Overall this module has been very useful for myself as a developing designer. Visiting various exhibitions and researching into different studios helped broaden my mind on whats going on in the creative industry outside the universities walls. Looking back on my design process last year I have definitely improved on time management and my skills on different Adobe programmes. Time management is still an issue at times and I've found it hard to summarise this module for submission, but I have definitely improved from last year where I left things a little too late.

This module has made me push out and contact people who have all been very useful. As I use social networks such as Tumblr, Instagram and Twitter I've been able to pluck up the courage and contact those designers I've been following for years and find out a thing or two about their experience. The trip down to London in January was interesting and effective to how I perceived other peoples work, however I did get distracted slightly by the rest of the museum. Although I'm a huge believer in appreciating other fields of art which could influence your own which is why I made full use of my trip visiting other various museums. I've also created a Redbubble and Behance account so I can start selling my designs and make a profit whilst getting more exposed at the same time, my next social networking task is Linked In!

Over easter holidays I was unable to visit any exhibitions or studios due to money problems, I found this very frustrating and is something I'm working on so I will not longer be missing out on all the excitement. Re-branding myself this year round seemed a lot more thought out and had a more professional approach, I've enjoyed working out my brand and who I am as a designer and I hope my project pack will reflect the type of person I am.
