FMP - Production Log
Name Thomas Giblin
Date: 03.02.14
Week 1- The first thing that I did for my FMP is think of an idea and create a scenario based around the idea that I thought to do. I choose to make a armour set
for multiple characters from World of Warcraft. I decided to do this because I am a big fan of the game and know what kind of thing to do for a design, this gave
me a small stepping stone to create my designs but I also did research on different armours from World of Warcraft and other games that are similar as well as
doing research on different armour over history and from films and television programmes. Whilst I gathered the research I made sure that I was collecting the
correct research that would help me with the rest of my FMP. I also put up a questionnaire so that people could give me feedback on what they would like to see
in the armour sets. As well as doing the previous things I also started my production log and my schedule for the project. This helped me to manage my project
and see what need to be done and when also it helped me to keep track of what I would have done in weeks prior to the one that I would currently be on. I
decided that it would be best to update my production log and my schedule weekly so that I could keep track and on top of everything that I had to do.

Week 2- This week I set myself the task of creating some ideas for my final major project. I did this my making a mind map with the four classes that I was
creating armour on in each corner on the mind map. Then (thanks to the research that I compiled) I was able to look into each class and list the main features for
each class and (judged from popular feedback) was able to list some of the features that the community would enjoy to see implemented into the designs. After
brainstorming ideas onto my mind map I started to plan how I was going to design my project and the best ways to go about doing so.
