Blog11: My Favorite Design Video



"Design is like a tool, it is a medium used to construct things, It constantly shapes society."

During our class this week, we were able to watch all the different two minute video clips that the students put together over the past few weeks. Although they were all done very well, a few of the videos stood out as surprisingly more creative and effective.
Jenn Bobbett's video was one of the more interesting ones that we were able to watch this week. Her video had both a good amount of useful information, and a well filmed and edited video to back it up. The use of blueprint paper in a red tool chest was a great way to get across the idea of design being a process that is thought through and planned out carefully. Jenn clearly identified the base of her design theory by also  using the specific environments she was in to get across how people such as interior designers view a project. One of the focuses of her design theory video was the use of examples to get her idea across. This works well, as we are all visual thinkers and more quickly understand images and real objects.
Overall, the class videos have been quite interesting and thought provoking. There will be more to come next week as it is our final week and we get to watch the second half the classes two minute videos.
