Today we began further planning into our video production project, i decicded to do the story boards as im good at draing and was able to finish this in today's lesson, it was then scanned and uploaded to photoshop. i then moved onto doing my weekly planner so that i have goals to set for the future lessons, as regards to group work its going really well so far, everyone seems to be working well with each other and there havnt been any arguements yet which is a good sign. in the upcomming lessons i will start to look into camera angles and which would be best for our film. we have decided now to do a film about a government agent and a person with warping ability, very simple however the actual footage at the end should look very good and quite complex, i look forwards to continueing this work.

Today we began our new project on video production, we spent the moirning going through the project breif and after the first break we were then assigned into groups, we were then given a task to discuss what sort of video we would like to make and then we had to fill out a planner so that we could begin to prepare for the video. As a group we decided to do a video inspired by the films Jumper and Push, using these effects plus our own experiance we will combine these effects with our own Parkour to make our video enjoyable to make and watch, i look forward to seeing the progress of this and will look forward to continueing this project.

Today i continued to produce my animation project, unfortunately i am a bit behind as i had to start over once i founf that my original idea was far too complicated, however the current project seems to be a success, i struggled with a few minor problems to begin with however i had support from my tutor who was able to show me a much easier way to get the ball to roll down the slide. by the end of today i had managed to nearly finish the animation, all that is left to do is inport a background so that it will be mor einteresting to watch. i also need to finish up a presentation which i will complete over the next few days.

My new project design was allot more simple and so far i have made much better progress, i ran into a fair few problems as im new to this software however after recieving help i was then able to continue with the project, today i manage to set up my wall using flash and after the easter holidays i will then start to animate the ball.
Today i started to draw my story board out into large A4 sheets of papper, i drew each slide individualy so that i would be able to scan them into photoshop at a latter date, as i enjoyed draing i had no problems doing this and was able to continue with this over the next few weeks, after i had done this i then uploaded them into photoshop and edited the photos for flash, as the project moved on i soon found that i had made my drawings to complicated to animate and there four i had to abandon it and do something much more simple otherwise i would risk missing the dealine.
