I often finish an assignment but feel a bit unsatisfied. During a feedback zoom meeting with my Tutor , he happened to mention the fact that projects often take months/years to complete in the “real world” and sometimes it’s quite hard to create something in the relatively short time given to complete assignments. This helped a lot and took the pressure off to get things right first time. Once again I found myself in a position where I had “finished” assignment three but knew in the back of my head that it wasn’t right. Rather than try to force things, I left it alone, and did a bit of wordpress  housekeeping with menus etc. I also had a quick look though the course notes for Part Four, to try and get my mind away from Part three. I also had a bit of a think about assignment one and two and what I might do when I revisit them before assessment.

This really helped and after a day or so I went back to the assignment blogs and continued where I had left off, with a new sense of purpose.

The main problem was that I was getting so involved that I had forgotten what my aim was and what I wanted the set of images to say! At this point I was still not sure I could communicate it well enough, but at least I had put myself back in track.

This happened quite a few times more and I was pleased to say that I allowed myself time to think about it more, always pushing myself back to the aim or more to the point what I was trying to communicate through the images.
