Creative Conversations

This afternoon we were put into small groups in order to discuss our essays and practical ideas, the aim was to basically to go over anything that we needed feedback on as it's important to get feedback off peers as well as our assigned COP tutors. 

However, a couple people from my group were missing so it was just me and Hollie in our discussion, I still found it useful as she gave me some points towards my practical that I hadn't yet thought about. I explained to her what my essay discusses and the main arguments and then how my practical work relates to it and what I plan on designing.

Feedback and notes from discussion with Hollie:

• The booklet idea is really interesting, the idea of it being a 'how to' will work well with the other practical outcomes
• For the 'how to design avoid cultural misappropriation and instead design culturally sensitive' booklet that goes alongside the MDH spices re-brand, I should go with the idea of making it like a brand guidelines for what I'm designing (MDH Spices) by showing my design process of the re-brand within it- as if the guidelines answer my essay.
• Do I need to mention audience within my your practical brief? The audience is quite obvious; designers that often work for international clients and/or studios, basically who my essay is targeted at (graphic designers)
