Developing: I have a plan for managing time, but am not able to keep to it.

Needs Improvement: I do not have a clear plan for managing time.

Needs Improvement: I hardly contribute to my team.

to develop a solution that is well developed to substantial detail. I had tested and/or improved my prototypes a few times.

Developing: I explore a few ways of manipulating the elements to develop a solution that is partially developed to some detail. I had tested and/or improved my prototypes at least once.

Needs Improvement:
I explore one way of manipulating the elements to develop a solution that is superficially developed, lacking in detail. I made only one prototype and did not test and/or improve it.

Needs Improvement: I could not identify any strength and weakness and provide an inaccurate evaluation of the generated ideas/solutions.

I modified the pizza filling and recipe in order to make it healthier, using more vegetables and less cheese, using nutritious ingredients such as tomato and basil leaves to add flavour.I also practiced the manipulative skills of kneading and proving the pizza dough in order to let the yeast slowly activate, increasing the volume of the dough. 
When plating the dish, I also practiced stacking the pizza and using basil and tomato leaves for garnishing and to add colour to the plate. All this helped to make my dish more appealing.

-Reflect on the practical test session 

- Were you able to manage time?
I think that I completed my goal or completing all my cooking and cleaning in the allocated time as I managed to factor in enough time to let my pizza cool down and successfully was all my dished as well as picking a recipe within my skill level. I think I also managed to work efficiently and maintained the standard of hygiene and safety in the kitchen.
-Did you face difficulties? How did you overcome them? 
Difficulties I faced were that I had some problems rolling up the pizza. dough and cutting it into even pieces. I also had some problems kneading my dough at the start and feel like maybe I did not give it enough time to prove properly.
-How would you have done it differently? 
I would have kneaded my dough a bit more and given it some more time to rise. I would also have used more vegetables and ingredients as I feel like my pizza might be a little plain. Also, I would have baked my pizza longer.

- Reflect on the food blogging process 

-I found them very useful as they helped me to understand how to modify recipes to make them healthier and how to eat healthier. It also helped me learn of the different negative impacts of that can result from an unhealthy diet. 

-I think they were a bit challenging for me at the start but what with some practice, I got better at using them.

-It was very purposeful as it allowed me to experiment and explore with various types of cooking and ingredients in order to see whether or not it is possible to create a healthier version of a dish that still tastes equally good. This inspired me to modify the pizza dish and make it healthier and more nutritious while ensuring that it was still flavourful.

2. How does the composer create it?
-timbre: utilises lots of drums and the organ as well as contemporary instruments 
-tonality: piece uses a lot of chords, is in the minor key. chromatic scale, notes played at a rhythm that builds up suspense 

3. Describe the melodic part of the introduction to the piece. 
-use of chromatic scale and organ, notes played in a tempo that builds up tension and suspense 

4. Describe the bass line of the piece. How does it impact the piece?
-use of instrument of low register to create a grounding feel, ostinato (bass line that repeats itself; often used in pop music) 

5. Identify the instruments used. Discuss the effects of the timbre.

-drums, organ, as well as contemporary instruments 
-helps create the tone of the piece 

6. How is the tonality and beat different from La Donna e Mobile?  How does it affect emotion?

-The tonality of La Donna e Mobile is a lot more upbeat and happy and the notes in the song are all in the major key. The tempo and beat of the song is also faster, as such all this create a more energetic and joyous ambiance compared to the dark and dramatic one created by the Phantom of the Opera.

7. Discuss why this piece is attractive to many people.

- it has an interesting and catchy tune. 

2. How I used Rhythm & Repetition  (repeating elements such as subject matters, colors, shapes, lines )
--> I used rhythm and repetition in the technique I used to paint in the various articles of clothing. I tried to use many lighter brush strokes for all the clothing rather than painting them completely in a solid colour in order to draw more attention to the pink stroke in the centre that was solid. Various shades or red and pink are also repeated throughout the painting. 

3.How I used Contrast (color, size, texture, etc) 
--> I used contrast in colour by painting the stroke in the centre of the canvas in brighter hues of pink. This was in contrast to the rest of the painting which I had done in darker colours such as black and colours in darker hues like maroon. 
I also used contrast in the texture of the painting. While the person and clothing had been painted in smooth light brush strokes that did not completely cover the canvas, the stroke of pink had been done in thick layers and was completely filled. Furthermore, I used the dripping technique along the edges of the pink in order to give it more movement and make it more eye-catching to viewers when juxtaposed against the still, flat background. 

4. A short writeup about my work and my response to the theme I chose.
--> My work was done in response to the theme "Social Commentary". Titled 'Vanity', I hoped to make a comment on pop culture and trend following in our generation. Specifically targeting the 'hypebeast' culture which has risen considerably in popularity, through the use of clothing from expensive name brands and by outlining the silhouette of the person with dotted lines, I hoped to show that in this materialistic society, we have chosen to let trends and appearances define us as people, hoping to impress others. The pink stroke, covering a large majority of where the person's head would be, was meant to symbolise our loss of individuality as people, placing emphasis only on superficial things.

5. Areas that I would want to improve upon?
--> I feel that the background of my painting is slightly plain and that maybe I could have done something there to fill up the space. I also thing that perhaps I should have played more with complementary or analogous colours in the piece in order to enhance the message and ensure that emphasis was placed on the appropriate portions of the painting. I do feel that my painting was slightly simple and that I should have experimented more with other techniques and skills we learnt throughout the module. 

6. Which area are I am most satisfied with for my work ?
--> I am most satisfied with how the clothing in the painting turned out in the end. Though I think that I should have been more consistent and painted the t-shirt in the same brush stroke style, I am satisfied with how all the other pieces of clothing look as I think they do bear some resemblance to their real life counterpart and in general I like the effect created by the brush-strokes. I am also satisfied with the whole ideation and painting process I went through in order to obtain this final work. I think that it pushed me in terms of thinking creatively and that it encouraged me to think of a feasible yet fun way for me to express my message on my view on society.
