Like a kid asking for candy

10-23-08

CTV people were here…
at the moment I walked to the person for a business card
I remembered all that firm handshake talk and other stuff
but I really felt like that I was like a kid asking for candy.
Very happily I got one….
I’m very happy not because it is a key to my future, but because it was nice….
Ah…women’s sensitivity.
Anyways, final is still killing me slowly with its magic powers.

Cheer up!

On the path

10-03-08

Hey, you!
It’s stupid, I know….
How I wasted such a long time, I’ll never know
How I get so crazy…again, I’ll never know
How good can I be…don’t know

What I know:
1. still making the new animatic
2.making 3d assects along the way
3.thinking about a good voiceover or music for it
4.having fun and feel the LOVE.

Bye, you.

Colors

09-28-08

color, color, color
I’ve always wondered why my work is always so dark and not good looking or cute…
and I discovered that it is because I didn’t pay attention to color theory.

What an idiot!!!
I don’t believe it, I’m in term5…and thanks to Jaime…I finally get a little understanding about colors….
Now I can look at my stuff and go…nice colors~~~~

Still making lookframes and 3d models…
hoping to get some guides on the style…and after that, let the asset generation begin!!!!!

Animatic done

09-22-08

Finally, I’ve made up my mind.
Thanks to Robin, she’s great!
Now the project is moving into the direction of motion!!
The animatic is done, I have to admit I’m not as great as the other guys
but that’s no reason to stop doing what I want to do.
I’ll try to look for a good style for the first part this week!
Wish me Luck~~~

p.s. Watch Baccano! if you haven’t

Fear

09-19-08

It is, after all, just a another project, and there will be plenty if you have a job like this and you can’t freak out every single time. I keep telling myself this, but I’m still afraid of a lot of things. Somethings, I think it is funny how I don’t believe in time, but I still act as if nothing changes…well, I think I’ve come to believe in Descartes, but not that his argument is sound, only that it is the intuitions that makes all the difference.

I’m afraid of these things:
1. Am I creating the ideal method?
2.Does it look good enough?
3. Does it make sense(story)?
4.Would anybody want to use this???

I’m not a motion girl nor a programmer. I am ME, who enjoys solving problems, rather than just to make things look nice. I like, in fact, information design. Or communication design. I think it is the most important thing. Am I right? Not all the time, but I feel good now, I finally know where I’m at and where I could go in the future, I talked to couple of friends yesterday…nobody really knows what to do in their future, it is not only me and I’m just stupid like that….

Stressed…

09-17-08

I don’t quite understand the use of all this blogging, but I guess it make you feel better in a way.
Today,again, I changed lots of things, and I’m finally happy because?
I sorted things out…finally, took me a while but I did it…well.
I’m tired, not sleeping much, lots of thinking going on in my head everyday, I guess I’m not an all visual person,
nor was I ever one…..
So I’m back to where I started, does it feel better?
Indeed, I put in work, it didn’t work out?
You keep working on it!!
Just to make sure you are doing something rather than nothing.
And, I have to go home now….

Today is when I changed the whole game plan

09-12-08

Not really. What I’ve done is to forget about the web stuff and focus on motion. I may not be good enough, so what, is there ever a “enough” for motion? I don’t think so.I’m happy that I finished my moodboard. The next step would be refine storyboard still..since there has been a change of plan. I’ll try my best to make this less painful than it sounds…but I may not succeed.
Well…Good Luck Myself!

Blog It!

09-10-08

Ok, so my final is at storyboarding stage. I need to finish this and move on.
Storyboard is very very important, that’s why I spent some serious time here…I hope this will pay off later.
I’ll move on to moodboard, as soon as I finish the storyboard.
Well, I know assets are not going to be easy to create, so I’ll get lots of help.
There’s always someone else who can do certain things better than you.
And that’s ok, in fact, that’s good.Limitation is a good thing.
Getting ahead of myself here, I’ll do what I need to do and see what happens.

The truth is:I’m scared, excited, and happy.

Ok, now I’m using the new blog!

07-23-08

I know I should have update this one too, or maybe at least say something. Now it’s the time. I am officially using another blog, but I love this one just as much. Making blogs make me happy!

Old Blog

05-10-08

I decided to use the old blog and forget about the new one. Just don’t want to wasted too much time on these things. I have something more important this term. Good luck to myself!

I think, at least, I should post what it looks like, so that it’s not a total waste of time.

On the other hand, I’ll just direct you there. If you wish to, I love this blog!
