During the making of my Avatar I
encountered numerous problems, these were:
1. Not being able to do my first
idea, as it was too hard. I tried doing it in different ways but they all
became too hard to do. So I decided to change my idea, witch turned out to be
better anyway.
2. I lost my USB, so I had to
start over. This was a bit challenging trying to get it done in time but turned
out well.
3. A few times when I was working
on my photoshop I did not know how to do something, or forgot it, I just asked
a friend or Mr. Powel. If this was not possible, I would either watch one of
the videos on black board or try doing different things.
My planning and organization skills
aren’t very good, so they let me down a few times. I often half way through
something, think of a different way to do it, so I would get rid of what I had
been working on start fresh. This was good in some ways as I was thinking of
new better ways of doing certain things, but then it was bad because I would
have spent quite a bit of time on the first one but then not use it at all. A
couple of times I forgot to bring my USB to class so I would have to borrow
someone else’s then transfer it to mine the following lesson. This wasn’t very
good as I had files on all these different USB’s.
I made sure that I had all of my layers appropriately named and in the right order so that everything that need to be seen could be seen, and in the right way.
I
I had some issues with keeping on track
whilst creating my avatar, and wouldn’t work the best I could in class. But I
did borrow out a laptop most weekends and continue with my avatar. I also would
work on it in prep after school. By doing this it helped me keep up with
getting certain stages done in a good time, so I wouldn’t have to rush.
No, I don’t think that I did the best I
could with keeping up with my blog. I often would think about it, but then not
end up doing it. I don’t think that my reflections support my as well they
should.

THE IDEA
I have decided to change what I am doing for my Photoshop, as I lost my flash drive and rather than doing what i was originally doing I had a better idea. My new Photoshop holds the idea that we are all 'Animals in a Concrete Jungle'. I will have Portia and Olivia as animals than have them in a big city with vines growing off them. So the faces of the girls will make them look like the animals, and the vines on the buildings will represent the idea of the concrete jungle.
