Goodbye and Hello

Last year (my 3rd year in my Digital Media degree) I produced my first short cell animation entitled ‘Orville’ about the misadventures of little alien. Producing ‘Orville’ was an experience I learned a lot from. I’ve returned again to complete a year of Honours for the same degree – to produce ‘Fly, Baby, Fly’- to build on all I learned from ‘Orville’.

As the subheading suggests, I’ve started this blog as a sort of progress diary on my Honours Project – a short 2D cell animation called ‘Fly, Baby, Fly’ (momentarily called ‘Fly, Bye, Baby’ – until my paper class pointed out it had connotations of a drive by shooting :S)

TO MYSELF & MY SUPERVISOR/S . . .

I’ve noticed of late that I’m losing track of where I’ve been progressing with this project. My mind is constantly considering things, so much so that by the time you have a chance to respond to ‘that document I emailed you last Thursday’ it’s old news and I have something else to propose.

Hopefully this blog will keep us on the same page. And save a lot of time explaining things too. :)

TO MY FAMILY & FRIENDS . . .

If last year is anything to go by, very soon the production of ‘Fly, Baby, Fly’ will kick into full swing and I’ll be a fairly absent entity (more so than now). No longer the ever lingering green dot on gmail chat. No longer the quick facebook respondee (well . . . maybe). Haha . . .

This blog will hopefully explain my absence . . . and clear a lot of mundane conversation (of me explaining where I am with this all) for when I do see you. I much rather hear about you anyway.

Your baby is so cute and I quite like how it's called "fly baby fly"

The story made me think of Dumbo when Dumbo was delivered by a stork.

Gluck with it. I can't wait to see when it's completed.

Luv u!

Oh wow!! Good luck with the your new animation.

Once again, all you have to do it put in the time, because you already got the talent ;)
