Gonna Conduct Some Interviews

I've got interviews lined up with, basically everyone, those who wrote for the Outlet whose pieces I'd selected to do the graphic design for. Getting a feel for the author's intent, because I don't think the author is dead. Also great practice for, this kind of thing. Got four great pieces, who wouldn't want to get into the authors' heads on this kind of thing?

I wrote about it in my module workbook which I've actually started with this early. Read it so that I don't have to write any more on the matter, and head to bed now.

I’m a pretty lousy graphic designer. I mean I can recognize graphic design when it’s bad, and that’s how I can tell. I’m a pretty lousy graphic designer.
After rushing to get module two done, with a particularly hectic week leading up to the due date, I scheduled my time out a lot, and found myself missing that when the project was over. I figured then that since I do have all this spare time, having so much downtime even when it’s time to be scrabbling like mad, I may as well use my time to do something instead of phoning in my major projects. Revamping my entire process of graphic design, starting with the first phase.
I did do a lot of research for last project, but this is a different animal entirely. In order to be the best, not lousy, have a chance at being the final designer for even one of these layouts, and also utilize the resources available to me just for the heck of it (they do put the author’s email address next to their name on the list of pieces that need to be designed for,) I decided to delve into the research step through conducting interviews with the authors to determine their own views on the pieces. Hopefully this would give me some insight into the works, and from there determine the best strategies for doing graphic design work. I’d also have to work hard on the other steps, but with all this free time I suddenly realized I have available to me, I figured being able to push myself and do something prestigious and not-lousy would be worth the extra effort. Seriously.
