For this project within our group we decided at the beginning to organise rolls and duties of each member. In the first week of the group we had a session meet up on the Wednesday to decide between us who was going to do what roll and discuss what we were all good at and what we could contribute to the team. At this meeting I mention that I had Graphic Design and had previously done a course on. In this course I had done a few projects with companies and branding that was successful so I knew that this would come in handy for this project. I also showed the group some of the artwork I had made in a vector style of people and animals and some previous websites in-case this could be relevant to our project outcomes.
After this meeting it was decided that my role would be primarily graphic design based as this was my speciality area and that I would be assigned to help create things such as logos, advertisements and packaging. This meant that my first task for the group would be to create a logo for us to use throughout the project and be the brand identifier. I also helped to decide on the colour scheme for the business and always provided different options for each of my designs for my group to decide on collectively. Ultimately any designs I made were unanimously chosen by the group to be the ones that I continued to develop to make sure that the whole group was happy with what had been created and chosen, we did this for all elements of the business so it meant that we could work individually but come together to discuss work and make sure everyone liked what was being made. My role was in my eyes important to the group and I was able to play to my strengths and work doing what I am good at. This I think will be helpful in making a professional outcome for the project as I am able to work on things I have a lot of knowledge and experience on.
I think that the role I was given in the group is a good fit for me because of my experience in the field and it is something that I looked forward to working on for this group.
