As a way of ending the project, it was rather enjoyable to sit and listen to the other groups talk about their concepts, designs and promotional tactics. Whilst it began to get catty and somewhat mean towards lunch break, there was an air of clarity and competitiveness among the audience as people laid into the presenting team in order to get ahead.
Our presentation went pretty well. I was nervous before talking, nervous whilst talking and nervous even once I'd finished talking but the overall consensus was that although I went bright red (as I tend to do), my presenting skills weren't bad. Our team did awfully on the timing front given the sheer amount of things we had to present and talk about and I ended up cutting short a lot of the information I wanted to say to back up our decisions on why we decided to do things the way we did.
That being said, it was most rewarding at the end to win in the presentation category and we celebrated the win afterwards with the girls from the Meadham Kirchoff group who won in the concept category. The overall experience of the group project was positive. Not only did I get on remarkably well with everyone in my group but we also managed to overcome the mishaps we had. One member left the course entirely, another was ill for the first week and in hospital on one occasion but we still managed to pull it out of the bag, work it out and swoop up a prize at the end.
A job well done, I'd say.
