On Monday we had a group tutorial all day, presenting our work. It got round to me finally in the afternoon, to which the tutor I was with, decided to rip in to me, interrupt and criticize every detail of my work. I wouldn't of minded if it was constructive, but it wasn't, it was just rude. I had done a lot of work, he just put me under pressure to explain it so I got nervous and became a blabbering idiot. Embarrassing. So understandably I felt really de-motivated.
However on Tuesday, we had one on one tutorials with different tutors, this was much more helpful and productive. He suggested a few bits and bobs I could look at. He was concerned that I have set myself a lot of work, which I have, I always set myself loads. But he was concerned that it could affect the overall quality of the outcomes, and perhaps it was better to concentrate on 1 maybe 2, rather than 3 outcomes.
He made a good point about this.
Which makes me sad to say I'll be dropping the Hansel and Gretel Outcome.
First I want to say a BIG thank you to Alex Cruden who wrote the script for this, it was really good, and I will be using it in the future for a personal project. I had to drop it as it looked like it would take the most work to do, and I'm definitely doing the Film Noir Outcome as I've done the most research for this, I just didn't want to a half arse attempt at it when it could be really good with my full attention. Sorry again to Alex.
I've been thinking about dropping the Stop Motion Photo montage Animation too. Again, with this, I really want to do it, but I really think time will be against me for this. It will take a lot of effort (cost a bit too) and I don't think it's worth rushing or compensating the quality of it for it to be in on time. I'll decide in the next few days but doesn't look hopeful.
Dramatic times!
Jamie
