I’ve scanned and uploaded a whole load of things I had intended to for quite a while. This is because I had my scanner out to scan a sketch for the new site’s header image:
Among some pretty random old stuff, there were also a couple of concept sketches for my recent Final Year Project:

And a quick scribble of an idea for the idat menu button:

This pretty much marks the completion of the first ‘whole year’ module with the playtest of the game. I took some photos of our game being played along with some others of neighbouring demos:

The introduction of two different modules was covered today, the 6,000 to 10,000 word Dissertation (PRID301) and the Programming for Entertainment Systems (SOFT 323).
Geoff Cox mentioned that keeping a blog for reflection on the process behind producing the dissertation was a good idea, so I think it is time to start creating a few new Categories and portfolio areas!
Additionally, I really ought to structure my portfolio a bit better so that I can hold a range of some of my industrial level work as well as continue showcasing i-Dat as this site was originally intended.

The time has come for me to decide which final year modules I shall be taking for i-dat and its shaped up thus:
Dissertation (20 credits) and BSc Project (40 credits) – these aren’t exactly optional, they must be done.
IDAT310 Design for Entertainment Systems (20 credits) – we’ve already formed a group to work on this with and hence…
IDAT323 Programming for Entertainment Systems (20 credits) – …someone will need to have studied the programming side. I also expect to be able to use 3D, DirectX and C++ perhaps in my final year project.
IDAT311 Scripting for Digital Media (10 credits Autumn term) – Some hopefully familiar turf studying OOP in Flash and producing ‘something that does something’.
IDAT312 Narrative and Digital Form (10 credits Spring term) – should be nice apparently to study while writing my own dissertation.
I’ve also realised this is the only time I can post on this date for another four years…
