FEEDBACK
Week 6
- ensure your choice of persona group is justified by solid research - why did you choose the persona group? based on what research it is relevant to your target group, in case your clients are asking why you need to be able to answer with your justifications supported with actual research.
 
Week 7 
- questions are irrelevant to what you are supposed to do, your job is not to create new services, apps for wayangmind but identify what people need and how wayangmind will help them
- dont redesign their logo/branding
- develop your how might we questions based on your findings, emphatise and understand what they need
 
Week 9
-  Conclude and categorise your findings according to your data summary
- Avoid slides that are too wordy, should your audience be able to read everything off your slides? it should be you presenting the facts
 
Week 10
- the persons group of retired travellers is not clear which questions where to vacation travelers fall into
- overall slides and direction is not consistent
 
Week 11
- learn to emphatise by putting yourself in the shoes of users, what do you expect and want, even without customers saying out what they need, the discovery phase is crucial in keeping customers to stay in the app or loyal to the brand.
- if you have an app, what makes them want to keep the app even though they wont be able to use it at places besides the airport? what other functions or features are offered. the app should serve more function than just booking a session.
 
Week 12
- refine touchpoint and start working on your tasks based on the gantt chart 
 
Week 13
- overall design is not very consistent, putting all the works in an overview gives you a view of the overall style the designs are supposed to be

WEEKLY REFLECTION
Week 3
To kick start our project on wayangmind, our first step was to conduct a detailed research by exploring 
the EDT website and other existing platforms to better understand wayangmind itself and learning its 
possible advantages it can offer and potential disadvantages in relation to our target audience, travelers. 
Being mainly in charge of researching on existing competitors in the industry, there were plenty of 
competitors that offered the same services and possibly better but a factor that stood out was that most do not particularly target travelers but the general public which i strongly believe is where wayangmind 
comes in to assist travelers to help with flight-related stress and anxiety. Throughout my research study on wayangmind, it was interesting to explore many different existing platforms or tools accessible at our own 
time and place including the different types of services offered such as VR painting, guided meditation 
sessions, etc. It helped me in terms of what can be incorporated into wayangmind and what they can do 
better than their competitors to enhance user experience.
 
Week 4
While my group members focused on working on the persona groups based on our target audience, I 
assisted in conducting additional research to support the justification of our persona groups, why 
wayangmind would “help” them as travellers, how their demographics is relevant, purpose of travel and 
the potential challenges faced by the persona group when using wayangmind. Throughout this week’s 
progress, I learned that despite the topic of discussion regardless if we are creating a profile for persona 
groups, it is crucial to have solid evidence through research studies to justify the reason for choosing a 
demographic group relating to our project to provide a clear and valid fact to our client. Moving forward, 
this would definitely help in executing a well-planned project to future clients that is supported with solid 
evidence and facts to decisions made for the project.
 
Week 5
We had the opportunity to visit the wayangmind office in person to understand better what wayangmind 
is about and even the chance to test out their VR sessions that consist of different modules to choose 
from. We were able to see through an entire session along with visuals, audio and hands-on experience 
of the entire session itself. Through this meetup we learned that wayangmind consists of 3 platforms with 
some that are still underdevelopment and not officially launched, it all connects to each other to further enhance user experience that includes an app, VR console and an immersive space. It was a really 
interactive and fun experience to be there in person to understand wayangmind’s services as a detailed 
briefing and QnA session by the creators themselves. A key takeaway from this visit was that we were to gain an in-depth understanding that will really help in progressing forward our project on wayangmind.
 
Week 6
Once our persona groups were set, we worked on drafting the questions for both survey and interview 
questions where the survey focuses on the general public to gather more information whereas the 
interview is focused on 2 interviewees per group. Assisting in drafting the survey and interview questions, 
it was crucial to stand in the view of users using the 4Ws 1H to consider each factor that could be a 
possibility. Whilst working on the questions to include in both the survey and interview, it has taught me 
the importance of empathising with users, what would they want with or without having them to voice 
out their needs when using a product because it plays an important role in the user's first impression to a 
product or service.  Learning the importance of empathising would allow me to carry forward myself 
both professionally and individually in empathising with others and understand the needs and wants of 
others even better.

 

Week 7

Once our data collection has achieved the sufficient amount of responses and interviewees, our group 

worked together to compile and summarise our findings into relevant categories and brought into our 

insights discovery in our miro board to develop our How Might We (HMW) questions. Throughout our 

progress in developing our HMW questions, Mr Mike emphasized on the factor of empathising to users 

as we work on our project which was a great pointers where I learned that creating something that stands 

in the perspective as a consumer allows us to understand what it takes for users to continue using a service 

or product from their first impression, ui, and even post-updates after using a certain service/product. It 

was an insightful feedback session from Mr Mike which allows me to carry forward an important lesson 

into future projects as a designer/creator to produce a better and successful result. 

 

Week 9

For this week, we mainly focused on working on our presentation slides that will be presented to our 

client. Based on our notes in the miro board, I was responsible to work on the persona and data collection slides. According to my understanding of the respective sections in the miro board, the key points are 

brought into the slides with clear and short points along with suitable visual elements and arrangements 

to ensure audiences understand each section of the slides. Apart from that, our group also focused on 

refining our How Might We questions based on the feedback provided by Mr Mike. Through this week’s 

progression on our project, I learned the importance of highlighting and extracting important information 

into presentation slides professionally on what is necessary and necessary while considering the 

elaboration that will be presented during our proposal presentation. This lesson would benefit me in the future by allowing me to ensure a solid understanding on the project and even executing a presentation of 

a project individually or even as a team.

 

Week 10

Reflecting on our progress this week, we presented our proposal to our client and have gotten valuable 

feedback that would benefit us to achieve even better results for this project. Through the feedback given, 

the importance of consistency in our design and moodboard is crucial in representing our proposed idea 

towards wayangmind with it being able to reflect the brand and its purpose clearly. Understanding the 

competitors was also important the brand position wayangmind as well as emphasizing on its benefits in 

comparison to competitor brands. Through this week’s session, I learned that it is important to stress on 

every detail and carefully consider  “what if” questions and the importance of a well-structured plan 

which reflects a strong understanding and ensures a smooth planning to progress further. This would 

greatly benefit in the future in terms of ensuring a good and clear planning of each project.

 

Week 11 

Based on our feedback, we proceeded to work on our customer journey map and final touchpoint of the 

project. As listed out in the gantt chart created by the group leader, tasks were assigned to us 

individually. Before working on the tasks assigned, I focused on understanding the visual elements to be 

included in the materials from the style guide of our project (moodboard, color scheme, graphical 

elements, images, sample posters done by group members) and also existing social media contents that 

were uploaded on wayangmind’s social platforms which I strongly believe assisted me in reflecting an 

even clear and direct representation of wayangmind’s branding and its purpose. Throughout this process, 

I learned that it is important to have a good base understanding on projects we are working on and what 

represents the brand/name/project itself in order to execute a design that reflects its message. Hence, 

moving forward even as a student or in the professional field in the future, this would allow me to apply 

this knowledge and trait working on any project to produce the best possible outcome.

 

Week 12

Moving onto the final phase of our project, we were given feedback on the final touchpoints in the point 

of view of a consumer/user to gain a deeper understanding on details that makes all the difference in 

improving the user's experience. Our team divided our tasks based on the gantt chart laid out by our 

leader. I am tasked with the design aspect of this final phase which includes designing and creating 

marketing materials for the social media push, led billboards and an instagram post of the services wayangmind offers. It was a fulfilling task as I work on the designs and creating materials that best 

represent the brand and its purpose. Throughout completing my task of this project, I learned that it is 

crucial in understanding the brand and its purpose as the elements in the designs should reflect the 

brand itself including its colors, graphical elements and so on. This learning outcome would highly 

benefit me whenever carrying out any design project in terms of understanding the purpose of my design, 

who it is designed for and other elements and factors that goes into designing.

 

Week 13  

As we are close to wrapping up our progress before our final presentation, we worked on refining 

and polishing our projects to ensure consistency and clarity of our purpose and goal whilst carrying out our

responsibilities individually as a team to deliver and achieve a successful outcome. Throughout this week, 

I learned that consistency is not only important throughout this project but also the details throughout our 

project in being able to present a professional proposal to our client in order to clearly showcase the 

highlights and keypoints of our presentation.

 

Week 14

Concluding our project, it was truly an eventful journey alongside my group mates working together to achieve the same goal. For this week's progression, we focused on concluding our proposal and preparing for our final presentation with wayangmind. I mainly worked on the materials that we got feedback from Mr Mike and it was an enjoyable process to trial and error different design choices to achieve the best outcome of it. I learned that it is always important to trust the process and gradually work with my projects along the flow. It is also important to trust myself as well as my group mates to go through the process of working on a design work. I believe this will help me carry out future projects with more confidence and trust in not only myself but also my team.
