This week was all about putting the pieces together. We took the groundwork laid in weeks 1 & 2 and finally got some stuff on screen.
Tasks:
Created & Implemented boids with modular behaviors. Created a few behaviors to keep them on screen, disperse, etc. (12 hrs)
Kept the DevOps page updated and assigned/verified/moved tasks (30 mins)
Organized general meeting on friday, helped lay out tasks (1 hr)
Attended writers meeting, helped compile script for programmers (1hr)
Created survey questions and entered them into google forms (1hr)
Built scene from models provided by AJ (1hr)
Multiple programmer meetings to work and plan for week (3 hrs)
Total: 19:30 hrs (estimated)
Positive:
Finally having a framework on screen has really helped me figure out the path to completing this project. Getting to a vertical slice is feeling a lot more attainable. I also think the team really got the concept this week. Everyone's work is really blending well, and has a consistent style/vision.
Negative:
This was a pretty unbalanced week, ideally I would have spread out the work a lot better. This is something I will try to improve at in the future. I think part of it is just the nature of working on such a complex multidisciplinary project, but I feel like we can do better with delegation and use of the relief roles.
