Responsive - Fedrigoni artboards



Evaluation

Working in a collaboration was really eyeopening for me, as Richelle would consider different things to what I did, based on our interests, personality and our practice.


I really enjoyed working on this project because, as much as I love animation, it was something different to give myself a challenge. I would have liked to of included animation into the project, and I dis stat looking into stop motion origami, but our research lead us elsewhere. I did however get to include quilling which I love to do on the side, and as a group we likes how it fit with the design and history of the paper company.

Challenges we faced were mainly to do with time, we struggled to find days to meet, and relied heavily on keeping each other up to date through messaging, which wasn’t too bad at the beginning as we could post onto a private online page, so we could meet and discuss what needed to be done in uni, and then each go off an do our part and post our work and give feedback.

But when it came to near submission we had other deadlines, and sometimes I’d be waiting around for my partner and I was worried it wouldn’t get complete in time, because we bother needed to work as a team for the final bit done.

I would have liked to experiment more with different materials and patterns, we did begin to experiment with foiling, but I was so conscious of time that I suggested just leaving it and concentrating more on getting a final outcome done.

The outcome I’m pleased with, it’s not really what I would have thought I would have done myself, but I did enjoy the process of designing and making it. 


And I think working with someone from a different course really helped, not only to interact with new people but learn new skills from them.
