Diaries
Within my blog, I have separated my diaries into two categories:
Development Diaries - These posts discuss changes and alterations to my work, planning for future development and reflecting on the task at hand.
Production Diaries - These posts will discuss and evaluate my decisions when creating any final pieces of production.
These diaries may not be uploaded within the exact order made - some of them have been developed upon throughout the project, an example being my production diaries, and therefore may appear in the 'wrong' places.
