In this crit I asked the question; “what
sport do you recognize this as?” This was the only question I wanted to ask, as
a pictogram must be recognisable by everyone. The feedback I received was
positive and the group all recognized it as representing the table tennis
sport and they felt it captured the energy of the sport. So my pictogram is successful. One comment that was made quite a bit
however is how fat the characters look. Although they liked the design and its
obvious as to what it presents their circular bodies make them look like little
fat people. However this effect has come from a design decision to use the
shape of the penny farthing in my design and I think it makes them comical and
enjoyable to look at. Another comment that was made was that one of the
pictograms looked a little inappropriate. As this is a secondary design I can
just remove it from my final outcome all together. My feedback group thought my
pictograms were ”literally identifiable as table tennis” and that the design
process was “well developed through experimentation.
