No33 Update on developments...

Reflective Journal Entry No33 11/09/11

Latest posting to update on creative development...

There have been a number of changes, brought about by circumstances beyond my control within the last week. The first of these was down to the Rylands informing me at quite short notice, that I would not be able to undertake my visual experiments as planned on Monday 12th. I believe it is down to the BBC requiring extra time to shoot in the library on that morning. This has set me back at least a few days and at the time of writing i'm not sure if I will be able to rearrange for this week? The library has offered Monday 19th, but this is going to make things very tight for me in the run up to my final submission on the 4th October. It will also place a large amount of pressure to have the final filmed materials ready for my presentation to Peers on the 27th September?

On top of all this the dissertation has become a struggle, only because of losing time on these other areas due to the above and a number of technical issues have arisen with the graphics. I have made good progress on research for the background on the writing and video inclusion on the DVD side of things. I have has to simplify the materials down significantly due to constraints of budget (in this case very little) as I can't believe the cost of getting 2 dissertations printed and bound? Oh well that's the way it goes I guess.

More to follow later...
