- What did you learn? In this project, I learned how to create a story essentially with no words and only pictures. I also learned how to create unique designs only using primitive shapes like circles and squares to get the point of the story across.
- What was easy? The easy part of this project was picking a story to work with since it was a simple nursery rhyme.
- What was challenging? The challenging part of this project was arranging the elements in such a way so that it would get the point of the story across. I was constantly arranging the shapes and resizing them to see what looked the best. It was mostly experimentation which made it more difficult.
- How could your submission be improved? I could improve my submission by making it more complex. I know simple is sometimes better but I still feel that the elements in a few of the slides are lacking.
- How could I improve the assignment for the next class? Honestly this project was very good to start off with and I don’t think there’s anything to correct.
- How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios? I could apply the knowledge I gained from this project to make a storyboard of my idea for a project. I could also use the knowledge I gained to create more abstract work in the future.
- How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you? Something that inspired me was the images I found of google when I searched up the Jack and Jill nursery rhymes. I thought to myself, how could I make these scenes simpler for my project, and then I just started experimenting.
