Last Crit Feedback

My last crit had mixed reviews, with an overarching feeling that it wasnt as good as a previous presentations. I did try something different in the way i started the presentation as it was meant to be thought provoking harping at that a connection was made by the first deep thinking men and women back around 10,000 years ago when agriculture and more higher levels of thinking created new tools and objects. The presentation featured a picture of a tree and a rock and aimed at saying that maybe they were once observed rolling down the hill with great gusto and ease, they were then connected with faster travel and utilised to transport goods due to their ergonomic properties that would of only been associated with their basic shape. Its hard thing to imagine, how we had to have a first thought as it were for every discovery. This abstract thinking may be a loose arching theme in my project but it is the main spirit of the work. That thinking differently yields new ideas and new discoveries, all be it as an individual in a classroom when the penny drops about a topic, or a scientist having an epiphany under a tree after being hit by an apple. I will maybe have to polish up how i present this idea in a different package to get the information across better.

Other feedback was that I needed more assets and to have more final work, time is pressing and i need to push on with getting them finished up. It has been a hard month but i think i am on the right tracks with the project, just need to bring it all together and not get caught up.

Last point of the presentation feedback was that i needed to think of some context for the assets, like the lava and how would they be presented?

Aims for the next few weeks:

- Get asset production up in general
- make some tough decisions about the lava metaphor, since its taking so long to render
- think about context for the assets
- thumbnails and playblasts of how they are going to be presented
