2016 - Y2 Post one

YEAR 2.0

In this Post. I aim to examine what went wrong last year, how I can work past it and some of the plans I've put in place to do so.

timekeeping

my biggest issue last year was in regard to timekeeping and scheduling, this is mostly apparent when reviewing the directions unit wherein admittedly minor extenuating circumstances resulted in a lack of time to finish my work by the hand in, this resulted in the resitting of that unit. to combat that issue plans were  put in place during the final unit, these were thankfully effective.

another example of this issue made manifest is  in regard to punctuality day to day. most of the time I can arrive for a given non-regular event, on time. However my ability to regularly arrive on time regularly has been a problem since my childhood and relates to the following section of the post.

the final issue I had with time keeping was task scheduling, on a given task I'd prefer to work through the night as I am easily distracted during the day without a focus provided by a third party. this interferes with my ability to work individually during the early evening or late afternoon. to try and combat overly late hours I have put into place a task schedule that enforces work attention during the hours in which i focus best. (between 21:00 and 02:00)

people management,

I feel like if I can't offer something physical or tangible to a prospective teammate they either won't turn up or won't want to be involved at all. this feeling comes from experience in secondary school and my time at college. I feel awkward asking things of others outside of a shooting setting, even in a professional environment it's hard for me to ask people to do things, like it's not my place to ask others.

last year this resulted in my extremely small production teams and using unprofessional but trusted friends rather than "untrustworthy professionals" as actors. as stated earlier this comes from some deeper social issues that I'm working through.
