Week 6/38

Looking at last week's journal, what have you changed so that you can improve your work?

I try to make more efficient use of my time. When I am at college, I do things that I cannot do at home, and vice-versa.

How many hours have you animated this week?

6 hours

What did I accomplish this week?

I am working on animating a bear in flash, and lip-syncing in Maya.
I also got the oppourtunity to watch Persepolis in the cinema.

What did you learn this week?

Watching Persepolis showed me various things that can be done in 2D and with limited colour.

What stopped me from doing more?

I, myself stopped myself.

What will you do to make sure it never happens again?

I refuse to let it happen again.

Gesen chapter 4 continues

After about 2 weeks, I finally managed to get the next page of Gesen up online.
Read it on Drunkduck or Mangabullet.
The choice is yours.

Also, work has begun on a much needed Cast page for Gesen, and the Drunkduck page has receieved some updated navigation buttons, including a link here.

I will begin working on the comicdish mirror soon, it's just that I have to resize all the pages so far again, just for comic dish. I haven't abandoned that mirror and it will be getting some attention soon.

What did you learn this week?

I didn't really learn anything, I focussed on using techniques I've already learnt to complete the animation.

Spent too much time working on other things.

What will you do to make sure it never happens again?

I will try using a timetable to make use of my time more efficiently.

In terms of applying for university, so far I am strongly considering staying on at CONEL to go onto the Level 4 HND course.
