Blogtastico

Hello to you all for another week of interactive media madness. The last week was a case of organised chaos. With the deadline looming I had to complete the immense list that I prepared earlier that week. The main things that I had to do were the executive summary and finish off the other parts of the assignment. The other 3 tasks needed referencing and then putting into the template. The irony of this week is, in task 3.3 I mentioned something called scope creep, that’s where there are lots of little tasks added and then it equates to one big problem, which is what happened. I made the list, but I didn’t mind about the size of it because I knew that they were all small tasks that wouldn’t take long, but the small tasks seemed to last a little longer than I expected and it all ended in on a difficult few days work near to the end of the week.

This week I have had my new assignment handed out, or at least the first task from it, so I have to come up with 3 design icons from the 20th century. The new assignment is called culture vulture (it rhymes… fantastic).

Time planning, my favourite word. I’m getting better at it slowly but surely. I have got into the habit now of making lots of lists for things I am going to do, it’s a good way of keeping track of what’s been done. Yes I know that it has been taught to me before but now that I have figured out for myself that it works it’ll stay in my head and I will use it. Anyways with the new list fever that I have I bought a whiteboard for making my lists. I’ll have to plan some time to put it up so that I can plan some time with it.

For next week I have to complete task 1 of the CiSSy assignment, research the icons and I will add to my sketchbook, because it’s been a little neglected.

That’s my post for the week, get them comments down guys.
