PPRD2 Evaluation
This unit has been continuous throughout the year and is about how we plan, reflect and develop our work and ourselves.
It became apparent this year that a major party of PPRD2 that it was important to develop our own identities as a designer. It was a chance to reflect on who I am as a designer and to work out how I am going to progress off this course.

Professional project
I have created a series of three posters for my final piece in this project, this is accompanied with a short animation, which explore and serve as a campaign for endangered wildlife in Britain.
My main aim for this project was to attempt to create something slightly out of my comfort zone, so that I would really be pushed to research and look really in depth into. I struggled in the first stages...

Here is my final animation; overall there are some improvements that could be made, for a start the speed of the illustrations moving needs to be slowed down. Secondly there is one image from the animation that is in a lighter shade than the rest, which also need to be change so that it fits in with the rest of the animation. Overall I think the animation is good and ends strongly but in the...

WWF 'HAPPY' Eddie Izzard advert / commercial... →
This animation is by the WWF, using commentary by Eddie Izzard, the point of the animation is that it tells a story. What I really like about the animation is how it comes back on itself. Everything starts from the panda and finishes on the panda, it gives a sense that it is just a continuous loop.

WWF Lonely Salmon Animation →
This is an animation by WWF, it uses a really simple visual style to create a fun happy environment. The purpose of this advert is to protect salmon but it is also to help create a positive atmosphere associated with the WWF. It is a nice approach and it tells a story as it goes along. I found it really interesting, although in my animation I think I am going to go for a more serious approach, as...

Deciding on Animals
Earlier in the project I decided on a list of animals from the endangered list that I felt were recognisable enough to create images from and base my campaign around. Now I am moving onto my poster designs I have decided to base my first one around the Brown long-eared bat. I chose this because I felt it had some interesting features that could be illustrated nicely and also because although...
