Thanksgiving Update!

Hello everyone! It is just me, Colby, bringing you an update on the things I have been observing in Sarah's life as of late. Thats what I do. Its a small job, but I try my best to be as thorough as I can!

 Sarah has been working very hard these past two weeks to finish all her assignments before reading week so she can spend her time back at home without having to worry about her homework. Her reading week starts this weekend and she is very excited to fly out and see her boyfriend back home for the week. Sarah has been feeling quite homesick and is missing the prairies she grew up on and her family and probably I would assume mostly her cat Marshmallow.

Sarah had a lovely Thanksgiving this weekend playing Pokemon X, having a res supper with her roommate, doing homework, and having lunch with her eldest brother and great aunt and uncle. 

She admits she got a little lazy this weekend and didn't finish as much as she intended too and is hoping it doesn't come back to fight her. Sarah still much complete 1 painting, 8 character poses, a possible inbetweening assignment and possibly 3 storyboard layouts for the week after reading week. She is hoping to get the inbetweening and half of the poses done before she leaves and finish the rest over the reading week. Lets hope she gets the time and doesn't stress herself out!

Lets keep cheering her on! Goodluck to Sarah and lets hope she has a nice relaxing reading week!

Hands and Feet Portfolio

Last update for this long weekend! Here is Sarahs portfolio for Life drawing class with her hands and feet! Sarah stated that she is quite impressed with herself and is really happy with the turn out of the drawings. She is going to take her knowledge of simple rendering that she gained from this and apply it to her bones for her bone portfolio! She is hoping for an A on this project to save her from the B she currently has in the class. Heres hoping! Sarah admits that she went a little over board on the title page but she was having a lot of fun with it so she couldn't resist!

Thanks for keeping updated with us! Amelia signing off for the night!

Layout First Assignment

Here I am again! This is Sarah's first official work for her layout class. She took the opportunity to show off her digital skills and was quite happy with the turnout. Secretly this room is part of a comic she is hoping to make sometime in the coming years but it is still far in development. I can't wait to see more of this interesting idea! Sarah will be using this layout for the next couple assignments she does so hopefully it helps with her story as well!

Amilia out!

Paintings

Well I do say, I am quite sorry for falling behind on my updates! Sarah has been very busy these past couple weeks and its been tough keeping up with her! But at last I have a second to update you on her school work!

Here we have Sarah's first few assignments for painting class. The first three were in class practices practicing the gradient methods. Sarah's first out of class painting was rushed and she was not very happy with the result but she put all her effort in her second painting and did a marvelous job of it. She is starting to get the hang of painting with gouache but still struggles with blending. She hopes to perfect this technique by the end of the semester!

Title Block

Amelia here once again! This should be my last post for today I promise! Here is Sarah's title block that she
designed for her digital tools class to be shown before all her animations! She was originally going to animate that nice young cat walking in and sitting down but she was getting frustrated with it and quit but she promises she's have something like that ready for her fourth year film! What an inspiration! She was feeling kinda down though looking at how amazing some of her friends title blocks were coming out but she didn't feel the need to put that much time into hers. Oh well. Lets hope she keeps going hard!

Amelia signing off, this time for good!

Character Turn Around

Amelia here once again! Let us all welcome Sarah's first character for her character design class! What a
scary old woman! I would never want her looking after me! Sarah's imagination sure can create some strange things... but now the less! Great work! During the observation of this project I was amazed to see how little stress she had turning this character around compared to her portfolio turnaround! Can't wait to see who she designs next!

Flipbook Assignment

Hello again everyone! Here is a quick update on Sarah's first project for her digital tools class! The project

was focused on looping and cleaning up an animation in Flipbook, not so much on the animation itself. We will bring you more updates soon!

For now this is Amelia, signing off!
