After creating our blogs and starting out initial research, we had our second Product Design Project lesson which entailed:
12th Oct 2015: Timetabled sessions start for Car People Project with MMU teaching team. Review of the project deliverables, Q & A session with MMU teaching team
In this lesson we went over different subject areas to look at over the automotive design spectrum as well as safety laws that need to be considered if our project leads us to interior design i.e. H-Point. Mike emphasised getting involved in a lot of primary research such as handing out questionnaires, visiting dealerships, contacting experts and so on to help us with the task we had for the following week of a pin up session of the research we've gathered so far.
This week I will be basically continuing my research a bit more extensively:

This week I will be basically continuing my research a bit more extensively:
- Email automotive experts
- Email environmental groups on the carbon footprint cars leave
- Look at automotive blogs listed in the PowerPoint
- Visit dealerships or car garages and speak to people
- Send out more of my questions
- Ask more people my initial question
- Create a few mood boards of automotive feature subject areas I am interested in
