Week 1: Defining Client Needs

It is interesting, this weeks journal assignment is based on reflection for a discussion that didn’t end up happening. Which in and of itself is an important takeaway. Sometimes things happen, life gets busy, holidays come and go, work, family, personal life... happens. It is up to us to decide how to proceed when things don’t go as planned.

The live session we did have was fabulous and much appreciated. It went through this courses main project and told us exactly what to expect as we learn how to better define client needs and apply that education to the project.

I thing it is interesting that our project this month is based on a city and how to help the city attract visitors and become a recognized brand in the global market (depending on the cities strengths and offerings. I am excited to look at defining client needs in a different light, from a different angle. This is an interesting client and I think that it’s uniqueness will help open my mind to new ideas and ways to approach design and marketing in general.
