Considering Moving The Project Forwards

I am very excited as today is the day which the Cell Crew will be arriving! I cannot wait to see how my creations have turned out. I have also purchased props for these recently, so I will see if these are suitable and if not I will look for different options.

Today is going to be a busy day for me as I have also requested to see the ‘external’. This meeting is at 12.00. Prior to this I will be meeting my course leader for a one-to-one tutorial. I requested to see the external as I want to be made aware of any flaws in my campaign from the outset, so that these can be rectified before the final submission.

To the meeting with the external I am bringing my primary research folders. I am aware that I am behind on my secondary research – therefore I am going to work backwards and start working on this.

On Friday I am due to send over my ‘completed’ report to the proofreader, therefore today and tomorrow I will spend working on this. Once I have sent the report over to the proofreader, I will start working on the formatting of my report.

I am going to use InDesign for this, as I had prior experience of this from a previous report I wrote about Licensed Characters, therefore I understand the way in which this programme works. I must remember that each of my characters must be imported as individual items. From this I can then start working on different animation techniques and ways in which I can make the design interactive.

I will have around four days from the moment that I send off my work for proofreading, up until the day that I get the report back. During these four days I have decided that I must start working on the web portal. I have a deadline with the Advancement Department, that flexible web spaces, adapted to suit each audience, must by the beginning of March. Therefore I have four weeks to get on top of this. This is great practice for me as, once these are created, I can include these within my report and analyse these – painting a truer picture of what the overall campaign will look like.

I have two photo shoots booked – one is in the studio and the other is on location. I will take photographs through these locations and incorporate these into all promotional areas.
