Design Challenge: Create a Logo
After attempting to summarize my life story to Kat, I really identified with the values she described for me. She said I was really good at self reflection, a good work life balance is important to me, I am ambitious, and I know what I like (one of which is MiDE).
My logo displays that I like to go out with friends, go to shows, travel, read, and try new restaurants. I have learned so much inside and outside of the classroom in my life that I know whatever job I end up in has to allow me to continue learning outside of the workplace, too!
After reviewing my results from this exercise from the beginning of the semester, I noted that Embracing Ambiguity and Iterative were two areas I planned to focus on. I improved in both areas, with Embracing Ambiguity to be the area I noted that I improved the most on. Out of all the advice I listed for future students, I think the most important piece is not to stress! The first LEGO project I found to be the most stressful. However, after that project you learn to go with the flow and not to stress about a final idea too early on.
I believe that after this course I am less single minded. Creating multiple concepts sheets allowed me to accomplish this goal as I worked with my teammates to combine ideas and explore multiple options.
In the future, I hope I can continue to improve my prototyping skills. I still feel stressed having an “unfinished” prototype made out of cardboard instead of the real material.
Checking Back In With Our Interviewees
I just wanted to document that after checking back in with our interviewees, we had them all take our final survey. This way, their voices will be heard as well as other random participants.
Final Concept Sheet
My Concept Sheet
I interviewed some people to see what they thought of the idea and I received only positive feedback! I am looking forward to see what Catherine and Christine came up with after Thanksgiving Break! I imagine our final presentation would include a compilation of all our ideas, since our final idea is a movement rather than a product.
Ideation Session
After deciding on a team name of #NoFilter, we were ready for our Ideation Session.
We asked our users to show us pictures/videos that they wanted to post, but decided not to. Kat’s picture was a solo shot, Tara’s was a picture edited with the Huji app, and Lexi didn’t want to annoy people with pictures of her dog. When we asked these users “What would motivate you to post these pictures?”, we received these responses...
1. If there were no likes and no comments
2. If we have the ability to set the photo to private, so it is still on your feed but only you can see it.
3. Guarantee that you would receive a certain amount of likes
4. Forced to post the picture right when you take it to avoid overthinking the post.
The other users favored all the other motivations that were not their own. Now that Instagram just got rid of likes on their app, we will have to get a little more creative!
