.:Ideas, I:.

I was thinking today that i should do an animation on global warming, i thought that after seeing The Inconvenient Truth (the AL Gore movie) and considering I'm in geography, i think i should do something to do with global warming and or climate change. I could have hints and tips on how to help our planet without going out of your way to do so in my animation. Also something that makes my idea better is the fact that in geography we've been studying global warming and climate change, so that means i already have all the knowledge i need to.
My main characters will be an Arctic fox and a penguin, the reason behind this being that they are both commonly found in the arctic, they're quite different to each other and a lot smaller then most of the other arctic animals.

.:Key Hole Tool Practise:.

Today in class, we were taught about the key hole tool which has an icon of a box with a little plus sign. This is a tool the enables you to (after putting it at the beginning and end of a certain amount of frames) click on the moving truck icon so your characters moves fluently from their starting point to their finishing point, that you choose.

I had a bit of a practise at using this tool today, mind you it did'nt end all that well because the bell rang, therefore leaving me with no time to touch it up. The main character in this little animation has not had all the white around it photo shopped out, so it lots kind of weird. I suggest looking at it and pretending that you don't see the white around the penguin.

! ~First Blog~ !

This is my first blog for the term! Hopefully I'll keep on top of my reflections and not get behind. Don't mind my spelling, I've never been a good speller and I'm not starting now.
So, good luck with reading any of my stuff :P
