Art Project 4- Day 40

This current project is now finished.

This time round I had to be more independent and manage the project myself. I had to work out how much time I should allow for each task. I think I worked out the timing fairly well, creating a schedule on my brief and creating deadlines in my google calendar.

Overall I stuck to my plan fairly well, only missing one deadline for my textures. I think setting goals for each stage of development helped me to stay on top of my work and stay on track.

If I had missed one of my goals by a bigger margin, then it could have been a bigger problem. In future projects I should allow extra time if anything happens, in this case I took some time off this project to go back over some previous units.

My google calendar proved to to be useful. At the start of the project I had set up reminders for each of my goals to keep me on track.
A nice feature of the google calendar is that as it is bound to my google account, I can view it on multiple devices, so I could receive reminders through my phone along with email reminders and viewing it on a PC too. So I'm always aware of when my next goal deadline is and I can work to meet it.

Having to manage my own project and it's pacing was a good experience for me, especially since I've applied for uni next year, and I'd have to be much more independent at Uni.
