Life's A Pitch Evaluation

HOW DID WE WORK AS A GROUP?
> Had difficulties at the start, being such a large group (9 people). Decided it was best to split roles up and allow everyone to work on what they thought was a strength of their's, this way everyone would be more eager to contribute to the project. (Needed a way to encourage people to keep working on the project so no one slipped behind).
> Once we had roles decided it was easier for the work to start being made.
- After some rearrangements in other groups Danielle moved to a different group.
> Myself, Peggy and Georgia were on logistic and budgeting.
- I think we worked really well as a sub group. It was easy to divide roles, everyone was really engaged with the project in making it work in the real world.
- Where we struggled was budgeting, I think this could've been explained more clearly in the presentation, but this was only a slight hiccup.
- As a sub team we didn't need to delegate roles too much when figuring out the logistic as we worked on it together at the same time, everyone was on it with research etc. Where we did separate was when we were putting together the presentation otherwise it got too confusing. I made the presentation, Georgia wrote the script and Peggy helped the design team with their work.
> As a whole team our communication was clear, I felt like we all knew where each other was at in the development of the pitch.
- We met up frequently to regroup and see where everyone was. This allowed us to make decisions together and solve any problems anyone may have.

WHAT WENT WELL:
> We kept strong communication as a group and this allowed up to develop a good concept for the pitch that everyone was on board with.
> We were proactive in finding the best way to create an event that would allow us to achieve what we wanted. Talking to Searlait was a massive contribution to this, she provided a lot of insight to the area we were interested in.
> We were officiant with time keeping.
> Design board were easy to do as everyone was engaged with the project throughout.
> No one disliked the roles they were given, made sure everyone got on with it.
> The presentation went well, Peggy, Tasha and Georgia did a really good job. I think the interactive elements with the audience were nice.
> The idea was very considered and thought through, we were able to answer all questions asked in the pitch.

WHAT COULD BE IMPROVED?
> I think the visuals ended up being quite childish and I would've liked for the final product to look more sophisticated than it did. But I still really like our final result.
> We could've investigated more into the different ways we could have approached the idea if we had more time. Looking into places like Seagull Paints and the spaces they provide.
> In the pitch we could've made the budgeting more clear, we rearranged the slides to make the finances make more sense, however we could've been clearer in regards to which budget we would be using (the cheaper one).

WHAT DID I LEARN?
> I learnt a lot about team management and how I function in a team dynamic. I tend to want work to be made quickly, this wasn't an issue within our team as all the members were really good at communicating what they were going to do and when they were doing it.
> By looking outward into Leeds I realised there are a lot of creative opportunities missing within the city. Having the opportunity to work on improving this is really interesting and allowed us t approach design and creating in a new way.
> Talking to Searlait was really good too, it was beneficial to talk to someone who is so passionate about making more creative opportunities within the city. Her drive was evident from the conversation and I'd love to keep up communication with her.

OTHER THOUGHTS:
> It was really good to see other people's work in the class, think this should be something we do more often.
