Week 4 (15th October) Learning in Motion

http://richwareham.blogspot.com/

I managed to complete my motion demo this week and was able to make it work how I wanted it. I think I was pretty happy with the final result because I successfully was able to include several aspects of motion together to demonstrate my potential in using this computer application.

One thing that really came out of developing content in motion was how much I genuinely enjoyed creating a piece of motion. I think that is an important thing that I have achieved in my second year so far because you can't just learn something, be good at it and not enjoy it. Otherwise, you are just going to get really bored and it's going to put you off working on it in the future. The part of motion that I really enjoyed doing at this point, was using the key frame editor to alter, change or move objects on & around the screen.

This is an important step in myself and my group moving towards knowing how to create some graphics for the forbidden planet assignment

I'm really interested in what else I can get out of these tutorials for motion because there is a lot more different aspects of motion that I can learn and include in both the forbidden planet and TV ident assignments.

I also need to plan out more clearly what visuals I can create that can work well and can provide a cheesy element to go with the theme of the forbidden planet musical. I can achieve this by drawing out some stills in the form of a storyboard and make notes to to what I plan to achieve for each storyboard frame.
