1. Constructing a Logical and Justified Production Plan
Audio Book
Dive deep into the subject with an immersive audiobook experience.
Logic and Flow in Production * **Chunk Text:** A high-quality plan includes logical sequencing and realistic time estimates. * **Detailed Explanation:** In design, order matters. If you apply a finish before you've finished sanding, the surface will be ruined. A logical sequence respects the physical properties of your materials and the limitations of your tools. * **Real-Life Example or Analogy:** Itβs like following a recipe. You can't frost a cake that is still in the oven. The production plan ensures every "ingredient" and "action" happens at exactly the right moment.

The Power of Justification * **Chunk Text:** A justification explains why a specific tool or time allocation is appropriate. * **Detailed Explanation:** Professional designers must be able to defend their process. If you use a laser cutter instead of a hand saw, you justify it by citing "precision," "repeatability," and "time-efficiency." * **Real-Life Example or Analogy:** Think of a lawyer in court. They don't just state a fact; they provide the evidence (the justification) to prove why that fact matters. --
