Project and Semester Overview/Reflection

 As the project and semester comes to an end, and ive finshed my projects to a standard im mostly happy with given the constraint from outside factors i want to get how i feel about the projects and the highs and lows that came with it, especially since overall this year hasnt been my best in terms of productivity. 

We'll start of with: 

The Highs
Best Project:
This last project has definily been my most productive project of the entire year as its allowed me to explore different avenus, look at large amount of tutorials and help vastly understand how big and important VFXs are for creating a surrounding, but also understanding how they function in indivual steps and breaking down each effect.
A big part of the project is i wanted to learn to better break down the projects as in previous attempts over the years i would jump straight into a effect and not plan it without any reference so for this project i focused on trying to break down effects as best as possible.

Most Fun:
A big problem i had with previous projects was that i didnt find them fun or rewarding as i was doing them so i struggled to stay motivtated so my consistency in doing work was very varied, with this project whilst motivation still varied it, due to it being something i wanted to create i would be able to make small amopunts of progess instead of rushing everything in huge burst of energy so i appriected what i made and was willing to explore projects more.


The Lows
Motivation on the whole:
This year i have been clear that my motivation for doing this hasnt been as high as previous years and it mainly come from burn out as doing this for 4 years straight, so when it comes to it i had days where i would look at the screen then walk away cause i didnt want to do it nut this last project that happened less

Amount of work:
This has been a precident throught the entire year as well, but the amount of work ive done, at least to me, isnt acceptable to what i could achieve, but with the constraints that limited my work and as previously mentioned motivation, im accepting of the work, just wish i could do more.

The Reflection:
Overall i am happy with the project, is there stuff i would change, yes, am i happy the project is over yes, but overall this project has defianly been the most fulfilling of all the pojects ive done this year so i can say i have done one froject i am happy with.

This semester has shown me that i can handle work by myself i just need a better routine and find a better solution to not being distracted as easily as i have been, there have been other factors impacting my work but overall i should have done better.
