Strengths
Research - When I actually get down to work I find that I thoroughly enjoy the initial researching of the play, themes and concepts. At this stage I find everything to be open and I can go down any avenue I want. My interest into research can be seen early on during the different art styles and technique projects. I think this is most seen in my work for Breath because it was a much more open subject and I really got into the research, looking at songs, documentaries, news paper articles and photographers. I drew inspiration from a range of resources and I think that this can be seen to have greatly benefited the project. It is also nice to be able to look back over the older projects and see how much I have improved.
Implementation - I also think that I would be a good person to have on a team because I am typically willing to do the time and put in the effort required. It is the writing up of the notes afterwards that I struggle with. I think that this can be most scene in my implementation of Iphigenia in Splott during which I collected flowers, created a plaque, carried rails and helped in the set up.
Weaknesses
A recurring problem throughout the year was my inability to properly present the projects and what our thought processes were, although a huge improvement can be seen in how I approached the first and last project presentations. I have also found my time management to be of some concern, which is something I need to work on in a more general sense as well as in regards to the process workbooks. I find this to be my greatest weakness because it has the greatest impact on my work as a whole.
Another weakness is that I am still not sure of my abilities and need almost everything I do to be second checked by someone else. Although not a major problem, I do waste a lot of time by waiting for feedback from my group when it should be a project I am independently capable of doing. Improvement in this area can also be seen during the Iphigenia project while I worked on multiple little projects and only felt the need to consult the group a handful of times.
Improvement
I would say that I have improved in almost every area we have looked at within the module. Most noticeably I would say that I am visibly more confident in the sharing of ideas and in the offering of constructive advice.
