Design Process;
So on the 15th of January I had a meeting with the Head Teacher at the Primary School where I am doing my work shop at and explained to her what it is I am wanting to do but also explaining that in my research no names will be published of the school or the children due to safety reason.
So after the meeting they said I could do the workshop on the 22nd of January, today, and said I will be given a slot in the afternoon.
So when I arrived I was shown to the classroom where the children were, and while they were getting a story read to them, they allowed me to set up ready to go when they got back into their seats.
Since time was limited I had to cut some of the taskes I was orginally going to do with them, so I decided to stick with the colourblindness test and the Character design. So first of all I showed the class a series of Ishiara plates and asked them to write down the number they seen. Once this was completed I noticed how difficult it was for some of them to get answers for but this didn't mean they were colourblind it just meant they struggled to see. Once we had collected in the answers and handed out more pieces of paper I asked them to draw a character for the story and while they were doing that also asked them to think of a name for the character and what type of job they would do.
Once this was done it was about time for me to go so I asked the class one last question and that was to help me create the name of the town the story was going to be based on, and after giving them a handful choices they decided on Woogleton.
