that's pants evaluation

EVALUATION 
(group)
- We all got along, and worked together well as a group; had quite similar ideas of what we should do and how it should look
- All had a fair contribution to the work load
- We capitalised on each of our strengths
- We were quite indecisive in the beginning and couldn't decide on a topic that would work well for the brief; but once we settled on 'bad packaging' our idea generation went well.

- We should have been more efficient with giving out specific roles to each member of the group, rather than doing everything together
- We were unorganised in the sense that we didn't arrange a print session for the finished A2 poster, thought the print room was closed on the friday we planned to print; we should have organised one of use to come in earlier on the monday to print it out. 
- There were times when members of the group were ill so we fell behind schedule slightly.
- We had trouble with the software for the gif which meant it took a lot longer than we expected
- Should have spent longer on the poster

(individual)
- I think the collaboration went well, as we all got the work done in time without much disagreement (except the poster being printed out in time), and we were pleased with how the gif turned out.

- In terms of visual skills, I helped out a lot with the compositioning of the photos for the gif, making sure everything was in shot. I didn't feel I could add much to the making of the gif as I hadn't made one before but I now know how to make one so can use that skill for future use.

- For non-visual skills, I did a lot of research for the project, looking at facts and statistics about bad packaging which gave us more of a background to the topic, more of a reason as to why we were doing this issue. And then later when coming up with what should be written on the poster.

- We didn't assign any specific roles for the project, and worked together for a lot of it instead which I think slowed us down slightly. But in terms of what I did most, was the research and background information for the project.

- Found it interesting to see how all our different ideas worked together, it made me think more about responsibilities involved in projects and what needs to be done - and how important organisation is when you are working with a group of people.

- If I was to collaborate again, I would probably make sure there were more defined roles for the group members as it would make the production of work more efficient.
