A Reflection of My First Time Working With A Client
By Lucas Tam
Have you ever know how it felt design something for someone? Around a month ago I finished making a toy for a client. We were making these because these kids may have not been as wealthy as other families. This is important because making stuff specially designed for them, could really mean a lot to your client. You should listen to me because if you got something that really was special to you, how would you feel? Now, I will talk about the pros and cons of the project, the background of the project, and the solutions I found.
First of all, I will talk about what went well with the project. One thing that went well was painting. I did not have much difficulty or problems when I was painting. Another step that went well was when we wrapped our boxes with string/ But, there were some things that went badly. First, making the box. I kept on messing up and not being careful at all. Another problem was drawing my toy on paper. I am not the most gifted in drawing so I am usually pretty sloppy or messy.
But there are also solutions to help fix these problems. The first solution is about making the box. I probably should've worked faster and more carefully. I had trouble listening and if I did pay attention a little more, the project could of gone smoother. The second solution is for drawing my toy. I could of tried to do it slowly because when I do stuff slowly my work is better. But, this may not work because I am just naturally bad at drawing.
Finally, I will talk about the background of the project. We made these toys for 4th or 5th graders from Daguang Elementary. The kids in this school are not as wealthy as other kids in Taiwan. So we wanted to make them feel happy. The process took a long time and my client was also very hard to communicate with. But, we are giving to others and that would make you happy.
All in all, the project was successful. Maybe I will learn after talking about the pros and cons of the project, the background of the project, and the solutions I found. My classmates and I should be more serious next time we work on something like this. You should give to the people or your family. Maybe get them something that really means a lot. Now that I know how it feels to design something for someone, I feel like I am Santa.
我第一次與客戶合作的反思
和其他家庭一樣。這很重要，因為為他們專門設計的東西對你的客戶來說真的很重要。你應該聽我的，因為如果你得到了對你來說真的很特別的東西，你會有什麼感覺？現在，我將談談該項目的利弊，項目的背景以及我找到的解決方案。
首先，我將談談該項目進展順利的地方。進展順利的一件事是繪畫。我畫的時候沒有太大的困難和問題。另一個進展順利的步驟是當我們用繩子包裹我們的盒子時/但是，有些事情進展得很糟糕。首先，製作盒子。我一直在搞砸，一點也不小心。另一個問題是在紙上畫我的玩具。我在繪畫方面不是最有天賦的，所以我通常很草率或凌亂。
但也有一些解決方案可以幫助解決這些問題。第一個解決方案是製作盒子。我可能應該更快更仔細地工作。我很難聽，如果我多注意一點，項目可能會更順利。第二種解決方案是繪製我的玩具。我可以嘗試慢慢地做，因為當我慢慢地做事時，我的工作會更好。但是，這可能行不通，因為我天生不擅長畫畫。
最後說一下項目的背景。我們為大光小學的四年級或五年級學生製作了這些玩具。這所學校的孩子不像台灣其他孩子那麼有錢。所以我們想讓他們感到快樂。這個過程花了很長時間，我的客戶也很難與我溝通。但是，我們正在給別人，這會讓你開心。
總而言之，這個項目是成功的。也許我會在談論項目的利弊，項目的背景以及我找到的解決方案之後了解。下次我們做這樣的事情時，我和我的同學應該更加認真。你應該給人們或你的家人。也許給他們一些真正意義重大的東西。現在我知道為某人設計東西的感覺，我覺得我是聖誕老人。
