pretty graph editors are pretty, especially in step-tangent mode. those seemingly random, yet totally geometric-looking ARE PRETTAY.

So my terrifically terrible Superman painting was reviewed by the lec [Carson!] and he just, laughed [in a good way] then presented me with some commandments to follow by when painting with Photoshop. And I promise that he did the exact same thing, right in front of me, from the beginning to the end. Here's his result compared to mine *pokerface* O.o *jumps off Penang Bridge*

Animating the flour sack has been though, but not impossible. After 3 hours, i finally got the blarrdy thing working! fully keyframed, now waiting for my lecturer to freak out, as i doubled the time of the animation =.= BRAIN SO MUCH IMAGINASHUN.

So, Ridley Scott's epic movie, Prometheus' Visual Effects reel is out and they look AMAZING! *___* One thing I noticed though, is that through-out the entire production process, there is so much detail weighted in and applied. However in the final composite, what you see in the movie is most likely covered with dust, hence taking out all those details the modellers  texture artists and digital sculptors have work so tirelessly on :(

Choo! Choo! you hear that? that's how my week is gonna go by this week! so many awesome assignments to be handed in this week, and trying my best NOT to rush them, but do them in an orderly manner. Also, do you realise when you have lots of work, your desktop and desktop [your desk-top] becomes more and more cluttered? Also here's a shot of my upcoming final project, in pre-vis state [ yes Farida, it's for you] Yep, i managed to sneak in a little of Portal in there. The floursack is basically Chell. It's even dressed like her!

So apparently my latest assignment submission did not really fancy my Sire. Therefore, I shall now beg for mercy.

A prelude to the semester's final projects have begun! Here's what I gotta do over this week: 1. Design a freakin' penthouse, IN PERSPECTIVE! 2. complete 80% 3D modelling, which is now at around 0.25% complete. That's me virtually literally flipping a table out of the window [but failed] 3. FLOUR SACK! aww yeah i have to act like one over the weekend :D the video will be flour-larious! 4. Inception! gotta write a 3 page long review, scene breakdown, act breakdowns, shot breakdowns 5. Let's see if this saturday my group will be able to meet up PROPERLY with 100% attendence. I have a feeling one will say 'no petrol' and the other will say 'i'm sick' or  'busy'. we haven't even finalised our script yet! 6. WORST SUPERMAN DRAWING EVER. YES. I did that. I ripped off Superman's trousers, leaving him only in undies and boots. EVIL ME! and I gave him rocket shoes O.o

That picture was taken this morning in my backyard. Monsoon sunrises are something beautiful I just discovered, and sunrises in whole, are. just. BEAUTIFUL. They signify hopes and goals of the day and what I wish to achieve today is to not get screwed by the lecturer, for losing my Maya scene (.mb) file.
