*cracks open champagne* A toast to a very productive day of work! i actually managed a fair little bit of my animation, Iv got the first 3 Seconds pretty much perfected (theres not much there, just a background with leaves flying around - but thats still an achievement!) and iv planned out the rest and how im going to do it. Unfortunately the Tornado is posing a very big problem to me. Lacking teh skillz to animate it using scripts leaves me only one choice as far as i can see... *dramatic build up music* Doing it frame by frame *dramatic music climax*. Its only gonna be visible for a couple of seconds so it doesnt sound too hard, except at 20 fps, and with a tornado made of 100+ swirls, thats a hell of a lot of work per frame, im gonna need to start putting the late hours in for sure. Other than that i just seem to be wanting to make the rest of the animation harder for myself. I had a thought that instead of the alphabet city being made of concrete alphabet blocks, the buildings could be made of words, the letters acting like bricks.
Why do i torture myself so? Ach well, gonna plan out my work schedule for the next few weeks (hoping to get as much done before Christmas holidays start on the 11th) and then im going to get some well earned sleep before awesome audio lecture/tutorials tomorrow with Yann
(I would upload the first 3 secs of my animation but for some reason blogger isnt liking that idea right now)
heres some help for putting a flash animation into blogger http://adding-flash.blogspot.com/ where it says use the amara site instead use http://www.fhqhosting.com/ its free but rest of steps are same, requirs a bit of code changing
