I found the minor project to be one of the tougher projects after completing the premise, the reason behind this is mainly due to the modelmaking as compared to before I was initially doing more character-based modeling is moving on to more environmental based item and designs. the initial design stage and researching wasn't too harsh for me to follow as thanks to Premise only had a general idea of where I want to go with my work, one of the major setbacks I had during the minor project time scale was the cutback of the initial set and what was can be implemented into it so instead of doing an entire street leading up to a singular attic room it was more streamlined down to the bare essentials of what was going to be shown from the book even the eaves that the book mentioned the children going through to get to the uncle's room in the first place. after I had the initial objects modeled mapped out another painstaking process was the layout of the room on which I was quite met
Hi Coyle - so it seems as if the idea of 'gender' might be a really useful prism through which to analyse and unpick Houseki No Kuni. The REALLY important balancing act to strike with this assignment is to understand that you're using your 'own choice' as a vehicle by which to demonstrate your understanding of the theories, so you need to ensure the technical/theoretical content re. gender theory is really tip-top and at the heart of your assignment. There is always a rich seam of discussion around the ways in which fictional universes challenge/subvert gender roles through character design and character arcs. The other thing to bear in mind is, even though you've got more words to write, you still need to really narrow your focus; can I suggest you know prepare an additional mind-map in which you look specifically at 'Houseku No Kuni & Gender representation/identity' as the territory for exploring.
