Greetings From... Final Crit

Postcard Printing





I printed my images out at Staples, as I thought drop-in may be a little too risky, on 300 GSM  slightly glossy paper.

Problems

I was a little disappointed with the way that my prints turned out; the colours appeared darker than they did on screen, and sadly some of the images appeared pixelated. I think when I re-sized the images using photoshop I must have forgotten to set them to 300 dpi.

Positive Comments

My peers commented on my good use of shape, concept and visual quality of the images, which I was so pleased about. It felt good to see that other people could see how much my skills and ideas had improved since the brief began three weeks ago.


Constructive Criticism/Questions

Throughout the production process I have realised some of these fallbacks myself already, especially the last question.
I will really take some of these comments on board in order to develop my practice in future briefs, especially how valuable the planning process can be upon reflection of finished work, and also other things such as having a set colour scheme.
