FINAL REFLECTION

Experience
Overall from this project, I really enjoyed doing this book, especially with the illustration and layout. This project forced me to explore more for inspiration while doing the layout. Moreover, it was such an experience doing the Van de Graaf Grid and also actually did my own staple binding. It was hard for me, but I was proud of my work at that time. With all the workload at this 3rd semester, this project was my favorite one. Although it was very stressful at first while generating all the content and illustrations, I managed to finish all on time. However, after I finished my works and showed to Mr. Vinod, he gave me feedback and at that time I was too lazy to refine my work. In the end, I tried to push my self and get it all done before the next class.

Observation
From this module and this project, I observed that everyone in my class has their own specialty and different style of work. Not only the art style but also their working style; how they manage their time, how they manage to finish their work and more. Including Mr. Vinod. I observed that he has a very good attitude as a designer and as a lecturer. He cared so much about his students and our improvements. Moreover, he's very diligent and neat. I learned a lot from him and also from my classmates. Although they were so quiet in the class, when I asked them for help, they were willing to help.

Findings
Then again, time management is really important especially when you have a lot of assignments to do. It's been a year I've been studying in Graphic Communication Design major, but sometimes I still couldn't manage my time well. Moreover, I've learned that we couldn't be easily satisfied with our work because we need to push ourselves and as a designer, it is important to make our work aesthetically pleasing and visual-friendly in terms of layout, graphics, illustration, etc. Then, tracking our progression, and record all the processes are very important so we can see our improvement and learn from it in the future.
