Today I basically just continue working on my drawings for my icons. I think I got 6 so far. I made each icon all very different but they all go with my theme of the Underwater Carnival look (well I hope).
And listen to music while I was drawing. It keeps me going =]
Yeah that's it..

Day 22?
Today I just remembered that I need cotton candy. It plays a very important role in my portfolio menu.
So I started a new document and imported a cotton candy pic that I found earlier on in the year. After I put it on the stage, I locked the layer and created a new layer and started tracing the outline bag of the cotton candies.
Well can't wait til this Friday =]

Yay Friday! =]
Today I continued looking for sounds for my Interactive Resume and I have now about 30 sound effects files. Pretty sweet deal yo!
And then I tried to look for some Adobe Flash CS3 tutorials but I couldn't really find one for what I want. It's really hard to find at the moment.
Have a great weekend everyone! =]

Day 21-ish
Today there was a college visit from SAA. Yay! lol. I plan to apply there so I stayed a little behind to talk to the recruiter.
Then I continued looking for more sounds for my IRES. I found some pretty cool ones but I don't know if it will exactly go with it so I just saved it just in case.
After that I continued working on the popcorn animation. It didn't look right because it didn't look smooth. I also added in some more popcorn drawings using the black brush tool with the smallest size because it looked weird in the popcorn bag. I hid the bag layer so I could add the multiple popcorns.
Then I looked up some coding since I forgot how to do the ones I learned from last year haha.

Sounds
Today Mr. Fitzer asked the Inseparable Sams aka Sam Squared (Sam and I) to go back to the Mac and listen/obtain some sounds. There were some funny ones that made us laugh and some good ones for our IRES. Then after we finished looking back there, I looked on Adobe Soundbooth for some more sounds. That's where I found the bubble sounds.
I think I got about 3 for the carnival sounds. Mhm and 2 for bubble sound.
Yup yup. And I'm tired -_-

The Brain! O0ohh...!
The brain is a social brain.
We begin to be shaped as our immensely receptive brains/minds interact with our very early environment and within relationships. Vygotsky is partially responsible for noting the connection between social interaction and knowledge. Throughout our lives, our brains/minds change in response to their engagement with others -- so much so that individuals must always be seen to be integral parts of larger social systems.
The search for meaning occurs through patterning.
Patterning includes innate and acquired schematic maps and categories. The brain/mind needs and automatically registers the familiar while searching for and responding to novel stimuli. Therefore, the brain/mind is both scientist and artist, discerning and understanding patterns as they occur and giving expression to unique and creative patterns of its own.

Today I had to re-size all of the menu because it was too big. I just realized it too haha. But that I had to remove some keyframes and added a keyframe at the end to get all of it the same size.
Then I re-did my popcorn animation (finallly got it! So proud of myself haha..) I just took a section of the popcorn I wanted to be animated and put it into a movie clip and animate that. Then I added 2 more popcorn kernels by using the brush tool to the smallest size and filled it in with a pale yellow color. Then I did the same animation for the all the kernel/popcorn left.
Oh and I added the motion tween for all the frames that's being animated.

Day 19
It's snowing! =] Darn... =[ lol.
On this somewhat snowy day, I decided to continue working on animating my portfolio menu. I decided to first work on the popcorn coming down from the popcorn maker animations. I changed certain popcorn(s) into movie clips. I then tried to test it out but it didn't seem to work so I tried mutiple times but got the same outcome. So I tried re-do-ing it but it still didn't seem to work.
So I took a while trying to figure out what I did wrong.

Day 18
Today has been a very...quiet day. Probably cuz it's monday.
Anyways, I started to do more animations in my portfolio menu by putting the blinking eyes into a movie clip. I also did the same for the tentacles/arms of the octopus. It's much easier.
Then I decided to make the drink labels in separate buttons so when you click on it, it squirts out the drink for you. I just need to put the code in and draw the squirt-like stuff onto it later.
That's it for now since I didn't have much time.
