This week in DSGN 341 we focused on the beginning steps of prototyping. We tried different methods like acting them out, drawing them and also creating very simple mock ups with the supplies we had in the room.
I find this portion of the project to be most difficult for me personally. I lack the physical and creative skills. In relation to the real world and my career, I aim to be a Product Line Manager. I know that these skills I am learning and perfecting will help me better understand the design process and prototyping building stages that the creative designer go through out.
