The YCN Oasis brief has been a bit of challenge in regards to finding a focused concept and attempting to execute my designs. I have come across a lot of obstacles along the way with foiling, laser cut and types of typography to use. However I felt that I did balance my time quite well with the other briefs and modules I had to do alongside it.
At points in the brief I felt I focused more on the crafting element rather than were it can be distributed which was a main point in the brief which I should have took a closer look at. I felt if I did this I would feel more confident with what I had produced.
I felt that the brief did provide a scope and breadth of possible outcomes and ranges I could propose and I think I did this successfully despite the trouble I faced in completely finishing them. I'm glad that I attempted to work out of the digital realm and took on a more hands on approach which challenged myself as a designer.
I think I did make a few unrealistic time sheets and idea's in regards to the brief, but I have learnt form this and will be sure to make more time for me to finish certain aspects of designs or choose specific ways to execute designs. I also believe that if I have a big design idea I have to be realistic in the time I have to complete it!
In regards to identifying the problem for the brief I think I did this successfully, a strong skill of mine apart from design is writing creatively so I felt this was the perfect brief for me and I felt that the messages I created were fun, girly and spoke to the Oasis customer which the brief asked for.
The challenge I had in the brief was evidently the practice of printing processes and not only have I gained a new skill in beading but I have learnt about little things in order to make sure I don't make the same mistakes again.

The presentation of work was not clear on the brief how it should be presented so I used design boards as a way of communicating my idea's. I felt form the sessions with fred I created boards with impact but still were easy to understand and be interested in.
If I have learnt anything from this brief it was to think before you plan, and the reality of time scale with what else I have going on. I defiantly bit more off than I could chew and was slightly implosive. But I am proud of the work I have created and feel confident and knowledgable for when I enter future competition briefs.
