Presentations, Pitches and Passes, OH MY.

So I did presentation for Developing Game Concepts.
I have to say it went pretty well.I mainly went up, looked at the slides I made the night before and essentially winged it. The lecturer enjoyed it.
The game involves a 2D character getting thrown into the future where everything is 3D and said character has to make his way through different levels, some being 3D, some being 2D and some being both.
He said I did everything he essentially asked. So I was rather pleased. Still got more coursework though. Getting that done now though... just taking a break to write this blog post.
I'm hoping, obvious, to pass this year. I almost finish and I don't want to do any resits. If I have a resit then I'll do it but it's one of the last resorts. The very last resort being repeating second year.
So now, I've decided to get capped at a D grade. It's a pass, but it's better than handing in nothing. So instead of handing it in today I will be handing it in hopefully next Friday.
So hopefully I will get the D now.
Wish me luck guys. I'll keep you updated.
What I'll probably end up doing after I finish everything will work on 3D modeling and keep you guys updated on that.
Chris out.

Coursework

So I've got 4 lots of coursework to do for Friday. Pain in the ass. Never leave stuff to the last minute. Also found out I have a presentation along with one of the courseworks too.
Coursework includes:
Game Engines - Essentially I need to write a game pitch and then describe how I would put it into a game engine eg Unreal.
Developing Game Concepts - Presentation pitch on Friday morning, and 5 documents for a game concept.
Interaction Design - Nothing really to do with my course. It's a resit too. Not sure what I need to actually do.. due for Friday..

And to top it off I need to finish the business coursework. Nearly finished now, just need 1000 more words. Fun times.

*Breakdown in 3..2..ferifgjiedj*

For Games Engines, I got a massive book for Unreal as I never went to one of the classes. I have no idea what to write yet. Anyone got a good game concept?

Thanks for reading!

Never Do Business Management

As a Games Design and Production Management student, part of my course involves business. I'm currently *trying* to do a report for it. As I said *trying* and failing. I can do it, it's just so boring. Give me a topic I'm interested in. Give me Fallout 3 or Portal 2. Give me a game to talk about and I will play it for hours and then write everything I can about it. The report is due for tomorrow and I still have't finished it. God help me. Plus everytime I sit down, something else becomes a distraction! *ahem* Blogger *ahem*.

The report itself is a reassessment about Ford Motors. I've got to identify using the case study, Fords primary stakeholders and then apply certain models to it and then say other stuff about it. *That's.Just.The.First.Question.*
There are 3 in total. Plus I need to write a summary, introduction, conclusion and then name all my references using Harvard Referencing. Now those of you that have used that type of referencing know how much a pain in the ass it is for students.

Anyway, enough of blogging. Back to work.
Before I head, however. Take a look at this guy. Ninja Portal! Portal Ninja Tricks.
On another note, how do you guys like the new layout? Pretty good I hope!
Right guys, I'm off.
Chris.
