OUGD602 - Personal Branding and Promotion - Evaluation

This module has given a much more knowledge in areas of interest for after graduation . When approaching Alete couture & Euphoria events I noticed I had a keen motive in creating a strong business plan, setting out tasks in order to move forward. Starting something with a friend out side of uni became an exciting experience for me. It brought out the best, allowing us to take that extra mile to have a unique concept. This module has proved effective in having an understanding of how you approach the starting of a business. Recognising costs, loans and profits made within the business. 

When approaching the creative report I came to some difficulty because my interests weren't the same as others on the course, to the point of leaving it till last minute.

During this module I’ve learnt a lot about myself especially in having an understanding of what skills I’ve improved on from the first year. PPP has allowed me to come out my comfort zone when exploring my particular style and finally understand what I want to persue after graduationg. In comparison to the first year my preparation, confidence & time management has improved massively. For in the first year my anxiety when doing presentations was unbearable. But being more prepared having an efficient amount of work to talk about has given me a better attitude when approaching the presentation. I’ve realised the areas which need improvement such as, engaging more within the industry, attending more presentations like ‘Future Rising’ Most of all this module has given me the confidence in my work, enabling me to seek client work,
