PROCESS
Week 10
For task 4, our workload is not as much as it was last
because we are in the finalizing stage. We rely on
feedback from TBS and Miss Lilian. Based on the
information I received, TBS was quite satisfied with our
work and gave positive feedback. During the tutorial, Miss
Lilian gave some feedback. One of them is for us to
improve our oat graphics so that they can connect with the
rest of our deliverables.
Figure 1.1 Comparison between the old oat
illustration and the new one
From the comparison we can see, that the old design style looks more firm
and sharp while the new style looks more rounded. Here is the packaging
design with the new oat illustration.

In addition to oat illustrations, we also receive feedback to align the style of our mascot gifs. So Javin improved the line art of the previous mascot to be more similar to our mascot design. The following is a comparison.

As additional deliverables, one of our members made a design for the
cooler bag and here is how it looks.

In week 11, we started working on the final presentation slide. Like
the previous tasks, we worked on our presentation using Canva. We move
and compile all our work into a presentation. We went from the draft
stage to our final design.

REFLECTIONS
Experience
Finally, this module has been completed. Some things have been passed but one thing I am very proud of myself for is that I managed to overcome my fear at the beginning of the module where I was afraid of not being able to work with new people. I'm glad I got a lot of new things and experiences while doing this module. I also love being able to work alongside my group mates. I am very grateful that they did not isolate me because I am a new member who just joined in the second week, but they are very welcoming and want to brief me about the project we will be working on. They were very cooperative and I didn't sense any sense of judging from them. I would also like to thank Miss Lilian for giving her a lot of helpful feedback.
Observation
I came to better understand the different ways of working with different individuals. I learned that we don't have to be afraid of new things because everything has a way as long as we are willing to do it. I also consider it important to be able to remind each other when there are things to do, some people need to be micro-managed and some remain ignorant. There are diverse behaviors when it comes to a group project.
Findings
Last Meeting with all of the Group (Presentation Day)
I found that when we manage to communicate well with our clients, the end result will definitely be satisfying. Although there were differences of opinion and views, discussing is one way to handle it. On our project, despite differences of opinion, we managed to achieve what both parties wanted. In the end, the results are equally satisfying in our eyes, the design team, and in their eyes, TBS.
