Hello.

So we're in our final term SCAREY. anyways. new stuff. Im still working on my animation and its coming together verrrry slowly.. im not going to lie and say its a piece of cake because to me, animating is one of those things I find really hard to do, so once this piece is finally finished (hopefully in a few weeks) ill be more than happy.

DREAMWEAVER: I recently signed up to do an intensive dreamweaver workshop with my uni, its a course over about 6 weeks with an exam at the end, on how to build websites from scratch, the first lesson I had was the past friday, 7 hours of knowledge went into my brain that day!, I actually surprised my self, and found Dreamweaver a very nice tool to work with, the only thing I found difficult was keepiing folders in specific places, if dreamweaver couldnt find something, it wouldnt open it... but I guess Ill have to work on it. :) At the end of the workshop after the exam Ill get an recognised adobe qualification certificate for dreamweaver cs4. which is great, only thing is If i wanted the certificate to remain valid Id have to resit it everytime they brought out a new dreamweaver, but anyway... Im sure it will help me immensly in the future, just opening up a few more doors and so on.

MENTOR.: We all got asssigned a mentor for this term to help us learn what its like to be in the industry. My mentor is called Tom Evans, hes a free lance animator/designer and seems great.
we have emailed a few times and his emails have been very insightful into the life of a free lance animator, its also been very interesting learning about how other people get into the industry and what made them decide to take the paths they did, Hopefully Ill learn a lot more about Tom in the next few weeks and Id like to be able to take what he teaches me with me into what ever work place I end up in :) check out his website http://www.tomwe.com

bye bye for now x
