[Out of School Work] Run Cycle

Worked on creating a frame by frame run cycle a week or two ago but never got around to posting it.

It was definitely a pain to make, but I think it turned out alright, although it bumps up a bit and the tail wasn't consistent - the fur around the neck, stomach and head was also very hard to animate for me, I don't have much experience animating such details.

Total frames: 15
Time spent + touch ups: 2 hours

[e9] [Final] Website Wrap-Up

Originally, this was supposed to be the finished version of an old HTML website that I coded to show off our projects as seen here. But, sadly, that file had been deleted before I could upload it to the server. Instead, I am simply making this post you see now. I'll be using screenshots from the old website to show what it had looked like.

The home page

The 'Project Page'

And finally, the newest addition - Graphic Design.

This was my logo/favicon (of course, it's a bigger size here, just so that it is easier to see.) I didn't actually upload this to my blog yet, as I just... Don't know if it looks all that great. It took a large amount of time and concentration to align everything correctly, as I had greatly messed up the design. I didn't have much of a design plan to go off of, at first, but it slowly developed in my head as I worked. 

Over all, I really like the design that I used, even if it is incredibly overcomplicated.

[PERSONALITY QUIZ] [REDO]

I redid the personality quizzes due to a few drastic changes in personality among other things, so I'm putting down some information here about it so that if a teacher checks, they don't assume that I just changed it because I could.

Meyer-Briggs - INTP. I have more intuition on this because some of the options didn't exactly fit what I had in mind, although were somewhat close. I try to balance intuition with thinking - After all, you think almost every second that you're conscious. In the moment, I'll try to feel what fits best with projects among other things, but I think more in depth about it.


Lion/Otter/Retriever/Beaver Quiz

1) Lion. Leader type, good at making decisions and very goal-oriented.  Enjoys challenges, difficult assignments, and opportunity for improvement. However, think of the goal, they can step on people  to reach it. They can become aggressive and competitive in nature, and need to learn to let others contribute without snapping at them for it.

Strength: Goal-oriented, strong, direct.
Weakness: Argumentative, a bit too dictatorial
Limitation: Doesn't understand that directness can hurt others, hard time expressing grace.

2) Beaver. "Beaver- Organized. Beavers think that there is a right way to do everything and they want to do it exact that way. Beaver personalities are very creative. They desire to solve everything. Desire to take their time and do it right. Beavers do not like sudden changes. They need reassurance.

         Strength: High standards, order, respect
         Weakness: Unrealistic expectations of self & others, too perfect.
         Limitation: Seeing the optimistic side of things, expressing flexibility."

[GD] Colorwheel

My first post from the third rotation of E-9/E-Communication for freshmen. We were to make a color wheel following a tutorial, but not closely and to make our own shape/design.

I'm actually posting this late due to me continuing to fiddle around with the color wheel I had created, as it wasn't aligned properly.

[GD] Famous Icon Tutorial

This past week, we were assigned to create a famous icon via tutorial that we find on YouTube. I choose the Google Play icon. I followed the steps exactly as they had been done, resulting in the ending image. I would have done more, but, being the perfectionist I am, I ended up scrapping all the other ones in favor for the Google Play icon. The finished icon and it's gradients are shown below.
