Lectures

Week 6 (9/2/2022)

During the lecture, sir gave us brief for final project that he gave us an idea of what our final project should be and what shall we include in our slides. He also ask us to rethink the rationale idea for our final project based on the results of data collection we collected. 

Practical

Week 7 (16/2/2022)

During this week meeting, we gather together to think of ideas for our final projects. Before coming out ideas on the final products we going to do, we reflect on the results we gather through data collection. Based on the results, we came out of ideas on making tattoo key chains, card collections for those who love tattoo but are afraid of pain and we also think of wanting to specific on why is tattoo more acceptable in today society and how people changes their mindset of tattoo is scary to it is an artistic work and hence we decided to include comparison of the past and present of tattoo to show the difference. We also think of posting on social media about post of tattoo history to let people know more about tattoo. After discussing, Ken send our ideas to sir and wait for his feedback. 

Week 8 (21/2/2022)

After receive the approval from our supervisor, we have a meeting on how do we combine the two ideas together and complete a outcome. Then we all agreed to do a booklet for our final products. For the booklet, we decided to have 3 pages where the first page is the cover page and the second is the content where it has the comparison of both past and present tattoo design and their meaning behind the design and the last page is something like tattoo card for clients to list down what they want. Then we distribute work and did the content part of the booklet as that is my suggestion. Then after doing all the designs on AI, we compile all the work into PDF file and convert into online booklet maker using google app. 

Feedback

Week 6 (11/2/2022)

Sir asked us to start to think of ideas for the final project. He suggested us not to think of designing tattoo but making a product that speaks off the data collection results to the audiences. 

Week 7 (18/2/2022)

After we send our ideas to sir, he agreed for our first and second ideas that we stated and he suggest us to make a product that have the combination of these both ideas we stated. He then asked us to start working on it. 

Reflections

Experience

In the final project, we all discuss and agreed on doing booklet and we distribute the work well where everyone did their job well. I actually felt quite sad where we didn't have the chance to meet up and work for our final project as most of our teammates are in China and hence we decided to do our product online and digitally. 

Observations

I think that the idea we choose was easy and we didn't have much difficulty on doing that. Through this assignment I also observe that communicating within teammates is important so that we can get our work done in time and also produce a quality work. 

Findings

I found out that we do did a great job on our final product as it does reflect on our data collection might as well link to our research objective and questions. I think that we all did well in this module and everyone is cooperate in doing their job.
