Monday 1st May - Tuesday 2nd May

On Monday I met up with my team at the library. There was one member I expected to not turn up as they have not turned up to any meetings. This person did not turn up. We was at the library from 10am till 5pm getting the final parts of the group work done. We managed to link all the pages apart from the ones from the person who did not turn up. I am very pleased with the way our teams website looks.

We had a little problem with our catalogue printouts and because it was a bank holiday Monday, we ended up driving to Birmingham to get this reprinted. It was worth the journey because our work is ready to be submitted. Due to the fact that I am project manager, I will be the person submitting the group portfolio as well as my own.

Tuesday is submission day. Once the work is submitted, I need to concentrate on rehearsing my presentations for PDP and Project #HEX.

D&AD Submission

I decided to submit my work to the D&AD competition. Here I have attached the video presentation and support .jpegs that I sent. I am very excited about this and I am hoping I win a pencil from this completion, as this will give an advantage over others when applying for jobs. To submit work, I had to write small explanation. Here is what I put: ‘Virgin Venture’ is for the adventurous. The app and website allow people to book holidays based on categories and destinations. The second feature, which differentiates this app is ‘Venture Luck’. This feature is for the risk takers. The interface of this section is inspired by the popular Tinder app, allowing people to skip, save or book pre-planned holidays. The only detail needed from the person is a date. There are also interactive posters that work identically, allowing someone to tap the screen. Each tap reveals a new destination, they can then use NFC to save the details. ...

Campaign Presentation

The week of submission is such a blur. After rushing about trying to hit a deadline that was sooner than originally told, I was also struck with a sickness bug making it hard for me to function and concentrate. The work was supposed to be due on Wednesday 10th January however, the paperwork said it was due Monday 8th. Even though I was struggling to keep anything down, I still managed to go into university to presentation my presentation (Friday 12th January) of the work I have produced. After all of the struggle, I'm proud of myself. My presentation went well, I received verbal positive feedback from Paul which makes me feel like I will achieve a strong grade of 2-1 or a first. Hopefully, it will be a first as I am aiming to achieve all first for semester 1.
