SWOT Analysis of the module

»
Strengths
I always try to produce a very good standard of work, I never settle on a piece of work, I will always work at the tiny elements until im 100% happy with the final outcome. Im creative by nature and very much enjoy learning new methods of production, both of which will be hugely important in this module.
Weaknesses
My total lack of experience with any 3D modeling software coupled with the steep learning curve of 3DS max meant this module was always going to be a big challenge. After my first few sessions with the software I couldn't imagine how I was going to create one 3D model let alone 3. Slowly but surely however i’ve learnt more and more about the software and have started to create what I believe to be good models. However their are things I want to do with the software which I still cannot either figure out myself or find tutorials for.
Opportunities
This module is obviously an opportunity to learn a new skill, a new method of multimedia production. I have always wanted to explore 3D modeling but have always been put off by the complexity of the software and finding the time to learn it. Im always looking to extend my skill set and I will hopefully finish this module with a good base knowledge of 3D modeling and look to extend this knowledge in the future.
Threats
Time is what is concerning me the most at the moment. It may sound pretentious but I dont doubt that I will be able to create a very good piece of work (may not have said that a few weeks ago) however I need to attempt to do that in only a few weeks, give me a year and no doubt my models will be marvellous.... unfortunately university is not that generous.
