I feel rather accomplished. The professor in my flash class is pleased with the Nike Advertisement flash I made for homework.

I finally learned how to keep a flash from looping...and if you noticed, the entire ad was a clickable link to Nike's website. With each day I work on something flash related, I become more comfortable with the program. I hope to submit a solo submission sometime very soon.

Meanwhile, I still gotta knock out those credits for the Lady Noir collab, but then again, I also need...y'know...CREDITS...lol. The deadline RedHarvest set up for the collaborators is tomorrow, and he wants it submitted by Valentines Day. I'll try to knock them out in a day or two after the SuperBowl.

I also figured out something I can easily do, CHEAPLY, for the stop-motion animation homework for "History of Animation." inspired by Don Hertzfeldt, it'll be hand drawn on white paper, as the characters interact with each other through hand-made ripples/folds/tears in the paper. Maybe even interacting with each other with live props on top of the paper. Additionally inspired by JohnnyUtah's experiment with stop-motion, I can do this with a camera on a tripod looking at an angled mirror so objects on the paper can be flat. I have a friend who's taking photography at the same community college I'm going for animation, and he has the camera, tripod, even lighting equipment.

I'm excited to get to work on it! Moreover, I can import each frame into flash where I can lay a soundtrack over it, and submit it to the portal as a flash animation, so you guys can enjoy it too! I gotta jet now; just getting out of flash class, and I'll see you guys later. Tonight and tomorrow? Drinks to celebrate!

Film at Eleven!
