Day 1. This is where it begins!!

Well, I don't know about anyone else, but 'Day 1' has been a bit of a shock to the system.  It has definitely highlighted where I need to improve, but if I'm honest about it, I already knew that.  I've been hiding away from my weaknesses and now I have no option but to tackle them head on.  My head has alot to do with everything by the sound of it, as I am obviously a thinker!  I did admit that at the start of the lecture, but I didn't realise how that was going to effect the task in hand and of course my future as a designer.

I discovered that everything I did know I didn't put into practise for this exercise, perhaps I was not quite ready to get back in the swing of things.  Anyway, below are the results of my efforts and as you can see 'objectively' I failed the task as I only produced 2 images.  Subjectively, I had a good idea, but spent to long thinking about it and therefore was unable to communicate the design.  I think I need to concentrate on drawing out ideas when they enter my head and scribbling notes with them.  I also need to find a sketch technique which I am happy with, that is quick and effective.
