Reflection

This project has been so intensely gruelling in terms of it's workload - even between 2 people, there was a lot to do, and it took a really long time to get into a theme/idea and really get into refining the touch-points. I'm really pleased that we ended up embracing our original satirical approach in our final works. It was a really unique approach and it captured the attention of our peers which we took on board as we were targeting student.
We did have some issues towards the end/hand in of this project.
The double sided printing at Massey is not exactly accurate. This meant our brochure die-cuts don't line up as exact as we would have liked.
We also had some trouble with our website in terms of making it do both a hover state and then a click command. In the end we decided to use click links on external websites and hover states on download links to show that we knew how to do both of these things individually, we just didn't know how to combine them. We also couldn't understand why our pdf hadn't properly uploaded into invision and it was messing around with the polaroid style photos on the about page. We updated and reloaded this many times and even went back and edited the original document but no matter what we tried we couldn't fix this issue.
It was fulfilling when someone (a student) saw our final poster when we were carrying it around uni and loved it so much and said she wanted to come - not realising that it wasn't actually a real event!
We are both really happy with the final outcomes of this project :)
