For our final crit for Message and Delivery we had to critique 6 pieces of work in a pair. Afterwards we were given back our work from another group.
My Crit Feedback 1
This pair had some very good points about my work. They noticed that the stock I used to produce my work on was not thick enough and the mailshot could be seen from the outside. I have documented my print problems in my Design Practice blog and intend to change my stock to make sure that my design looks more professional. Another bit of feedback I got from this pair was that I had used 3 colours instead of the two allowed. I made sure that when I produced that aspect of my design that I used a tone of black which was allowed in the brief. My intention was to have my design be of high impact and therefore I limited the amount of research that I would present in my mailshot. This obviously hasn't worked completely as the pair were confused about some of information I had chosen to display. I will have to revise this before submission. The suggestions that I received from this pair was very helpful and I will make sure to act on it.
The second set of feedback that I received had similar comments. This is obviously a reflection of my work. I will need to change the stock I used to produce my work and will maybe have to add more information. I do not want to have my design doubled sided as I want it to be simple and to the point. I do not think that people will take the time to read a lot of information especially students. Another comment I received was that my envelope seemed rushed. I was going for a minimal look but will be happy to add more detail to my design to make it look like I have put more thought into it. I agree with most of the comments I received and will make the necessary adjustments before submission.
