Stage 7: Production

There are many steps once you enter into the production phase of design. It is important to meet your marker/ deadlines by successfully interacting with the production team, and working well with your design team. You must communicate your ideas so that they are able to replicate them. You also must be open to feedback and listen to criticism because it is an opportunity to improve. Once you are sure about your ideas for your project and are ready to attempt creation it is important to create prototypes. There is a throwaway prototype and a evolutionary prototype. Prototypes should be full scale. When creating your prototypes one should play around with materials, color and textures. When making decisions about your design, consider constraints, materials budget, and aesthetics. More often than not your design will be dictated by a budget.
