Crits this time round involved short presentations of concepts. I presented mine putting emphasis on ideas that I felt were stronger. Looking closer into my ideas the group came to the conclusion that I had been over complicating some drawings - attempting to put to much into one image there fore confusing it. Regardless of my efforts the group picked a variety of ideas that I felt were not all necessarily strongest in their fields - being to obvious for my liking. Nether the less I went with their decision to draw a group of people held together in a band as image as communication, a band of brothers in some form of stand off as type and image and metal music font as type as image. My peers suggested that I increase the scale of my roughs before attempting to complete the finals.
Self Evaluation
So far I have been strongly challenged as type it not something I've ever had prolonged experience with and I am by no means a graphic designer. The ideas that I have visualised are somewhat varied and possibly limited however following the crits I am happy to take my peers advice and develop the roughs they thought matched the brief best.
From here I intend to further develop my roughs and experiment with different applications of colour before crafting my resolved illustrations.
