OUGD503: Planning

In order to balance the multiple brief and modules running along side each other I've developed a strategy in order to allocate enough time for each module based on the upcoming deadlines. I plan to do an hour a day on each module as well as focusing on 2 modules or brief for 3hrs a day so I would mainly focus on two brief a day with an additional 1hr spent on the remaining briefs in the evening. The following images below showcase my plan for each day within a month view calendar, a brief description of what I will do on each day based on module, with brief being decided on a weekly basis based on rate of work produced.

However after a few weeks following the plan above I've decided to re-evaluate my progress and set mini deadlines for each brief in order to complete everything in time for the deadline. This lead me to create a list of brief and remaining tasks, which I then set deadlines for based on what I thought was achievable in the time I had left. Once these had been written I went into Google Calendar and create small task to be completed for each day until the deadline which would allow me to meet each of the smaller deadlines I had set for myself. I've also colour coded each module and studio brief to make it easier to identify what I'm working on each day.
