SoUnD

hey, after this first year ive decided i really want to get into editing and sound etc. Andy asked me to watch a few films and to listen to the sound. I recently watched an awesome film called Night Watch.



its a russian film and was made in 2004 and is the first part of a trilogy, (followed by Day Watch and Twilight Watch-which is due for release in 2009) It an awesome film with some stunning SFX and the sound is amazing, Theres one particular scene were the main character Anton, is making a drink and every single sound jus sounds amazing, I cant describe it any other way but the sound guys on this film knew exactly what they were doing and it all creates a great sense of atmosphere, i personally dont think the film would be as good as it is if it wasnt for the sound :) check it out! here a trailer for u all.. im such a nerd.. :)

End of Term

So scarey our first year is over. cant believe this time last year I'd been offered a place its crazy how fast time flys!! Im looking forward to wat the second year has in store for us. and im looking forward to expanding our class with first years!
cant waaaaaaaaaaait for summer though, im spending it down here with holly and charlotte in our girls house. cant wait :) ARRGH im so excited about EVERYTHING :D

Heloooo

End of term is finally here so I thought id write another blog.
My animation foR Moonut was so frustrating, Im not particularly good with flash but i wanted to challenge myself. the end result is alrite but needs a lot of work.

Im goin to submit it in my moving portfolio but Im not ready for it to be given to the client just yet, (it was a 'backup') any way so im not to worried about it.

overall ive really enjoyed having group discussions and creating storyboards, and ive loved watching other people animate to my storyboards :)

This experience has given me a little taste in what it would be like to work in a studio and ive really enjoyed myself :D

rathergoodstuff

rather good stuff, is the animating team who create the really stupid but very funny crusha advert. i recently found this stop frame animation by the same group of people. and its called 'Beer Beer Beer'

Music vids,

Browsing charlottes blog i noticed a britney video which i love, another of my fave vids is coffee and tv. which features a charming milk carton made made the Jim Henson creature shop.



Enjoy! its so cute

animatics

hello.

recently Charlotte asked me to produce animatics for my storyboards, at first I was a bit unsure because I had forgotten how to use premiere but once i got back into it i discovered it was kind of like riding a bike and i hadnt forgotten at all :) I also used sound and found the sound effects and music I wanted on a royalty free website http://www.partnersinrhyme.com/pir/PIRsfx.shtml it has a wide variaty for free and is really simple to use :)

DeAtHnOtE

Deathnote is an anime which i am obsessed with, there are 37 episodes spread over two series and im currently on episode 6 of series 2, its really really good, and is soo gripping. the episodes ALWAYS end on a cliff hanger which is irritating but a good way to keep you watching, they are based on graphic novels and there are also two live action movies mixed with CGI out now which i saw a few weeks ago and they are amazing ;)
