Today was the day we had a multiple challenge morning as TED Tuesday was moved to become TED Wednesday and also we had a small basic challenge. So watching the Ted video on Monday did pay off in the end for me as I came second overall, which isn't to shabby at all.
The small basic challenge today was to with input and output files. I followed the instructions but at first I was slightly confused but then it became clear what I had to do after John pointed out to everyone that we had to create some folders and a my.txt document and then the small basic challenge would work correctly. I then fully understood what was going on. once everyone tried doing that challenge we all carried on with animation.
Today in animation all of the level threes moved on to assignment 3. Assignment three is where it all gets down to business. First of all we had to come up with a story that would be suitable to a young audience. this too me a while as I was stuck between taking an old childhood story and putting a bit of a modern twist to it or completely making up a new story. I finally decided I would make up a new story and put a bit of "The Moral of to the story" in it. my moral of the story is to make sure you don't get involved with the wrong people.
I had to do some written tasks before I could go into flash and start creating all the characters and the scene. the tasks were basically for writing the plot, target audience, who are the characters and the purpose of the animation.
Today was a good day as I was able to let my imagination wonder and then stop wondering and then wonder again. It was filled with many tasks in such as short period as it was only a half day for me but overall a pleasing day.
