Entry #30




Character proof (just the progress not uploading for submission)

So I haven't done digital stuff before... personally I think this looks well 'bad' but no no, I shouldn't talk myself down... this is what practice is for... and reasons why I bought a wacom to improve.

Pearl the character has been draw then coloured in photoshop, today I placed him in flash and Jack showed me how to export the character ready for placement in after effects, this was very useful I really was confused about the process and wanted re insurance and a answer of how it is to be done correctly.

I have not attempted a 2D production before, some things I don't know and my things will be learned on the way, fellow class mates lend a hand time to time and I thank them for that.

These days I feel comfortable with photoshop, which is nice. As for after effects, that program everyday learning little things about it I never knew before.

And flash is a whole other story I need to familiarizes myself with the short cuts tools and generally teach myself the in's and out's of the program my knowledge is limited, I will be using CS5 flash for the animation of Pearl, Wesley and Paris, CS5 has new features like the bone tool, I must find and watch tutorials to learn learn learn!

On another note finalization of character designs needs to be done I am itching to have the final designs and be able to say "that's them there my final character, they won't be changing"...
This is great because it is time for character model sheets, this shall be fun!

I leave you know with a pearl of wisdom;
'The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra'
