This week has been both hectic and exciting at the same time. My ianimate journey is getting off to a bumpy start with finals week chaos and the summer approaching quickly.
FUN FACTS:
My teacher's name is Bill tessier and he works at Dreamworks. You can look him up on google, and the bio will literally knock your socks off. I am the only girl in my class *shocker* and the youngest by far, which also as you can imagine means I am the least experienced. But it motivates me to learn and to prove myself.
Ianimate is set up much like facebook, youtube, skype, blackboard, and any forum for animation. its awesome that we are all able to see eachother and have the work critiqued by our instruction live even though all of the students (professor included) are international. There is one student that goes to Gnomon in my class who is a CG generalist. He says he loves it there, that the course work is intense, but that the results are worth it. I believe it. ............................................................................................................................................................
NOT-SO-FUN-FACTS:
Technical difficulties are...(insert explicit word here #$%*)
1. Registered under the wrong username (Jennifer. Sanborn) resulting in the confusion of my teacher and my classmates, and Jenn herself, who thought most of the messages from ianimate on the upcoming course to be SPAM
2. Being unable to connect using adobe acrobat connect…because I thought I was having some major technical difficulty, but it turns out that that I logged in at the wrong time. (9:30 pm Pacific time) soooo here I was thinking that clearly Mac Pro was at fault, when it was my poor reading.
3. Maya/digicel sketch book are not the easiest to learn. And the file formatting isn’t either
anyways, I ought to be finishing my finals. But I was very excited that I actually got my technology to work...FINALLY!
