How This Went


This did not go to plan whatsoever. Due to the amount of work in other subjects and also examinations in other subjects I really struggled to stick to my time plan. I completely under estimated the amount of work that was needed to create my ancillary tasks and mostly my website.
Another issue that completely through my time management off course was the loss of my teacher Mrs Roberts. My first media teacher who started the course with my class left after the christmas period which then left my class to work alone with no teacher help or input. Any issues we had for example with embedding my video to my website we then had to deal with ourselves.

However in reflection I should have incorporated contingency time to make me more prepared for any changes to my set plan. I should have also allowed a longer time period for each task. One month set on the whole of researching and planning rather than just a matter of days. Also for the construction of my website I only allowed myself a month to do so, as well as trying to complete my blog, double page spread and newspaper advert. This in my opinion was very optimistic as I discovered the process to create a level 3-4 website took a lot longer than just one month. Then again, even by going over the deadlines I set for myself for my work I still ended up rushing rather a lot  of things. Writing my evaluation was very stressful as the deadline for the whole course was approaching fast and I still handout written a good evaluation. Due to the amount of time I took creating my website, my newspaper adverts and double page spread were not up to the standard I was hoping but I do think I did a very good job considering my lack of PSE experience.
