dma217 project 1 reflection

  • What did you learn?

I learned more applications on Figma and I also became better with creating organic shapes and characters on Figma that I might have been too nervous to make before with my limited experience.

  • What was easy?

It was easy actually making my designs come to life like I wanted it. Again, I have previously used Figma a lot, so I didnt have a design planned that was too complicated that I couldnt do.

  • What was challenging?

the challenging thing was actually coming up with a design and making the logo icon. I couldnt think of something that was unique and fun, all the while doing something that was the difficulty of my comfort level.

  • How could your submission be improved?

maybe doing more interesting transitions on my prototypes and spending more time on that and less on the design aspect.

  • How could I improve the assignment for the next class?

I think the assignment was well-planned and gave us good amount of time to do it. It was also well explained on the original project sheet with plenty of examples.

  • How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios?

It gave me more experience using Figma, so I think that experience will help in the future as it did now.

  • How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you?

The past student examples really helped me find a style I liked.
