ANIMATION AND ALL ITS GLORY!

Today and the past few days we have been working on our first 2-d characters. You have to scan them into the computer and then save it to a flash drive, upload it to our computer. Then bring it up in Adobe© Illustrator. It's really hard. I drew a person. Everyone else is better than mine and I'm thinking about giving up on my original character idea and just gonna draw something really basic; a ripped up maroon colored heart with only threads holding it together. And some eyes maybe a mouth and limbs and there you go. That should satisfy Ms. Licata enough so I don't have to show her and the rest of my class the horrible original I have...Anyway we learned about copyright and how people can get sued or a video post on YouTube©  can be instantly taken down because it references even the tinniest bit to a real movie, book, tv show etc. Stupid gov't and their censors.

I know we don't use this anymore, but I think its cool. I mean, I never knew you could do this with a computer. Granted this is not a mac but... better than nothing.

ANIMATION AND ALL ITS GLORY!

I would like to say that in animation class we worked on a really cool project. Unfortunetlly I cannot. All it was was more review on safety rules, how to sit at a computer properlly. Can you believe that?! There is actually a proper way, picture and all, to sit at a computer. You know sit up straight, don't stare at the computer for too long. Feet must be firmly on the floor. Yeah I cant reach, and my chair is all the way down. I hope to learn 2 and 3-d animation. But its not taught till towards the end I think and I am impatient. They say patience is a virtue... It's really frustrating right now!! GRR! Can we make pretty pictures move now? What has made me happy this week? Going to BOCES

Day 4, September 8th 2011

My second day of school. Had first Health class of this year. It's gonna suck! I like Math so far because; well its review. So it is easy. Although I doubt Trig will be that hard. As long as you have a calculator and remember the acronym for it. I really am looking forward to BOCES classes. Killed a lot of trees with all that paper work. Oh well. A 50 page packet on norm school stuff. And you have to read it all. Hmmm? How many people do you think, including teachers, read those things cover to cover?
