Seeing the graph reminded me of how any essays, movies, or stories go. Every stage of the story is extremely important as the beginning sets the audience up with the information that they should worry about. Then by emphasizing the role of tension throughout the story and during the conflict, it makes the story stand out much more as authors are able to effectively connect classic storytelling principles to real-world marketing challenges. The conclusion also plays an important role as it's a way for the user to be satisfied with the outcome or be left with a thought-provoking question that lingers in their mind.

I find this concept to be interesting and important to implement. It's something that we use to help us proceed further in the goal. I have never really think much about this concept before in the past as all I did was think that a design should be implement it, then think that's probably all I need to do. But now I understand that this concept might not fit and easy to understand for all of the users.

I feel like this is a statement that we should all consider. I agree that prototype is a very important process that we all need to do when it comes to designing something. But if there's a method that has been working for a long time and you want to implement it, the need to prototype shouldn't be as important. I feel a lot of companies need to consider this to cut cost and time.

This made me think about my experience as a kid studying in Vietnam. I didn't have the chance to solve problems creatively, as my teachers would tell me to do things in a specific way, and my friends would tell me that I was weird for doing things the way I did. However after I moved and started attending school in the US, I had trouble doing creative tasks like writing essays or designing something for a class project. This reading reminded me that not everything should be followed step by step, it's something to help guide you through the problem as with creativity, you can get a better result than what you expected.

From this, we can see that everyone has something different that they are looking for in a design. So it's our job to look at all of the responses that we acquired throughout the interview processes and reach the "best" conclusion. This led to understanding the goals that you're aiming for is a crucial part when it comes to designing the solution. By focusing on our potential new goals from the interview, we would get the best design that would help the most amount of people.

I feel like this is something many people tend to forget when it comes to designing. During the process of designing, you're doing to combat an issue and you need to understand the demographic you're designing this for. As we can see from the video earlier, a blind person who's trying to use an ATM that has a label "Audio jack", how can a blind person see that label and know where to plug in the headphone jack. I feel like it would be best if the designers would be able to do an interview or some sort of data collecting to fully understand the demographic that this design is being made for.

I agree with this statement as design is something that has many different complex details that are hidden from the user. It's a way for the creators/designers to express their ideas with others so they can evaluate these ideas. This process is one that allow one's design to be improve through many iterations with the feedbacks received from others which could be a long process that will meet the requirements, or needs from other sources.

After watching the video and thinking about the statement, I agree that "design" is much more complex than what normal people would think. It might seem simplistic to some, but the process is anything but that. People need to spend time, thinking about whether this "design" will fit the theme or can be used in the long run. This gives anyone a chance to design anything as long as they give the appropriate amount of time to design the task
