Progress

So, last week my hard drive did some weird things.  I needed footage from a Flicker member and so I gave her my hard drive, and she had a windows.  I've used Western Digital previously and just recently gotten a Lacie drive, and didn't realize that it would be an issue if plugged into a Windows machine. Especially since I partitioned the drive :c So it told me it was uneditable, so progress was stalled for a couple days.

Now, I've got great volition to animate. Andre gave me the goal of having everything animated by the end of Spring Break, and I will make it happen. (so help me God)

Progress So Far

So far, progress feels slow.  I guess that progress with most animation feels slow... but I'm worried! It is my goal to work for at least an hour every day so that the work load doesn't feel unmanageable, and it's been semi-working.  I have tricked out my setup, to facilitate my animation:

-I bought Adobe last semester so I could work on it from home. This was the best choice I've made in a while.

-I bought a wireless mouse. It makes my life glorious.

-I recently borrowed my friend's HD computer monitor, so I can now really see what I'm doing in After Effects, which is great.

-I bought computer speakers. It hasn't made my animation itself easier, but it means I can listen to music from my computer much more loudly, so it makes me happier when animating. So I think that's still important :]


So now, I just have to get into a routine. Challenge accepted.
