NEW BLOG! the Basics of the next few months.

OK first post. i feel like Dr. Watson in the new Sherlock =D anyhoo this blog is for uni stuff really so here goes.

it seems we are doing two units at once. one theory one practical. not entirely sure how digital fits in. i asume thats a later practical unit that will have John teaching instead of Andy.

 Practical with Andy. (Don't be late, he pretends that he can lock you out of the lecture, i know he can't actually lock the door but pretending is fun, and besides i have a crystal.) Andy's unit is called Animation principles. don't entirely know what it involves but there are two segments. Life drawing (Due mon 9th January) and the Physical animation (I assume including prep work and all that shizzle, Due Fri 13th January). ALSO Acting classes in late october. This is a thirty credit unit (But i can't really see the point of having credited units you have to pass all of them)

Theory with Liz. unit begins 6th of october (1.30pm- G14) and is due in on the last thursday before christmas. its called framing animation which actually refers to the general social and historical context of animation rather than a physical frame (Kavanagh XD) there will be 6 lectures in this unit and seminars too. the resulting essay will be around +2000 words. (Nice and simple)

General Bloggieness 
i has become clear to me that i might want a graphics tablet. christmas might be too late.... still i got my nice light-box so i'm not too bad off.
personally prefer Liz's way of talking. i'm afraid to interrupt Andy's train of thought in case he pretends to lock me outside.

 Looks like a fun few years ahead, marred only slightly by the seemingly mountain of work we have to do and things we need to learn.
