First Group Session

The first group session was really interesting as I got to find out what everyone else was doing with their projects and what stage they were at in their FMP. I was happy to find out that I was the only person that had actually started shooting images. But at that stage I was still behind on my blog. Which I need to make sure doesn't happen as I will end up making more work for myself. At this point I am focusing a little more on my other projects just because they have a sooner deadline and I find it difficult to focus my full attention on more than one project at a time. I have revised my timeplan since my proposal as I feel like I needed to be more specific with details of what I would be doing each week. I also need to pin down all of my photographers, models and studio space.
