Let me start off by saying that the Coleman was an incredibly fun project which I enjoyed incredibly. When I sat down to examine my personal process and examine what my role in the group was, I found that we were really a collaborative group that worked incredibly well together. Many times during projects I take the lead and try to control of the group, become the leader...even when I'm not trying. I think it's in my nature to try to control things but I tried really hard during this project to not try to force my opinions or to lead to much because I wanted to try to listen and hear everyone's ideas...and make them feel like we were all contributing equally. When it came time to start brainstorming about where we wanted to go for the project it was mostly coming up with ideas about what we thought Coleman was and what the company stood for. We finally decided on doing a tabletop with a cook-top somehow incorporated. Sarah Howard provided the idea partly inspired by campfires and partially inspired by Japnese steakhouses. After we reached this pivotal point to project proceeded nicely and above are the sketches for the main ideas that I provided for the project. Most of the visual work was done by Mike B, who is absolutely incredible with Photoshop, and the kiosk ideas were provided by Ricardo. Sarah and I were the ones who organized the presentation and created the Power-point presentation. When we were working on the presentation we wanted to incorporate the idea of Coleman into the very theme of the presentation itself and considered this more of a pitch to the company than a presentation to the class. Overall, I felt that we did very well and thanks to the hard work of everyone in the group, we succeeded!
