3. Objectified-the movie.

Objectified was a very interesting movie, in my opinion. It was about out relationship with the everyday things we use, and the people who designed them. it reminded me of the Dieter Rams column we read. It talked a lot about what makes a good design, and how to make a product user friendly too. It showed timelines of different products, and how the designer updated the product, but still kept it similar so the consumer would not have trouble using it. I thought it was interesting that the Apple iPhone or iTouch was said to be the perfect design. I would agree with this statement, my iPhone is easy to use, but not so simple that I feel like I am missing something. The look is sleek and pleasing to the eye, which makes it a perfect product. Even though I am graphic design major, not an industrial design major, this movie was still good to see because everything has to deal with design. It was good to see how these designers thought about when designing their products, something we all need to think about.
