below are a number of comments i found intresting and educational to my project. i aim to have a body of work to be presented as a pitch! these will help me make that end presentation.
Filling your sketch pad full of quick ideas can often lead to one perfect solution and it’s this idea that I focus on presenting.
Some things need to be physical to present or review. Especially in packaging. Whenever possible try to capture a way to show any 3-d objects digitally or by mockups and photographs for reference.
Only present the solutions that you know answer the brief to the best of your abilities.
It’s important to remember that you’re designing for client preferences and not your own. Presentations will often lead to some degree of criticism or disagreement. Take this as a positive experience and an opportunity to build on your ideas. I find that a client’s input, following a presentation, does in fact lead to far better solutions regardless of whether I initially disagreed with their opinion. Listen to their concerns and express your thoughts in a polite way, don’t be defensive but plead your case with insight and enthusiasm.
My advice would be to only show your very best designs and keep it to a reasonable number. This I’ve learned from experience. More choice often leads to poor decisions.
Always have an opinion as the designer. It’s your job. Just be sure your opinion is separate from personal likes & loves and is what works best for the project & client’s main goals. The client can disagree later, all part of the process.
If you’re e-mailing your work make sure that you include plenty of detail, sufficient rationalisation and a description of your process.
Aim to present your ideas to your client face to face, passion and enthusiasm can often be far more powerful and compelling than your actual work.
because im wanting to use this brief as a practise to picth my concepts/ideas to clients or who ever it concerns. from the above information iv gained its given me the idea to also make a digital presentation with fully detailed proccess. becuase i might be asked to email things not just face to face presentation.
