Project Evaluation

Overall i have really enjoyed this project. I feel my practical and theoretical skills have grown and developed throughout the duration of this semester.
I feel i have used different research sources and drew inspiration from different things to help coming up with a design idea. Although next time i need to concentrate more on looking at different forms of research rather than just the internet and drawing inspiration for my looks from everyday life too. Which is something i have done before but have struggled to fit into this project. Although unlike other projects which has had more historical research, i have really enjoyed the research side of this term as i feel its more me and what I'm interested in than other projects we have had.
I have definitely found aspects of it challenging this term, in regards to it being quite quick paced to  have our designs ready and research and background work done. And also the amount of designs we have had to do in the time limit too. However saying this i feel i have worked well under this pressure and created 5 good designs. There are aspects to all of my looks that i was pleased with.
I was really pleased with my product and spring images, but i think this is more down to being able to shoot in the studio and my model choice, as these images look the most professional and are the strongest out of the 5. This would be an area i would make sure i deal with in the future, as a photographer and studio can make all the difference.
I was least pleased with my day look, which i thought would be the simplest. I couldn't find the right hairstyle which i felt connected best with the look. If i was to reshoot this look i would add accessories into the hair, and maybe change the placement of the plait itself. I was however please with all 5 make up looks, which is the area i feel strongest and most confident in.
Overall i feel like all 6 of my designs have turned out well and reflect my research. Even though if i could develop my looks again there would be things i would change i still think i have followed the brief well and they in keep and portray my brand. I have learnt new skills in a our practical classes such as braiding and plaiting, which will help in the further with other designs and projects. I am more confident in my practical and theoretical skills and feel my final outcomes demonstrate this.
