Week Three

In week three of The Big Agency, my team performed our group presentation on “TechForGood” despite it being a last-minute job! As a group, our initial idea was to take on the Manchester City project as we are all football lovers and are familiar with the business; however, after getting halfway through the practice pitch we realised there was little room for improvement since Manchester City already successfully utilises its social media platforms and has a large international fan base. As a result, we collectively decided to change our project last minute to the “TechforGood” campaign that we felt held more scope for innovation. We emailed Mark and Bex to let them know of our change and prepared the speech the night before. Surprisingly, our pitch was a success and Mark credited us on how well put-together it was considering the circumstances. Upon reflection, I believe I need to improve my public speaking and confidence. Next week we will be given feedback from our presentations.

Week Four

In week four of the big agency, we received feedback on our presentations from the previous week. From the feedback we began to understand what we had done well; working well together, clear slides, good Q&A etc. and what we needed to improve on such as presentation skills, less text on screen and being more concise with our ideas. Our positive feedback meant that we were the team chosen to represent Reason Digital. We then arranged a meeting with Reason Digital at their office in Northern Quarter on Monday the 24 th in order to get a greater understanding of what the company wants from us.

Week 18: Assignment 2

In week 18 of The Big Agency we went over the brief for assignment two. This assignment requires us to produce a Creative Group Video summarising key points; I will reflect on this process in my later blog posts. We are also required to use reflective theory in order to demonstrate our professional development. I have written an example below; When working on our Brand Management assignment, Yousaf was delegated the task of drawing logo ideas whilst I typed up key theory we could use and justify our logo choices. Whilst I was typing, Yousaf was suggesting new ideas that I blankly ignored as I was trying to focus on typing up my research. I noticed that through disregarding Yousaf's remarks I had demoralised him and as a result he was not motivated to continue his work. I then immediately brought focus back to his work and praised him for the work he had contributed - as a result he continued to develop more ideas. From this experience and reflecting in action (Schon, 1991) I was
