Google Calendar Timetable.


Throughout the module, I've been keeping up to date with my time management by using google calendar this helped me to become more organised and effectively produce everything I wanted to for each brief.

Submission Criteria 

Found this sheet in the project file and thought it'd be a good idea to go through each outcome and see how I come out and evaluate what needs to be done.

This acts as a checklist and will help me massively when it comes to filling in my evaluation form.

2 -  This is

5 -

6 -  This is integral to my practice as a heavily conceptual designer. My designs have all stemmed and from a considered and well thought out concept and I believe I have executed all briefs appropriately

7 -   I believe I have achieved this through the final presentation boards as well as my FMP blog.

What my week is looking like so far.

A very intense week planned but hopefully productive none the less.

TOMORROW'S PLAN

During the module I've found it much easier planning each day rather than the whole week.
This gives me more structure and the repercussions of tomorrow's activities can be dealt with the following day. I've also allocated each task to a strict time slot.

I aim to keep to this plan!

Tuesday 7th MAY

7:30am -12pm : Finish alphabet (8:30 print off Owl stuff in drop in)
12pm - 12:30 : Have lunch
12:30 - pm : Review alphabet and get fellow peers to crit it
1pm - 2pm Print off more stuff in drop in
2pm - 4pm: Start applying typeface to printed material and research type specimen books
4pm - Evaluate the day. What have I managed to accomplish? What went right, what went wrong.
And blog it all!

Tomorrow's plan

• Develop variations for the Owl stuff.
• Print at 11
• Work on typeface 
• More context research

Today's to do list.

Here's how today is looking. Hopefully I wish to have everything on here finished by tonight.
I've booked print slots with James to ensure items are printed to a high quality.

To do list 

Now that Easter is over and done with I've planned the next two days using google calendar.
This gives my week order and leaves me with a satisfied feeling of ticking things off.

Who/what to include in my context publication.

Before the tutorial my context publication was mostly brief led but having discussed the publication with Fred, it's clear that I need to rethink my direction.

With the publication being brief led, the designers I were looking were not tailored to me but rather the briefs. So -

PLAN OF ACTION - QUESTIONS THAT NEED TO BE ASKED?

-Look at designers who influence my practice and inspire who/where I want to be.

-Broaden the list beyond designers ie. Fashion designers (Who share the same thought process)
Type designers

- Narrow down list

- Decide how the publication functions

- Will it be print or web? (makes sense for it be print, seeing as I'm a print designer)

- Will it be a stand alone publication or will there be a poster along with it?

- How will it be packaged, does it need to be packaged?

Today's to do list.
