Contributions to Collaboration 18/07/09

At the beginning of this semester when we learnt of our new team groups, I sort of became the project manager of the group and felt that it was my responsibility to make sure that the team would progress and achieve the desired goals. Throughout the project my contributions to collaboration include pretty much all things water hence my specialisation being advanced water. As we were doing an underwater hotel I took on this role because I wanted to make sure that it would all work out. My other contributions include helping team members with designing the interior of the shell and minor texturing. Most of the texturing that I was responsible for was the underwater environment, making sure that it looked as realistic as possible. I also contributed to the team blog as well as the videos. I feel that the last two videos which are the trailers for the Hydropolis are some of the best videos that my team have created and really capture the essence of the Hydropolis.
To conclude I just wanna say that learning to design and build a project with newer group members has really helped broaden my knowledge in collaborating with others. Also learning how to cope with other group members and project issues has also taught me a few things; such as issues that could of been handled differently and better between team members and the project itself.
