Task 5: Video Reflections (Designing Dream Machines)

Designing Dream Machines by Richard Burkes

As this video is pretty long, i will provide an overview of the whole video. British designers, Dick Powell and Richard Seymour try to find the factor which marks their product out from all the competition. It follows them as they work on three new designs, such as the Skorpion motorcycle (a classic design), which was specifically made for indians, The MuZ for East German company and the cordless kettle which has the brief of making kitchen applicances having a 'futuristic' feel to it. The video explains many things including brainstorming, researching, proposual, solution investigation, prototyping and most importantly evaluation of the project.
