As part of my first term at the Royal College of Art, I created six responses to microbriefs in one week sprints. The briefs were assigned on a Monday and due the following Monday, and were kept vague enough that exploration was encouraged. For each week, I wanted to challenge myself to learn or refine a skill I hadn't before, for example, stop motion animation, After Effects, or wax experimentation.
These projects show my flexibility and creativity in responding to time pressure and also my ability to learn and adapt quickly on new skills and programs. I was able to crystallize on a five-day capsule for responding to a challenge with what I call an 80% polished product. That final 20% of completion might take further iterations perfect, but in a workweek, I can get 80% of the way there. My design process was as follows:
