Today, was the first official Product 3a lecture of the new term. We were briefed on what we should have got up to over the Christmas period. The two things we were expected of us:
I met Steve after the briefing to have a talk about my new direction with the brief. From the research I gathered other the Christmas break in addition to my feasibility report, I feel like an educational toy or game would be the best way for a child to engage with the product and learn from it, which Steve agreed with, commenting that I could even have a working model by the end.
This week I will continuing sketching, on A3 rather than A4, in addition to following up on further research. I will also create a mood board or two on educational toys for impairments in communication already out there to see what is readily available and what the market is missing.
- an extensive amount of sketch work and ideation
- complete all the further research
