Another Week Has Come and Gone

Can you believe it? The days are going by so fast! Next thing you know, we'll all be graduating from Animation with a smile on our face and a career on our minds. :D

  • Knowledge skill +3
Adobe Illustrator skill +1 (because we learn something new about it every day)
Time Management skill +.5
Pre-Calculus skill +1
English Vocabulary Skill +.5
  • Curiosity that has arisen
Still trying to fully figure out Adobe Illustrator (might start calling it Ai). Haven't quite gotten the hang of it yet (getting there :D). I'll probably get it more as I go along. I already know enough to get me through my projects and that's what's important.
Pre-Calculus is starting to throw me off some. A few of the questions bamboozle me, but again, I'll probably learn as I go along.

  • This really grinds my gears
Ai bugs me. Probably because I'm not used to it, but it still irks me. I wish that there was another way to fill in the strokes. In every other program I have used, all of the lines automatically connected when they crossed. Not in Ai. It might have something to do with the fact that they are vectors. Eh, I'll suck it up. :P
Still having a hard time sleeping. I either don't fall asleep for a while or wake up at an ungodly hour and don't fall back asleep. Hopefully this doesn't last long. I function just fine. I'm not sleep deprived, but a good night's rest would be nice for a change. I'm tired.
Time: Why is there not enough of you? Two and a half hours is hardly enough time for Animation. Time flies when you're having fun :D

  • This made me go "Squee!"
I finally got my drawing into Ai and am currently working on it. This felt like a big accomplishment. I am also getting better with the curved lined! :D
So many friends!
Reading up on some video game tricks used by Gearbox on Borderlands 2. That was especially cool. ^^
More blooogs. :D I didn't think I would like blogging, but I do. It's a new way to express myself. >w<

  • Awesomesauce Link O the Week!

  • My bellybuttons on the link
A really cool little animation :D It's about 7 minutes long. It's about two men who are out fox hunting and wind up in an epic battle (Earth versus Sky) for the hand of a beautiful women. The irony is that they are fighting amongst one another. The fox is a Kitsune from Japanese Folk Lore and it has the ability to change shape to trick people (if I am not mistaken). Needless to say, it made easy work of those two hunters. Haha.
Foxes are the cutest >w<
