This year my aims for PPP was to establish my identity and self branding for going forward into the professional industry. I feel that I was successful with creating branding that best represents me as a designer. I also used this module to document me interacting with other creatives. Going to Amsterdam to interview creatives was a highlight to this module because I learnt a lot and now feel like I have connections I can go back and talk to in the future. PPP also has helped me with my confidence making me a lot more confident with my presenting skills to the point where I now consider it one of my strong points. Within this project I experimented with trying to be different from others by creating mini books instead of business cards and being more hands on with my creations. This was an aim to make myself stand out as well as represent my interests. This year I worked more on my online presence which I felt really benefited my practice as I was able to promoted my projects and be inspired by others. I also found it easier to connect with creatives I thought I would never be able to talk to. There were some challenges with receiving replies but when I started to introduce my little contact books I received some replies. Also within this module I was able to document my journey of getting my placement. I would have liked to do my placement during the course however this was not able to happen due to the placement only occurring during summer and being over 2 months long. I am excited to be able to design more work that will be bought and used in a special needs and disability setting. Overall this module has been very beneficial to my practice.
