Throughout this module I have tried to work on briefs that I feel will help me in the future, and also explored lots of different types of live briefs in order to gain a better understanding of where my strengths lay. My main Big Kahuna brief was the most important to me, as I will be going into children's book publishing in the future, so that was vital for developing my skills, as I had never illustrated a book cover before. I am very interested in mental health and how I can use illustration to combat stigma around that and other feminist issues.
I feel as though I should have worked on less briefs, but expanded more on the briefs that I already had. I don't think I gained a lot from the small live briefs that I worked on, and should have spent my time working on one large body of work instead of lots of small ones.
Aside from this I think I have gained a lot of good quality portfolio work, which is in part down to the small briefs that I undertook, because they were just quick fast paced briefs that I could create something I liked for, without it having too much research behind it.
If I were to do this module again I would focus my intentions more at the start and work on fewer briefs but to a larger capacity with more finished professional quality outcomes.
