REFLACTIONS

Experiences: The course of typesetting is a new challenge for me, because I have never tried to use Adobe Illustrator for font design, text typesetting and stickers for communication before this course. All the learning content makes me feel very novel. At the same time, I was not familiar with Adobe Illustrator tools, which made it very difficult for me to finish my homework in the last few weeks. My tutor Mr. Vinod's gave me a lot of help, he instructed me how to make personal electronic portfolio, for which I am very grateful. 

Observations: Alone I enjoy the feeling of a task, it makes me very enjoy, but sometimes I'll because there is no inspiration, or the results are not up to expectations and felt very depressed, this let me the process of stagnation, mentors and friends at this time will be encouraged me to continue to finish my work, and give me some advice, sometimes hear their Suggestions I'll bliss, I really appreciate their help to me. 

Findings: I have learned a lot about design inspiration and the use of Adobe Illustrator tools, which will become my wealth in future design. At the same time, I also gained good teachers and classmates, who helped me a lot on my way to study. Without them, I would not have finished the course smoothly. Meanwhile, I also appreciated my efforts and often finished the task late at night.

I started this project by binge-watching multiple videos from the pasta Granny and decided to make this video on how to make flake bread. Flatbread is found all over Italy, and Enrica shares her recipe for "crostoli" (it's plural and singular is crostolo) here. Lard is a key ingredient, and the way it's made makes delicious pancakes.
