One page down...

So it has been a week and I am down one page! This meaning I have been through the torturous learning curve to assimilate the worlds of action scripting and movie clip symbols. It was an exciting adventure and one that I will cherish. I have been through so much I feel like a master at it but I know I have so much more to deal with. I may be a little ambitious with my 1st website but like they say "Go big or Go home". Which is interesting because I have been working on my Homepage. It seemed like a logical place for me to start as I refined my theme for the site
while working on it.

I must say that Flash is an AWESOME program! Thank you Adobe! But I really can't wait to get into Dreamweaver and add CSS styles to all of my pages. This is so exciting! Although I am working alone I am not having a problem staying motivated. I am a little weary that the mandatory events of the week will slow down my progress but I can't live in my studio all day lol (... sadness). I also got some really good inspirations for more artwork. And I do mean really good!!! I feel that once I finish my site and go through some more work I will return to my film in Maya and do some effects and rendering!

I really love being able to do what I want for once. The thing about school is that everything becomes an assignment at times and you find a lot of the would-be fun becoming stress. Don't get me wrong, I loved being an animation student and I enjoyed 90% of the assignments but they were restrictive and structured at times to a point where I could not fully explore my interest. And it should be that way. It is the basic principles that have enabled me to grow the way I have. And quite frankly I am impressed with how much have actually learned in school and its current application to my projects now. Plus after having so many bottled up ambitions throughout my educational career, it is only logical that I come out exploding!

Life is good! And being an artist is awesome!
