Mar 12—Week 9:
What are some things that are helping your learning in this class so far? What are some things that might be hindering you?
I've really learned a lot from the class aspect of this course, where if I have a problem with codecs or conversion or animation speed or some assorted issue I can facebook chat someone and find a solution very quickly. I'm also a huge believer in youtube, so if I search very specifically the "Marmalade D11 Converting Error" there are 500 other cowboys out there in the Wild Digital West who can tell me how they fixed their issue.
Another really helpful aspect of the course has been the in class viewing sessions, while hearing all the other student's ideas or watching their film clips (storyboards included) I can take inspiration and see news way to use the same tools I'm using to really completely change the way I make things.
Animation is a long inward struggle, just like when I started with Reason and Photoshop. When you try to make things in those programs you often find a problem and hit a roadblock, thus forcing you to work your way around it, that's how I believe you master these things. Reading manuals can only get you so far.
Happy St. Pats, ya filthy animals.
