Today was our interim critique for our twelve twigs project. I think by the end everyone got a lot of good feedback. Whether you came in thinking your idea was powerful and you were proud of your project or if you came in kind of hiding your project behind someone else’s and not wanting to stand up and introduce it- We all left with changes to make and things to think about.
The most common issue for the projects over all was defiantly the craftsmanship…apparently not everybody got something from the reading we has assigned to us this week-on craftsmanship!- A lot of us need to work on making cleaner cuts and just all around making our projects more presentable. I think we need to use good craftsmanship whether on our first attempt or our five hundredth attempt. It is a huge reflection on our work and how much we put into it. Like Tommy said during class- If we don’t care, they don’t care.
Another issue that was brought up a lot was relativity. Our projects need to relate back to the concept in which it came from. Each of our projects should have an obvious focus. Our focus should be thought out; the emphasis still on our twelve twigs. Another thing that really stuck with me from class today was variety reduction. We always talk about simplifying our concepts and I think that this is really important to do so that your idea is portrayed clearly and you don’t feel the need to defend your project. Also I noticed that a lot of people still had not incorporated their binding agents into their design. They simply had glue or whatever but it wasn’t of any significance other than being used as an adhesive.
These are just a few ideas of the things we all have to think about and relate to our individual projects over the weekend.
