Today class started with a discussion about Ismael Obregon's GAUGE talk. Jimmy asked us what we thought about it and I pretty much just stated what I posted in my previous blog entry about Ismael's talk. It was great to hear my fellow students' opinions an it as well though. I learned that I was not the only one who's expectations weren't quite met, but we all still seemed to take something valuable from Ismael's presentation regardless. We then handed in our creative briefs and discussed the importance of presentation. Some of the class had typed up their briefs while others chose to hand write them. I chose to type up my creative brief and treat it like the real deal as if I were working for a client in the design field. Jimmy then described the importance of doing so and showed us examples of actual design creative briefs. Most were simple and to the point so that the client could easily read and interpret them. Judging by the examples, I did people well on this assignment.
Later in the class Jimmy asked us to present 10 images with a single headline that changes the way the viewer sees the image in 10 different ways. This homework assignment was given weeks ago, so unfortunately I did not have the images with me in class to share. I was not the only one who did not have the images, so Jimmy let us bring them in the next day we have class. Thank goodness I didn't miss out on my points for that assignment! I was freaking out in my mind about missing the assignment I had already done but did not know we were going to present it weeks later. At least this taught me to always be prepared and to have your work with you because you never know when you might need it.
