I really enjoyed watching this movie in class. The main thing I think that I learned while watching Objectified would probably be about how human interaction is such a huge factor, when creating an object. I never really realized the importance of how a product works with the human body. For example the idea of making a chair, and how every chair has the same basic layout, but different designers will add different elements that they believe will be the most comfortable.However, no one sways from the same ninety degree angle of the chair.
Another example would be the creation of the potato peeler. The grip of the peeler is something that would never cross my mind unless I was physically using that tool. Making prototypes and actually using the product before mass producing it is very important in creating a well designed object. If the designers really focused on the user and the human interaction, consumers would be much more pleased with the design world and its products.
