CoP 3 Planning and Timetabling

Following on from last year where I did 3D and researched into the 'Uncanny Valley', I will be continuing from this by researching into the development of technology and how far we've come over the past few years. I will be doing this mainly for my dissertation but I'd like to do something like this for my extended practice however I don't know what I'd like to do for that yet. For CoP I'd like to research into motion capture and how more companies are using it instead of keyframe animation, I'd also like to research into how rendering engines have enhanced dramatically over the years i.e. from the film aesthetic of 'Life of Pi' to the new 'Jungle Book'.      

For the beginning of this year I have decided that I will be more organised than the past two years because this year really does matter! So I will be doing this by planning out my year week by week and knowing what to do each day. I'm doing this by creating a calendar like plan for the two semesters I have left at university, I've also printed off the module overview for CoP so that I can keep on track with my work and not fall behind (hopefully).

I feel like this year will be an interesting one because I'll be able to work on what I want and start learning new skills in the field I would like to end up in at the end of this year. With my dissertation I feel like I need to do a hell of a lot of research and create multiple experimentations within different 3D softwares so that I can have a good enough starting point for my dissertation.
