First Day

where are you on the Dreamer/Doer spectrum (why) and what area(s) of Media Arts are you going to test-drive (have you ever produced an animation/cinematic/photography masterpiece? What are your goals for this course? What will be your accomplishment?)? Include at least one image of your own art (what are you proud of?). 

I think I am in the middle of the Dreamer or Doer spectrum. Like how the article define Dreamer, I usually have a lot of thought when starting something and will very soon have other idea coming out. When that happens, I always end up having a lot of projects which is only a third done. This is my Dreamer side.

Like how the article define Doer, I feel like "a slave to the structural environment of your day job and find it difficult to go “off the map” and innovate." When I am working on my class assignments, I always follow every single rules the teacher made. I just can't go off the map. I can finish all my projects in time, no matter how many hours of sleeping I have to satisfied. I think this is actually a good thing about me. It helps my Dreamer side. Haha.

I plan to go in into 3D animation because I want to either be participating into making those great 3D animation movies or to be working for my favorite game company. 2D animation is cool, but I don't feel myself is that close to it. I took experimental animation last year. I learned and experienced several types of animation. I had made several little animation. They were not that perfect, but they were my first time experience of making animation.



This is a little ten second animation I made for a British animation festival. I used Flash to make it.

Actually, I don't have any idea of what we will do in this class. I will probably expect to know more and deep about animation making process. I want to be a good animator!
