Took a prominent role within the group with a few other people from the brainstorming issues stage, through to the logistics stage and then with the presentation development. I directed it with Leon for the first stage and once the initial plans and meetings were completed this shifted over to Natalie. I took on the role at the start of ensuring everything was on track - we created a timetable and worked out what needed to be done between us - but with various members of the group missing at numerous meetings I took on a lot more of the project than initially intended. This proved okay when creating the presentation, as one person doing it ensured it stayed in the same style throughout and was therefore visually consistent. Creating all the hand writing type and illustrations and having to digitally prepare these for the presentation also took a lot of work. However as a group the different slides and what should be included was worked out altogether which was very helpful, and each person wrote each slide. I transferred this into notes for presenting the presentation to keep it simple visually. I felt I successfully fulfilled all my roles, including working out the costs and logistics, working well as a team member and leading when necessary.
The topic in general was really well received by the class and our work on the topic appropriately reflected the tone and message we wanted to convey on the issue. The slow development on the presentation aesthetic was a struggle as first as this meant we had less time to actually create the presentation in a way that would've been more equally distributed amongst the team. But essentially it ensured we had a lot of choice and discussion on it, which is a positive aspect of team work briefs.
