WEEK 8 - Flash

Flash time! I didn't want to post the finished version of my Flash work until everyone in class had time to see it...

Status report...

Been really busy. Called over for extra work in Temple Terrace. Apparently I lost a half point for not uploading my work. That's okay. I fully intend on regaining it (and more) with the next class on Tuesday.



Just a little preview of what I was working on in class. I really should update this more but I have a hard time getting it done. Classwork isn't the problem, but the blog is since I'm frequently away from the computer and unable to work on it.

Artwork Updates

I forgot to post stuff here. Not anymore! Here's the artwork I've been doing since class started. All of these images use my own personal artwork or are something completely original that I made, to clarify.

WEEK 5 - Constraints and Tests

It's getting harder to update this regularly. I come home from work exhausted most of the time, then go to class and do my best. I'm not complaining! It's just a little difficult to find the time I need to balance everything... But if everything in life were easy, then nothing would be worth the effort.

Most engaged moment: Working with ID and Photoshop to create a magazine cover, I love finding uses for artwork I've designed in the past.

Most disconnected moment: Using InDesign to make a magazine cover... I feel it's redundant to use ID for work that Photoshop does much more efficiently.

Most affirmed moment: Working in Flash! I figured I'd hate the program. The last time I used it, I wanted to bang my head on a steel pipe.

Somewhat of an update: Some of you might know that I'm working on a System Shock total conversion mod project for an as-yet unannounced game engine. Small sample of the work in progress, recreating items from the game in 3DS Max 8:
