General Update

I should edit my blog to add that I am no longer going up to Scotland over the Easter break and am no longer working due to the death of a close family member. It has been a traumatic week and my project work has definitely suffered and will continue to be affected over the coming fortnight. However, I'm carrying on when I can and if things get too much I may ask for an extension. I have an exam close after the hand in date for this and the animation module though so an extension might be useless.
I am going back to Newcastle and into uni this week to photograph my work and see how it runs on Velocity. I also hope to complete my paintings on acetate before coming back to be with my family.
On a lighter note I am beginning to feel like I have researched well enough to go on and create my own hand-drawn cartoons from imagination. The project has definitely opened my eyes to this form of animation and given me the confidence to create my own. I will probably practice my own animated drawing over the summer break. I think that my final year program of work will definitely have benefited from this project.
