2 down...1 to go

There is only one more thing to hand in which is my Individual Short Animation. I chose to animate an old lady breaking it down bhangra style at a bus stop, though as I had never animated anything dancing before it wasn't actually as fun as it sounds. I got a little stuck with it but just ignored it for a fortnight and now its all edited and the music is on there and I'm feeling a little more confident with the thing. Will try to remember to put the link to it on Vimeo on here in a couple of weeks. I am so exciting to get it all handed in and done, I just want to be home and feeling all christmassy already!

Also as part of my Animation Futures Module, I did some design work for this 'ere blog so below is what I came up with. My train of thought was this 'what is the my realisation of Joy?'...a pug in a teacup...yeah...

Till I remember to write on this again, Farewell.
Postcard design for blog...yeah its pretty much a pug in a teacup...

The first post..eep

Why hello there people of the world wide web, how lovely to see you
I feel like this post, being the very first one, should be beautiful and amazingly thoughtout but seeing as
every subsequent post will be ramblings or just screaming, Im sure it will be fine =]
Ive just got back from Leeds, after attending the ThoughtBubble comic convention. It was a little bit awesome, though I dont think I've ever been around such a high concentration of nerds so I was a little uncomfortable at the amount of extremely unflattering and revealing fancy dress costumes in attendence. My boyfriend got to meet John Romita JR, shake his hand and get him to sign his Daredevil comic which meant there was a inane grin plastered to his face for the rest of the day, bless him =] I found some absolute bargains and plenty of interesting and beautiful posters and postcards so I was very content.
Currently having a tiny celebration on account of finishing the first draft of my report, which consists of eating refresher bars and listening to Flight of the Conchords...the celebration not the report, that consists of research, hard work and anguish.
oh and Ive now been banned from using any kind of sharp inplement after developing quite a skill for missing the bread and just carving up my own fingers, so i can only be trusted with using a spoon, though i sure with my level of clumsiness I'll manage to gouge out my eyes or something...
Bye!
