Final Crit

Unfortunately I didn't have a great deal to show at the final crit as my print slot is tomorrow and I haven't completed my design boards. However I almost have everything finalised and was able to gain some constructive feedback.

I'm really overwhelmed with all the positive comments I received! It gave me such a boost to hear people saying that they would want one of the packs for themselves. Someone suggested that I try out some embroidery techniques within this project which is is something that I hadn't really thought about before, but it could potentially work? However I wouldn't have time to complete anything before the deadline.

In the mini group presentation I was able to communicate clearly and effectively about the journey of my project and explain why and how I have got to the stage that I am. The ways in which my presentation could be improved are:

• Choosing a name! We thought about 'Chin-up', 'Positivity Pack' and a few others- I will need to decide ASAP
• The target audience is a bit foggy. I had to explain that I wanted it to be for people our age and for those slightly younger/older (mostly students in destress) 
• I could possibly look at having text on other products rather than just patterns

For tomorrow (print slot) I need to come up with a name for the pack, I'm thinking 'Positivity/Positive Pack' might be a suitable option. I also need to make the stickers and put the colouring pages into InDesign, which won't take too long.
At this stage, I have realised that creating an additional activity and poster for the pack isn't realistically achievable, however I am feeling confident about the contents of the box as it stands, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that everything goes well in the print dungeon tomorrow...
