Group Crit HOW TO BRIEF

GROUP CRIT 

We had our first group crit today to discuss our own work and offer other groups ideas on how they might be able to improve there own work and at the same time giving positive feedback as well. In the 5minute presentation we had to do these are the main points we wanted to address to the other group. 




After presenting our work to the other group they went away and discussed what they thought was good about our work and what improvements could be made, so we could then go away and make these improvements before finalising the design for our presentation the next day. 

The main points that the other group raised with us were: 



- understandable and clear to read and see.
- shopping baskets and quit smoking chart were very informative.
- boring information in a fun infographic way so you want to read it.
- clear layout.
- primary research was thorough.
- problems with not addressing commuting students and mature students.
- good infographic research on design context blog.
- practical research.
- not considered foods for vegetarians/vegans?
- small text?
- could post through doors at accommodation to put up on notice boards in flats.
- designin the envelope?

After receiving the feedback we thought that it was mostly positive, we wanted to produce boring information in a interesting clear way that could easily be used and read by students, from the feedback this had clearly been achieved. We decided not to include students who live at home or are mature students because they don't usually face the same problems as freshers, such as living on a budget and making there own food for the first time! Although the idea we were given to have the final information graphic posted through the doors of student accommodation so they could pass the information on to other flatmates was good and is something we might incorporate. As for the small text, we thought that when we tested the print out that the text was the correct size and could easily be read so didn't have to change!
