i was still working to make an awesome crowd to go along with my awesome libre. i finished the still frame animation in tune to start working on expressions to AL. its close to high time that he soars into the next frame but until then, hes poised and almost ready to take off!

10/21/08 (flash fans)

we took a quiz today in class and then i started working on the background of awesome libres enviroment. it will involve many flashes and many adoring fans cheering for him. what i also want to do is find some mariachi music to play in the background while he salutes to the fans. it has to be a dramatic kind too. i have some marachas to play in the title animation i can record at home. im so ready to work on that tomorrow!

the little guys on the right are my fans and the little ball is my flash. AWESOME!!!

today during our interactive resume time, i once again continued to work on my awesome libre and started designing awesome gangsta. i actually figured out that awesome libre works like an acutal human. one arm or one leg must have its own layer to move properly. i acually got him all the way to the top rope with no problems and now i want to make him jump off there. i have a little time left here so ill see what i can do. i enjoyed making the excited awesome gangsta. i have to make him look as crazy as possible. ok, back to work!

10/15/08 (inked)

today i worked more on awesome libre, as well as some photoshoping for him. what i did is make a tattoo thats says "AWESOME" is gonna wrap around his abs and out the sides. i also tempted to start animating him to go to the top rope, but as this was happening, one of his arms keeps disappearing on me. ill fix it up for tomorrow.

10/14/08

today, i desided to work on some body parts for awesome libre. it was interesting how many combos of colors and designs could work on a mexican luchador. i finally desided to go with lime green, yellow and black to capture a unique combo. i then made arms and legs and anything else that will move with my character as he climbs the turnbuckle for the animation. i leave you with a screenshot of what i did.

10/13/2008 (done with the MM!)

today, I took the liberty to fix up the energy bars and gave them some quick BG movements. It looks pretty cool if you ask me. also added animations around the Character's faces on whenever you click them and when you rollover them on your mouse. i still wanna work on the VO in the beginning but thats the last of my worries at this point. i even started working on Awesome Libre's Enviroment with is a luchadors wrestling event. its pretty tough to do in photoshop, let alone in flash, but im ready to take that challange. tomorrow.

10/10/08 (surged up)

Now done with the heads of my characters, I recorded my voice last night and put it on my IR at the beginning. it sounds pretty cool but needs work. i also started working on my stop animation on my main menu. its a sort of energy surge going through in the BG but i only finished one up. Ill keep working on it monday.

10/09/08 (characters make me number 1)

Today i finished the base of my characters and colored them in. it was somewhat time consuming unfortiatly, but it was satisfying. i also try to add my first piece of audio tonight on my home computer. not an official piece but a test peace. Screenshot coming soon.

10/08/08 (characters welcome)

Today in 3rd period class, we worked on our Interactive resumes and i finished the illustrastions leading up to the Main Menu. All I need to do there is audio and audio editing and it will be epic. i also started working on the character buttons for the MM and finished one as of 2:53pm. its a rough copy of the character AWESOME REBEL (the dude with the cowboy hat and bandana). ill post screenshots later with all of the characters in order.

10/07/2008 (1st blog day)

Today in the limited amount of time we had today to work on our Senior Projects (Interactive Resume), i finished my beginning illustrations leading up to my main menu screen.

I desided to rename my resume from AWESOME MEN to AWESOME 4. i think the name sounds more appropriate for my IR.

here is a screenshot of the logo im "borrowing"

ill come up with a better design later.
