Today we pitched our idea as a group for the 'communication is a virus' brief, we made 3 boards to show our idea, one for the concept, one for the content and the other for method of delivery. The pitch went well, we were told that the presentation boards themselves could be altered in terms of their design.
The main points made from the crit were:
- If we are trying to get people to give more then for our research we need to take part in an activity that is about giving, for example i am going to give blood and we could take something to a charity shop just as evidence that it is easy to give and to show that if we can do it then so can everyone else.
- We should look at the current market and try and approach our idea in a fresh, original way.
- We should look at free cycle and Leeds volunteering websites to research other ways of giving.
- We could look at the time it takes to 'give', for example how long does it take to give blood and try and tech people that if you have a spare hour what could you do in that time that would help someone else.
- We need to find out how many students give already (what and how much), what would make them give more.
- Following the crit we discussed ideas and what we need to do next, we made a list of things we could/ need to research and then split this into manageable do to lists, so we each had an allocated job to do over the weekend.
I am going to research giving blood and donating organs and i will also research how many charity shops there are in Leeds and where they are.
