Thursday's "Fresh" E3 Diary.

Thursday

Today was the first day we done something productive. Each group had to borrow laptops and start on our Power Point presentation for the clients on Friday. I started on the presentation because I was itching to do something that didn't involve more "inspire boards" while the other girls in the group started doing life size drawings of the jacket and cap for our "School Uniform" brief. 

While doing the presentation, we quickly went over the jacket features and threw out more ideas, just to make it more realistic and easier for the client to see our point of view. I didn't feel comfortable going to the principal of the school and saying that we think it would be a good idea to have a full heating system in each coat so instead of a hot water bottle type heating, we decided to make the lining of the coat, cotton. This would be a much cheaper alternative and it would make the jacket much lighter in weight.

The only thing frustrating about today were the "zone leaders" telling us that we didn't have a lot of time to prepare these presentations and we couldn't sit around and do nothing, we just had to get on with it. Bearing in mind that we had spend three and a half days writing on Post-It notes, looking at inspire boards, moving from brief to brief and getting put in different groups because the number in people kept dropping so they needed to even us out to other briefs that we hadn't been put in at the start of the week.
