The Final Year begins...

Well this is it, the 3rd and final year of my animation course. It's gone so fast I can't believe it, well since it's my final year I'll go out with a bang (hopefully).

Yesterday we were all breifed about what to expect in the final year and we were all put into groups. The group I got involved in is J.B's group, I don't know his full name but he seems to have a lot of experience under his belt. His idea is called Dummy, its one of the art figures called ergonomes, I think. Anyways the thing comes to life and I believe it starts to wander around it's masters' desk. After a while it begins to feel lonely, so it starts to look for a mate for company (sounds like it wants to get freaky to me) so it decides to go on e-bay and see if it can find one. J.B seems to know all the short cuts to create the least possible problems for us. After telling him what my strengths are, which is drawing, then modelling followed closely by animation. He wants us to present our thoughts on his storyboarding and see if we can make any suggestions on how to improve it. Right now I'm currently waiting for him to e-mail his storyboards, haven't recieved it yet though. Hopoefully it will come soon, oh and just as a side note, even though I'm not the sharpest tool in the box I'll be jumping around helping others as much as I can.
Peace!
