SWOT analysis of Character design module.

This module was about how to Create and develop a character from scratches to a functional and usable model sheet. This module allowed me to dig deeper in the process to create a game character, because we already had a similar module with the same name last year. We got introduce to the concept of model sheet which is a visual and comprehensible "scheme" of the character including expressions, gestures, ...,  and the most important for a 3D character ; front view, side view, and size. In the video game industry, this model sheet will have a reference purpose for the modeller.

Proper character model sheet.

SWOT analysis of my module mark :

• Strengths : My strength about this module is, in my opinion, my ability to imagine a character and a back story giving him a consistence in his world. I feel an technical improvement in my technique compared to the last year module. I use photoshop and a graphic tablet more easily and my knowledge about it have improved as I used it. I also used a set of colour suitable to his universe making him fitting more his universe.
• Weaknesses : A part of my weaknesses is that I have to many ideas and I have troubles to make a decision, this is making me lose time which is an other one of my weaknesses ; I have trouble to manage my time. I am often late on my schedule and struggle at the end of the module to catch up the late. This is making me stupid mistake such as forgetting to allocate a place for a character description as asked in the brief and, per consequent, making me lose percent on my mark.
• Opportunities : I could use my newly acquired skills to design some character and put them on a clothes personalisation web shop like "red bubble T-shirt design". I should design more character using model sheets to build myself experience and post it on my blog or an other social media / platform to have more view and more opportunity to have job request. 
• Threat : My threats are about miss time because of my weaknesses because when I feel that I'm struggling with time, I tend to scamp a bit even although I always try to complete clearly and the cleanest I can my subject and project.
