Project! - Finally!

After a series of discussion and consultation, my group has decided to choose "Jimmy's Fantastic Adventures" for our storybook. Most of the thought process of selection of story, layout and font, etc are documented in the design document which is accessible here:

Our group's work is divided into and handled this way:
1. Drawing - Wei Man
2. Coloring and Printing - Serena
3. Font, layout and grid (Design specification and document) - Jianda and Gerald.

I have no choice but to comment on the work distribution efficiency as to warn others not to do this in future. I feel that our group's work distribution isn't the best.

Since everything is already done and submitted, it is too late already. However, it is good to do self-reflection:

I personally feel that each and everyone of us should do a character or background, inclusive of drawing and coloring. Font,layout and grid selection should be done at meet up to have a common agreement on the appropriateness of it. Our way of job distribution causes some pictures undrawn due to time constrain and pictures uncolored. Due to the late production of pictures, the layout and grid also came late (although font is easily selected and done). Lesson is learnt. :)

I am left with not much time for other exams. I'll just have a last post on my final words and conclusion.
