Reaction to Brief....

The brief for the virtual environments module initially seems quite challenging. Personally my past experience of using the 3ds max software was a bit of a struggle. I didn't take to it naturally last semester and felt that I had to work extremely hard in order to obtain good results.
Though saying that the potential ideas of the brief seem very interesting. It seems quite an enjoyable subject and I am looking forward to recreating my head in the 3d medium.
With respects to the group project, again this seems an interesting topic and will allow us to use 3ds max in a different way than I have previously done.
Prior experiences of working in groups hasn't been entirely successful as it can be difficult to motivate members, though it appears to be an interesting challenge - and with the volume of work that can arise when fully embracing a 3d project it feels fair that a group challenge will help control the workload.
I am reasonably positive about the brief, while also a lacking a little confidence in my abilities within the 3ds max platform.
