Wednesday 20th March

Today we had Ted Tuesday, on a Wednesday again, this is becoming a regular occurrence. The Ted video was chosen by Rob as he got the lowest scores in the test last week. Although Ted test is a give away you would have though he would have got it from the Ted website like John usually does but no he went and got it from the BBC website, so in actual fact it was BBC Wednesday, didn't like this at all!
Considering I didn't watch the video, I done well to come Joint second with 80%

For the half day I had (It was a half day for me, like every Wednesday),  I was refining all my characters of which I created yesterday. They are now fully complete and I have added the ship as well. Today I managed to do two main parts of the story at the beginning of the animation. Although John shew me how to do motion tween yesterday, I had forgotten the majority of what he had said (that's what tiredness does to you) but somehow I managed to use it and create two scenes where the main character is in the sea sailing along in search of the lost island and encounters a big storm. The force of the storm take one of is masts down. This took me a fair while to do because when I was trying to do something in flash it would do something totally opposite to what I wanted it to do. In the end I managed to get it to do what I wanted it to do, with some help from Dan, which mean I am well on my way now.

Despite not fully knowing what I was doing in flash I enjoyed the half day and I have partly learnt how to use Adobe Flash but I wouldn't hold my breath on creating something amazing... its never going to happen but I will try my best.
