X-Mas Post! 2011 (Week 16)

Made a quick Wishlist in the computer lab.  Week 16, i've done nothing. Been sick the past week, watching Twin Peaks, trying not to puke, and missing my cats.  But, now need to start on my next semester short and finish re-editing my stop-mo short.  Will get on that tomorrow! I swear! (I'll try...)

XMAS WISHLIST

Week 14/15 last week

Updating so late :(

Week 14 and 15 was spent working on my Stop-mo film, Intuitive final, and 3D test.

I'm gonna post 2 up here, my stop-mo one is too big:

They built a door next to my desk for the new experimental classroom! Look how clean my desk is! Cleaned it over the weeked, should have took a "before" shot. It was full of plates and cups. ( I stopped counting how many cups were on my desk when I got to 12...)

The A115 creepy desks at night when no one is in here...

All i'm gonna say is the last 2 weeks were extremely stressful. No sleeping, and all of these were made in 1 day except for the intuitive that took hours spread over the 2 weeks while catching up on essays allllll my other work.

Now i'm in the lab. re-editing my stop-mo film.  Should have it finalized by tonight or tomorrow.

I think this semester went okay, I actually like how weird the 3D test turned out, If I were to re-do it differently.  I've met great people and am now am spending the holidays here at CalArts. Missing my cats and food.

Week 13

Blogging at 3 am because I can't sleep.
Tomorrow i'm doing some voice recording in the morning and this is me and thomas with burce bickford!

I also have a 6 page essay due on tuesday which I have been working on for hours :( I know i'm gonna end up almost crying in the lab monday night. ughhh i suck at writing essays

The Intuitive assignment was the lip sync one I posted for last week because I finished it earlier.
But my to do list is:
6 Page Essay for History of Animation
6 Page Essay for Writing Arts
Paper for Dinner with Animation Class
3D cut-out film
Live Action film
Stop-Mo film
Intuitive Final (24 second lip sync)

some of these are due in a few days, some in 2 weeks (2 more weeks of school!!!!)

and this week in stop-mo Mike brought in his Corpse Bride puppets! It was really cool and nice of him to bring in these $30,000 puppets for us and showed us some cool time lapse of animators shooting on the set.

Enjoy photos of amazingly well made puppets, excited students, and blurry photos from my HD phone camera.

and here is a puppet I made. Don't worry it's not for my stop-mo film I made this in about 5 secs at the puppet cabaret show on friday

I hope my mom sees where all the tuition money is going to!
