First, Media Arts.

Our short film project, which has to be animated and 1-2 minutes long, is nearing it's due date. Here I am, with a script clearly made for a full length, 1 hour and 16 minute film. My teacher simply says "just cut out some lines". He doesn't understand though. The story can only be told in an hour and 16 min. time frame. The other thing is that he won't let me start my script over again and he's making us use Adobe Fireworks. Animating with Fireworks and no drawing tablet is like trying to make a beautiful wood statue out of two badly chipped pieces of wood. It's painful and difficult. So, here's my plan. Forget Fireworks. I'm going to do so much over the break. I'm going to animate with Clip Studio Paint. Even if Fireworks is what we were supposed to use, CSP is better and this project wasn't about learning to use Fireworks. Now about the audio, there is no way I'm going to record my voice saying such cheesy things in a class where everyone is listening, waiting to laugh. So, when I start my script anew, there will be no dialogue. That's how the best stories are told after all. That should give me enough time to compose decent music at home with my piano and guitar, and then add drumming beats at school using GarageBand. The story should be easy since I'll just search for a writing prompt and write my story slightly different and elaborate, or I'll just follow with the morals I have in mind as choices. The storyboarding will be done with Celtx, just like my teacher wants, but I'll be doing most of it at home with my tablet. Anything done at school will simply be a decoy. The only sound I'll have to record myself is small sound effects. This should be enough to do during winter break. Most classwork will be a decoy, while the real work will be done at home. When everything is finished, the animation and audio will be put into a flash drive, taken to school, and sewn together with some filters. This film is now guaranteed to be the best among the class since everyone else is doing animations about (ugh) Jake Paul. Not very original... :/

Ok, this, this is what I'm angry about. We spent three days acting out the trial from TKAM and we still aren't finished. Each day we have to do it, I cringe more and more. So, over the weekend, I decided to read the rest so I don't have to pay attention to this torturous act. Today, acting all confident, I find out that we aren't doing it today.
