time for a catch up

well its been over a week now since my last post so i thought it was about time for me to catch up on things iv been doing, il be adding pics later to show some of what ive done.

after doing a load of research on Hideaki Anno who is the animator i chose to do my essay on i finished my essay. early for once, which is really surprising as its usually the night before the deadline im writing it at 3 am. this time i have it finished and i have proof read it and i think i have done pretty well so im going to check with phil and see what he thinks and if i should re-write any of it.

apart from finishing my essay i have seen a new look on uni after my huge cockup of my last project. im now really enjoying uni even tho its a big culture change for me and im sure im not the only 1, but im now looking at what i can learn from uni and not trying to show what im good at. i also want to find out how much its going to cost to get a character model created like the 2 creatures in the cabnets for a character im working on in my spare time.

anyway im ranting on about random things now so back to the work lol, iv done a lot on my story boarding which im now just refineing and finding sequences to add between my scenes, i have also realised that quite a bit of my animation i can re-use and this will save me a lot of time drawing.

anyway the only reason im on here atm is because i cant sleep so im using this time to get some work done and update my blog, my next update will be as soon as my cam finishes charging so hopefully tomoz if i remember, anyway im off to try and get some more sleep, gnight.

Hi Alan - I can't sleep either! In regard to your essay, why not post it on your blog, and I'll respond to it there and then?

It was good talking with you the other night; and I'm genuinely looking forward to your presentation on Friday; remember - no more used car salesman stuff; relax, be confident - I'm always looking for reasons to give good news, as opposed to bad; sometimes - indeed, often - a tutor is looking, not for perfection, but rather for signs of growth and personal development.

Now, get some sleep! :-) Haha!
