final submission

I was having trouble uploading my animatic versions to blogger as the files are quite big and it was unable to load them. I then saved the versions along with the final animatic onto a disk which I submitted along with my sketchbook and evaluation.

This will be the last update for the first year of the masters, as I have already handed in my pre production work. I believe the design of the characters reflects the wishes of the female gamers who participated in my survey whilst still letting me be creative within the constraints of the survey results.
I believe I have created female game characters with more substance, Which will reflect the attributes that many female gamers say are missing in the majority of pre made female avatars today.

animation tutorials

During the course of the first year of the masters I have also been reading up on animation techniques and tips from various sources. These sources include animation books, online tutorials and dvd tutorials. I had done several brief animations but unfortunatly my laptop has had several viruses over the past few months and a lot of my saves have been wiped out. These however are some of my earlier attempts which I managed to retrieve. The tutorials I have been looking at will really help me when it comes time to animate my skit in the second year.
