What obstacles have I come up against? Original schedule? How have I and project changed?

My final year at university has taught me a lot about the way I work. I have understood the hard way that I find it very difficult to give my all to more than one project at a time. I need to focus all of my creativity on one project at a time for it to be successful. I have thoroughly enjoyed everything about this year, including the stress. But I undertook the role of Editor of AnonStyle as part of my WBL unit, not knowing how much of time it would consume. I had to put the launch of the magazine off several times because it wasn't ready and then I was doing my dissertation. So the time I should have spent developing my FMP was spent on getting the magazine fully finalised and ready. I am not ashamed to say that I wouldn't have done it any other way. Every project I have taken on as taught me something different and I would have liked to have more time on this FMP because it has the potential to be amazing but I chose to give half of my time to the magazine.

In my original production schedule I stated that I would post my progress of images and ideas on the FB page for synesthesia. My first post was very successful and was the basis for me thinking that would be a good idea for the rest of the project. However, each time I have posted on the group since then I have had a very minimal response. I'm not sure whether this is due to the length of the post that I was sending or the time that I was sending it but I only got 1 or 2 responses. I think from this point onwards I will only post short questions. I think this has massively hindered my project process because the website is supposed to be about synesthesia and because I don't have it, it relies a lot on the ideas and feedback from the FB page.

I think when I wrote my proposal for this project I had a lot of ideas of what sort of media would be featured on the website rather than what the material would actually be. I think because I was unsure of what I would find on the FB page I couldn't plan each element or shoot. Therefore after the imagination photoshoots I was unsure of where my project would lead. Especially as I had such a large gap between those shoots and starting again because of the magazine. I think the project has worked well with my spontaneity because it is an exciting project and the majority of my inspiration has come from my pinterest board.
