4.1

Today was our first interim critique in which we shared 4 of our A3 concepts to a group of 7 using the thinking hats. Our group didn't fully use the hats to the best of our ability however we did all critique the work of everyone fairly and handed out advice on what we thought was working and what wasn't. 
This critique was great as I got feedback on my work after being stuck in a somewhat rut and it helped me prepare for beginning to develop my posters moving forward from idea generation.
I also enjoyed giving other people advice on their work and giving suggestions because it got my mind working for developing work rather than creating ideas. When giving other people advice it is great because you have never seen it before so it really is first impressions on what you think of the poster. I saw other peoples ideas on voting and it somewhat made me wish I was doing that instead of social media!
