Iterative Design at its best

I was a little apprehensive going into the "Feedback" session of our iImage first drafts. I felt pretty confident in mine. I knew that there was strong emotion behind making, so I felt I was doing an adequate job of creating a compelling image. However, I was a bit humbled after the process. I realized, like many time you work on something so long your eyes start crossing, that I had hit a plateau that didn't continue on ahead and felt I had nowhere else to go with the image. But in fact, by hearing the input of my professors and classmates, I realized quite quickly that there was a figurative bridge to where I wanted my iImage to go, it just took some guidance to recognize the path that led to it.

Having others share their first impressions definitely helped me realize what message I was getting across to them. Some of those messages I quickly realized were NOT the ideas I wanted coming from my iImage. Taking that information and using it to further create my product resulted with a product I'm even prouder of then when I first thought I was "done." One of the articles we read taught me that we're never DONE until we're SATISFIED, but SATISFACTION can be a temporary thing as well. Going back to relook at the specific goal trying to be reached has helped me improve my work immensely! :)

iImage accomplished. Bring on the iMovie!
