Preparing usability testing

I got quite a lot e cards designs sketched in my sketch book with week but I did have a problem sticking to the contemporary theme. Also not been able to use religious ideas or traditional things I associate with Christmas, even though they we asked to do a Christmas e card they didn’t want it to have hardly anything to do with Christmas. It seemly like anything you do will somehow offend someone.

I didn’t get many designs on the computer but that was because I felt like they were appropriate for the design brief. Also my experience with Illustrator is basic, so I didn’t know how to do a lot of things I wanted to do, but with some help I got a design done and you could tell what it was meant to be so I was happy with it.

This week I have the presentation for the design icon. I wouldn’t say I have a big interest in phone boxes but I am looking forward to doing the presentation. I like researching the topics for presentations and make the presentation, it’s just the presenting I am not good at but at least I am getting better at it.

This week I am preparing the usability testing. When I did the summer assignment and we had to learn about usability testing, I found it quite interesting as it’s something different to what we normally do. So I am pleased I am getting to have a go at actually doing the testing.
