What did you learn?
In this project, I learned how to incorporate Gestalt principles and grids into digital design. Also, I became more familiar with Figma and its abilities.
What was easy?
I think that the easiest part was printing my project out and cutting each of the frames out.
What was challenging?
The most challenging part of the project was coming up with ideas for each of my frames. Since this is more of an abstract piece, as well as involving Gestalt principles, I had trouble figuring out how to represent each line.
How could your submission be improved?
My submission could be improved by planning out my frames more beforehand. In some instances, I feel that I came up with concepts on the spot, which caused it to take longer.
How could this assignment be improved for the next class?
I believe that the assignment is very clear and well-thought out. I don’t think there needs to be any changes.
How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios?
The skills and principles I learned from this project will be very beneficial for future assignments and work scenarios. I could use this to make similar projects or even to explain the principles learned to others.
How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you?
Although there was not a specific reading or video that inspired my images, I was inspired by all of the student examples. I went through each of the examples provided and could not believe how amazing they all were! Through this, I tried to make something just as great.
