OUGD402 - Studio Brief 03 - Presentation Feedback

Verbal feedback on my presentation suggested that the overall layout of my design strategy presentation could have been better, which ultimately would have made the presentation more engaging. It was considered that there was too much text on each page which limited the space for appropriate images of my own work. As a result the text was slightly confusing, as it was not clear whether to read what was on the current slide or to listen to what I was saying verbally. To improve, the text should have been cut out completely so to make the presentation purely image based. This would have allowed a better understanding of how my work and images linked directly to each point.

In terms of content, I perhaps focused too much on the negative side of things. It has been suggested through research that people tend to remember negative aspects of something more than positive points, and this was evident through the two questions which I received at the end of the presentation. Therefore, to improve I should have explained a point and clearly stated how I would overcome this or how it could potentially also be seen as positive. This links back to one of my aims for level 5 which said "to worry less about things". As a result, I should be more proud of my studio brief outcomes which would then have people also engage with them more.
