today was a day where I arrange a call with a peer from my brief group to have a discussion about our ideas to help each other and felt I was having a design box and was very stuck being someone to talk with my ideas and see if they made sense, in this 30 minute call with Fiona we talked about my concept and my deliverable that come from the idea as I felt through the last week I’ve confused myself with many different people comments. Fiona advice was so useful it helped me untangle my confused brain and change some ideas for the best, one of the best advice Fiona gave me was to ” simplify” everything don’t think tooo deep about everything as that’s when the confused thoughts come along.
while on the call I change my idea of using a digital scanner as the box to include more links to information this meant I would cut out the idea of an app in my campaign, as my brain as given too many ideas in a small amount of time this help take away stress from me. IIn the talk we always discussed about my concept idea being more personal and enaging type of design e.g change my gmae idea into cards where people can write something or draw on them all linking back into the box to bring more postivey.
taking this time to speak a peer that’s got thew same brief was very helpful as it helped me to clear my points but also clear up any confusion while I struggle with this brief, having dome to speak to about ideas also helps me to develop my skills with commutating with other but also making my ideas easy to communicate as I’ve always struggling with pitching my ideas in simple format.

Today’s devleopement was very big, I had a tutorial call with David my head of year in University the first time in this brief I knew I was behind with my designs because I’ve been so confused with my own ideas and lost that I haven’t done them but I did want to speak to him to make sure I was on the right path. While speaking to David he like my quote of “take 5” as this very catchy phrase but also a something that’s imporant to do. david mentoined that my concept idea shoould focus more on the 5 ideas e.g give 5 benfits , give 5 actives to do spare time , change colours ot five link my whole idea to the idea of 5 things this has a meaning and idea linking the project toghter.
The concept of the packaging works very well to get people to engage with art artives that’s in the box but also outside and try to use 5 mins to improve their health but also to gain the information side of the cmapgin of health and art and benefits, this is seen as the science so having a mixture of stuff in the box will benefit the staff and their knowledge ready for them to push the idea.
Another point David mentioned is that I could make my colours ideas and my game active it can a card where I put on the top of the card ” write 5 positives about .. ” or draw 5 object with the colour shapes this idea links to people using 5 minutes of their time but also linking them to take part in something to improve their health slowly.
thinking on the concept of take 5 theres a lot of thing I can do with this idea e.g in my design I could use the most powerful information points in my design to get across a stronger message to the audience to gain awareness that. they need. I could also link the 5 ideas to making 5 outcomes in the box, by having 5 things in a box that a mixture engaging designs but also information science based the audience will have enough knowledge out the box but also benefit from taking the 5 minutes by reading the information or taking part, having too much in the box will be too busy and make people not want to look into it .
