Very frustrating, very complicated day for me here to figure this out. Who knew Audio would be so hard to properly post in...

I attempted to post my audio in one of my clips the right way, but so far, no such luck. So i need to try to post my audio inside a button instead of the movie clip. hopefully i can get newer, better VO's this weekend so that i can post them up as well. see ya monday!

This Screenshot pretty much summons up what i have done today... and then some!

Today was the day i finished and started working the preloader! thank you Fitz! I originally had the word awesome being filled in from the outline only, but i though... nah! it looks dull and not interesting at all. Then I went to the preloader, and redid everything from scratch, and now its just plain sweet! it looks like my drawing and everything. So in a span of 5 school days, my project went from "ill never get it organized and done on time" to "no prob, i can totally handle this!" Im really excited to finally put in the audio in the right way and to finish up this piece of work! i might even put it up on Newgrounds and show it off to the world! LOL!

Today, we didnt get as much time as i thought in here, but oh well. i wanted to construct better looking buttons to put in the new main page. examples shown here.


Also, Mr. fitzer also explained to us that we need to make a flash slideshow to go along with our capstone. honestly saying, im fearing over this. how am i going to cooperate my project about Adobe systems into a flash animation that has some wild and crazy handrawn animations? I hope to figure this out tonight.

today was another clean up day on my resume, and i might add that it looks so much better now!


i also got to work on a new Intro video to really bring out the action in this project. i plan to get some audio tonight for the intro, which will involve searching for the proper song... to google!!!



Plus, i want to recreate the MM page to look more outgoing. this example is a basic idea of what i want to do. Im also going to make full body recreations of all my characters tonight and use those as buttons to the correct enviroments.

Today, we spent a boatload of time to work on anything in the lab. so what better way to work than on working on the resumes?

Today i needed to redo the animations and place them into seperate movie clips so they look organized and not all over the place! i did so and let me say that everything looks so much better!!! also i added "skip video" buttons to all my animations, because i realized that many people dont care about the animations, or the animations might be a little too long, so i made the buttons to skip the introduction and get right to the goods.

also, i plan to make a new introduction, my old one seems kinda bleak and boring. so i plan to make it more actiony and make the main menu so much more detailish and stylish in a way thats also practical! its a tough job, but i got what it takes!

sorry bout not posting earlyer... i was so caught up on work that i didnt see that it was time to go!

anyway, ill post at home.

What i did today during interactive resumes was work more on the skechs that im posting on the resume part. although i didnt get enough time to work on these. i say i got the basic part done. I believe that with a little more work, the resume will look nice!

today during our time, i finally put some pics up on the resume and they look awesome!

I had to work through photoshop to make some custom buttons to represent the works that I have placed in the portfolio. The buttons are just pieces of the picture that if you click on the guitar, you get the guitar picture. if you click the eye, you get this weird O-Face looking at you. and so on and so forth. right now its just those 2 pictures but ill get more posted soon.

other than that, im gonna make a self portrait of myself in flash to build into the bio page.

3/10/09


I continued to create more and more of my resume today to make it more creative rather than bare. I also desided to make a quick bio page about the creator, myself, and i also fixed several links that were all screwed up. my capstone page went to my summery, my summery to the resume, and resume to capstone. it was crazy!


anyway, i got it fixed and updated, thats the important thing!


Thumbs up!

today is a lucky break for me, I finally got my Resume Page over and done! all i needed to go with it today was a centerpiece to go with my infomation. and so, i created another illustration to go with it. i had a sketch done over the weekend but then i never scanned it or even brought the drawing book to school. so i redid it in class today. making my same illustration in flash was so much easier and better looking then drawing it on paper and then redoing it in flash. Amen to that!

I needed to put in some important details today in resume. so Today, i finnaly put some infomation into the Summary part of the project as well as some title boxes on where the Portfolio pieces should be. Its gonna be designed and well made later on when i get done with the pieces on the portfolio. I forgot to put my pieces onto my flash drive last night, but ill take care of it later! What i really need to do now, is to focus on the Preloader and to put the code in.


and yes, this quick doodle i want in my easter egg!

3/5/09 (a well thought out post)

Today during our long rotations, I desided to start to work on interactive resume, but then I saw that Flickr was blocked........ AAAAHHHH!!!!

so instead Im desided to draw out my portfolio piece. I fixed up my first piece which will be quite a doozy when shared with the class. Also, i made a piece of photoshoping work i did at home.

I wanna give my apologies to Mr. Fitzer for not being able to turn in my summary.

I was gonna post it last night on my laptop, but unfortinuly, the laptop could not read the word document properly and it could not type any new infomation last night. Then i tryed the family computer, but we dont own word on the computer so i was screwed last night.

But i have it done now! so here it is!


"You only have one life to do what you want to do. I live to do what I do!"


All my life I always had unique and creative ideas, from making up action heroes in kindergarden to today, I’ve been thinking on how to make things better or coming up with new ideas for everyone else. Although some might have been duds, I always think of new things and never try keeping old ideas most of the time. My high school life has given me another chance to relive my childhood through the magic of acting and theatre. I don’t know what I would do if it weren’t for those special first two years of high school. Then I came across the Interactive Media Design at the South-Western Career Academy and that changed my view of a possible career. That’s why I want to go to college and study more into the field of technology I’m interested in. People spend big money here, and it combines my creative genius with my obsession of modern technological advances. I believe that ITT would give me the benefit of extending my creative genes and further my quest to become the best person that I can be!

2/3/09

Today, Fitzer wanted us to work on our summerys for the resume, so that is what i did. and dont worry, i didnt give away too much infomation about myself. Thats just setting me up for Identity Theft!

It was pretty hard to determine what was to go in the resume and what was gonna go away. I have it done though, but i dont have it on my resume yet, something i will correct and do tomorrow.

aside from that, i didnt record the voices because i was posting my first of my Blog pieces on my blog, (the links on the right) Its on my deviantart at...

www.deviantart.com/superpunk4life

but ill still post a link on the portfolio too.

happy march everyone! cant wait to get out of this winter drought!

anyway, today, i did some more doodles on the resumes and gave Awe. Libre some Depth to his animations. however, i couldnt find any screens of what animation i wanted. I hope to find one tonight when i review some pics on Photobucket. They have more decent pictures than Flickr will. aside from that, i also messed with some sounds and attempted to fix Awe. Gang's voice... it cannot be fixed, so i wanna do it again tonight.
