Pitch 2 - 27/10/15

Design in the 20th Century - Graphic Design 

For this pitch, we have been given a brief to present an online exhibition entitled Design in the 20th century; we have been also given a range of choices of what type of design, in which we chose graphic design. We then researched both historical and contemporary art and have identified the key trends of these. Our key trends consisted of Russian propagandas, the art movement 'de stijl', 20th century music and Japanese culture, all of which we divided the trends so we would research on it and present each theme individually. We were also assigned to know and present the copyright and ownership rights costings of these artworks for it to be able to be presented in our online exhibition, in which we have gathered from using sources such as photo libraries e.g. Getty images and from Museum websites. 

Learning from our previous pitch, I was more prepared and confident with this pitch as I have rehearsed better with this pitch. Also, after the pitch we were told that the brief was intentionally written blandly and not in detail, the reason for this was to prepare us because we may come across that situation with clients when we are out in the real world. I felt that, that was very helpful for us and made us think outside the box and widening our understanding of the brief by also impressing our clients. Overall, I think that the pitch went well and I believe that the more we do it, the better we get in terms of pitching.
