Week 9 Tutorial: Project 2 Presentation
The aim of this week was to present our Project 2: Rendering. Everyone in my studio tutorial was separated into three groups with each tutor: ROB, WILL, and MAX. I was in MAX’s group. Everyone required to pin-up their Project 2 and makes it in such a way as an exhibition. We have 3 minutes to present and we were not allowed to use any computer during the presentation.
Reflection
For my presentation, I brought a couple of things which are:
+ MY FINAL RENDERING POSTER [Mounted on Black Foam Core] + MY DRAFT RENDERING POSTER + MY MATERIAL RESEARCH POSTER + MY PRODUCT CONSUMER RESEARCH POSTER + TWO OF MY INDUSTRIAL RENDERING VISUAL RESEARCH POSTER + MY SIMILARITY PRODUCT RESEARCH POSTER + MY BANG&OLUFSEN BEOLIT 17 SPEAKER [REAL PRODUCT] + MY BANG&OLUFSEN BEOPLAY P2 [REAL PRODUCT]
[Notification: Most of the posters pictures can be seen in WEEK 8 TUTORIAL]
This my working on Project 2: Rendering:
+ THE DRAFT RENDERING POSTER This was my first rendering design layout and I was thinking to submit this, but I got some feedback from my class mates and tutors. One of the most common feedbacks that I got was “try not to make it as an advertisement”. Therefore, I decided to change my layout to the one below this picture.
+ THE FINAL RENDERING POSTER This is my second design layout and I felt like it’s better than the first one because the aim of this project is to show your rendering skills, not to create an advertisement. I have zoom in my rendering, which means everyone can see the small details and the textures. I wanted to make my layout simple so I decided just to put the B&O logo and “BEOLIT 17″. Additionally, I also made the background in a greyscale gradient so then it would make my rendering product more appealing and eye-catching.
After presenting, what I could say are:
+ My preparation for my presentation was good. + My speaking was moderate. I spoke clearly, but as I started to become nervous, I began to stutter. + My body language was good. I made eye-contact with the audiences. + In general, I am satisfied with my presentation as I came with everything prepared and ready to go.
Besides, I’ve got a few improvements and those are:
+ I want to improve my speaking because English is my second language and I want to become more fluent and articulate in the way I communicate. It’s good to improve my speaking because speaking is one of the main skills that I used every day to communicate with people.
+ I want to improve my presentation timing. I went over 3 minutes and luckily my tutor is nice enough to give me extra time. Although, I want to get my timing right by practice presenting with time beforehand.
+ I want to improve my background design. I got some feedback from my tutor and he said that I should make the background brighter because the choice of colors that I chose for my rendering is mostly dark and it’s hard to see the rendering. When I look at it, I noticed that too. I should’ve done better and this is why I want to improve it if I have the chance to do it again.
Overall this was a fun and creative. I like that my hard work was paid off as I got the chance to present my final work with everyone. I feel proud and satisfied of my achievements so far. I really enjoyed this project and I hope I’m going to have the chance to do something similar in the future.
