MAIN BODY
Summary of the T – Shirt Challenge
T – Shirt challenge is will involve the logo printing on the t – shirt which will help in
framing and knowing the t – shirt designing of the t – shirt and the logo which is to be printed on
it. I will be designing the logo on the t – shirt and this will help me in knowing how to design
and print the t – shirt for the challenge which will be taken by the people Logo printing on t –
shirt will help in knowing basis through which all possible factors of how the t – shirt will be
designed and printed will be known and along with this cost of the t – shirt will be analyzed
which will help in making the logo of the t – shirt effective and in appropriate scale through this
analysis. The main and important thing in designing the t – shirt is that what logo will be placed
in the t – shirt and what will be the aspects which will be considered at large scale while printing
and designing the t – shirt (D’Souza and et.al., 2019). I will be designing the t – shirt by ensuring
that challenge goes well and the logo designing on the t – shirt is well represented for the
challenge.
Reflection on Personal Skills Development
By taking the initiative of logo designing for t – shirt challenge, I have learnt that this
challenge has enhanced many skills like presentation skills, designing skills, typography skills
which have helped in knowing the essential aspects which help in knowing the major changes
required and analysis at large scale. My presentation skills have to be improved and this will help
me in knowing the aspect through which the purpose of designing the t – shirt will be depicted
and analyzed at large scale. I am very good at creativity which has helped me in designing the t –
shirt for creating the value of the t – shirt and with the help of this I will have to develop the
skills which has been directed me in knowing how to make the t – shirt designing an important
activity for the challenge which was being undertaken (Bean and et.al., 2018). The logo
designing has helped me evolving in my career as well which has impacted my growth and
development through which the important aspects such as knowing and evaluating the important
things which are required in the challenge and for the t – shirt designing have to be improved. I
also have the opportunity to improve and develop my designing skills for the logo and this has
helped me in making and framing the basis of how the t – shirts were to be designed.

My designing skills are good but to improve and enhance them I have to focus on what
important and detail notes I can make while designing the logo for the t – shirt. With the help of
designing skills, I have to be able to make innovative and creative logos which have helped me
in making the t – shirts and this attracted the customers to buy more actively (Beckingham,
2018). By designing the t –shirt I knew various creative and innovative ways which helped me in
developing the basis through which all the aspects of how the logos were designed are known at
large scale and this helped me in developing the basis through which the tools which were
required for designing helped me in making the logos more creative and innovative.
Along with this, typography is the most creative way in which the logos can be designed
and with the help of designing I was able to make and create new changes and ways through
which my typography skills for the logo designing were seen. With the help of the typography
skills my presentation skills were also improved and this initiated the growth and development
which I seek in myself. I do not know much about the typography, so by developing this skill I
was able to ensure myself that this learning process has helped me in developing the basis
through which I can make the changes and initiate growth in my career through this very
important skill which has to be in progress of development (Gurung and et.al., 2019). By
developing this skill I was able to progress and initiate the skills which have helped me
developing and evaluating the major and basic forms through which the t – shirts develop the
logos in effectively and in appropriate manner. I was also able to manage and develop the skills
which helped me in my creative field development. Therefore, by building these strengths I was
able to develop what was needful for me and this also helped me in presentation of the logos
which were effective for me in growth towards the creative field (Einarsson, 2021). Personal
skills development was thus very helpful for me to know what are my strengths and weaknesses
which I incur.
Potential area of improvement
The potential area of improvement are my weaknesses which I need to improve for the t –
shirt logo design and print and this will help me in knowing what are the major consequences
which are to be faced and the skills which I am weak in to be developed so that I am able to
design and develop the my core skills which are required in designing the t – shirt logo through
which all the perspectives and logos are being designed effectively and in appropriate manner.

The areas of improvement for my skills are the graphic designing, presentation skills, and
creative skills. These are the skills which I need to improve so that I can ensure that all the
aspects of how the things are working and being analysed at large scale also these skills will help
me in notifying and improving the various stages through which I can innovate and develop the
skills at large scale (Gabbay and et.al., 2018). The main reason which is being evaluated and
analyzed at this stage is how effectively and in learning manner I am taking the key concerns
through which my these three skills are improved. The main reason to which I will be able to
make and initiate the development and growth in my personal skills will be through the
perspectives through which I will be able to make and develop the skills so that the t – shirt logo
design is created successfully and this helps in making and creating the valuable forms of how
the logos are being printed and designed (Andreopoulou and et.al., 2019). Typography is one
such skill which I want to improve and this skill is very helpful for me in framing and orienting
the logos for the reason that they attract majority of individuals.
These skills are my areas of improvement which will help me in developing the scale
through which I will be able to design and print the t – shirts. Through these skills, I will be able
to initiate and analyse various aspects through which possibility of making and framing the
designs for t – shirt is an important work for me and this will initiate my many other skills which
will be very helpful in my personal development while working on printing the t – shirts for
challenge (Sayankar and et.al., 2019). The potential area of improvement are skills which I need
to improve and through this I will be able to be more productive and effective towards my work
of t – shirt printing. New skills development will help me in my work and this will initiate the
work through which I will be able to make better logo designs on the t – shirts and as per
requirements for the t – shirt challenge when conducted. Thus, incurring new skills will be
helpful for me in knowing myself more and will help in areas of development through which I
will be able to learn more and analyze the requirements for t – shirt designs and prints
significantly (Anees and et.al., 2017). Thus, the areas of development are skills which are to be
improved.
