~ Overview ~
This project actually relates close to the heart for me as it's an experience that i had went through, and I would love to educate others about seeing this experience too. Although, maybe not getting back together with them. I wouldn't recommend unless the other partner really DO realise whats wrong with themself, yknow, like how my character Leon is. I think he knows that he's an a$$.
OVERVIEW
Overall, throughout this project, I did enjoyed myself as illustration is always a happy thing for me,but other than the technical issues on not havign HD photos on my final, audio problems, a lot of money wasted on printing due to printing problems (hey, more extra copies for me?) was a big stressful indulging moment for me . This whole project was a big learnign curve to me as I had to learn a new software- UNITY. My laptop definetly could not support this software as well as i hoped, but i did what i could and made work with what i had. Lecturers and programmer friends had helped me a lot alogn the way especially with C#, a new code i'm barely familiar with! It's honestly.. not as fun as i thought. Maybe during the sem break i'll try to get a more hang of it, but for now, I did the best i could.
SELF REFLECTION
I admit i'm still very bad at time management and with the add on weight of quaratine life, not beign able to go back to campus life, it kind of ruined my workstyle as i tend to usually do my work in school, rather than home as i felt too distracted to evrything around me in my house, and also; bad internet. Futhermore to add on, my mental health state was honeslty not as good as how it was the begining of January, and heck, it's gone down a lot worst, but i tried my best to not let it affect my work and people around me but oops , spoilers! it did!
TECHNICAL WISE
Issues that had dragged my time longer than its suppose to are mainly : sound audio problems and APK exportation to android. Those 2 main problems really suffered my work a lot and stressed me out a ton as everyhting could have went well.
Other than that, it was also managing to map the animation to lay properly on my target image asive asked varies of people from real life lecturere, programmer friends who specialise in Unity, looking up to google, non of them actually works. So due to that problem, i;ve just left most of my animations be, to play as they are and hopefully they works somethings. although some works on first try, soem does not. Im very confused too.
Other than that,,
I admit on this being my first time doing UNity.. it may have gotten far worst.. but im glad i chose doing 2D illustrations rather than 3D cause i'd cry and be stressed out even more !!
Anyway, illustration is really something i've enjoyed working on and im glad i got to involve a new type of artstyle into my work.
SO, WAS THIS MY GOAL?
Did i felt like a sense of achievement from this project? yes Did i manage to get to my target learning goal? uhhh i guess? Could go better i guessed
I did felt like i did something iām quite happy of- although many technical issues still arised during my presentation part, im glad i manage to pull it off - somewhat. Maybe.
FINALLY
It's been a tough 15 weeks, heres a summary of what i did throughout the weeks;
week 1 - 6 : projet proposal
week 7: cry
week 8-10: a lot of technical things
week 11: designing of book
week 12-15 : resolving technical things together with the involvement of a book - and lastly not to forget: cry! waa waa
Anyway thank you for following this journey! Here's winnie lee signing out from this project!
