Overall this brief was very interesting we got to explore the power of graphic design in a fun and engaging manner by trying to convince others of a lie. The group collaboration throughout this project went really well as everyone was involved in the idea generation and development process. This allowed the designs to be produced quickly to maximise engagement with the signup sheets. The week-long time frame for this brief initially seemed difficult as we needed enough time for people to engage. However due to the successful group dynamic of this collaboration, the final outcome was produced quickly and easily, allowing for a few days for interaction. However throughout the brief many students within the university became aware of the brief making people cautious to sign up to new workshop or events posted around the university. This limited the engagement we received however we gathered some sign-ups which indicated the designs where successfully authentic and represented those that would naturally be seen around the university. Ethical considerations where made and all those who signed up and provided student email address were contacted and informed that the workshop created was fake and that there personal details/email wouldn't be used for anything. Overall this brief was very enjoyable as it was interesting to use my design skills for a less traditional application.
