Assessments & VFX101 Stuff.

Well Well Well...
Here we are in week one of second term. Already.
I must say, looking back on my original walking wooden man- i have made vast improvements. I'm quite proud, though im still not overly happy with the way its working. I think I should slow it down a little bit, not only his walk- but also the foreground. Have a look and see what you think- and perhaps leave me a comment?
Here is a link to my Animated Walk Cycle
I'm very nervous and excited about our 2 minute animation (assignment 2 of vfx101), we have the freedom to do anything that we wish. But the thing is- with that much freedom- where do i start? I have had idea after idea, and i dont seem to be getting anywhere with them. Im thinking of doing a stop motion animation and using the hidden room up the stairs. But... im still kind of unsure. Perhaps I could draw it? But that would take a lot of patience...although i suppose thats what animation is all about. patience.
Theres a really great poem that my boyfriend has written- it actually got published in a poetry book. Its called "death personified". I want to do an animation for it. it is just excellent. But its such a good poem, i dont think i'll do it justice if i attempt it for my first animation. I should perhaps have a chat to Andrew about it.

I'm so stuffed for vis101. I havnt started my essay yet. I think i will ditch work this weekend and cram cram cram. I'm told that its bad and i shouldnt do it that way. I agree completely, I'm a fool. But as long as i pass- i'll be happy. *please let me pass* I blame it all on procrastination!!

Mpi104 is due tomorrow and this is it~! :-O
I'm actually quite happy about it, because i have been blogging over the break, and i feel like i actually have a chance of getting pretty damn good marks in something. lol. its probably the only chance i'll have. lol.

just wanted to say your walk cycle is looking pretty cool.. the new background suits your character more then the city one u posted on the forum..
