Sunset Cottage - Evaluation

I suppose the most evident concern throughout this brief was how long it took us to complete, we initially started out thinking it could be completed in 3 weeks, however we were wrong given the issues of keeping in contact with the client. As she was a very busy lady she was always quite difficult to reach in terms of an open line of communication. This meant we had to wait for certain resources and have patience in responding.
Meeting the needs of the client was also quite difficult, this was because it felt like once we'd ammended certain aspects of the design & web, she then wanted more added to the workload and in the end we had to bring this issue up and say we've completed everything design and functionality wise we set out to complete.
This brief acted as a learning curve for both me and Greg, deepening our understanding of pricing and calculating invoices etc. We also learnt how to handle a client and keep a consistent and professional communication.
I felt the collaboration between me and Greg worked successfully because we were friends, we were able to speak openly about anything and everything in relation to the brief.
One thing I regret with this brief is not taking the opportunity to go into vernon street and bind the guestbook, the only reason I didn't do this was because it was being used only for photographic purposes.
