Today we did the presentation for HOME. My group went first, which is usually the worst time to do the presentation, this is because we hadn't seen the other groups to see how they spoke etc, as well as it make us all feel more nervous than if we had gone second or last.
Overall, I think that the presentation went okay, we did not have too much confidence in our prototype which meant we weren't as enthusiastic as we could have been. Also since we spent so much time making the prototype and not rehearsing the presentation, I noticed some things that seemed to be wrong with the presentation, such as the drawings should have been sooner in the presentation, there was no sound when we showed the video which meant it was quite awkward as nobody was talking through the presentation too. Also, as we did not have enough time to rehearse the presentation it meant that we did not know who was going to speak for which pages, so for some slides we all leaned back onto Glenn to speak, I suggested last week that we assign the slides to different people, and I decided upon the ones I was going to speak for, but nobody else did, which is what caused this issue.
I think that due to Glenn being quite an enthusiastic person with presentations, we tend to leave him to speak. Which is a bad habit to get into, as it could lower our individual marks for the presentation.
We are not getting feedback from Mike until after we have handed in our work, which is a shame as it would have been useful to blog about.
After the presentation we spoke to Mike as a group. He said that he thought we did well, however we could use a couple more weeks to get the prototype to be perfected, which we all agreed with, as if you look at home long we were working on this version of the prototype it just over a week.
After watching the other groups presentations, I was quite happy with what we produced. This is because the other groups both had similar concepts, such as the apps, they were almost identical. I felt that we did well in the small time frame that we had, especially with this being such a difficult brief.

This is the feedback from HOME that I could remember.
They liked the concept but need a better call to action. She liked the statistics and that we put visuals with it. They liked the Starbucks cups. They said we focused on the brief. They liked the statistics a lot and found them very visually impactful.
