workload.
For the modules after this I hope to keep on improving my skills within the subject and have learnt about a lot of processes I have used a bit and ant to use more or would like to use for the first time such as some of the more specialist equipment in the digital print resource. With this next module I will concentrate on keeping my attendance and punctuality at maximum and keep on top of my blog by writing little bits at a time so that I don't ever have to play catch up with it again.
