Fantastic Voyage Submission Post

Fantastic Voyage Submission Post Fantastic Voyage :Art of by Torran Rodgers on Scribd Reflective Statement At the start of this project i set myself a task that i thought would be challenging for me under the current circumstances at the time. It turns out i found this task near impossible under the circumstances that i found myself in shortly after. However as much as i am disappointed in the results of this project i can see this as a fairly good learning point.  I have learnt better ways of creating shots within Maya, as well as finding how important it is to understand how Arnold works and its time needed. I think in the future i need to be more aware of circumstance and use my time more wisely when i am able to be productive. After many problems with the software i have also realised that saving my work may not always be the only option to keeping it safe and backing it up is important.

I feel like I have done a fair amount of 2D drawn animation's however i found it hard to replicate this on the digital tablet and software. Overall even though i struggled i enjoyed the sessions, even if more time was spent struggling with drawing then animating.

Even if my drawing skills improved slowly i feel that the different challenges presented in the sessions helped open up new ideas on how to get the figure down on the page and after a few session made me a lot looser when it came to the finality of my drawings, and instead could focus on improvement and readability of drawings over the appearance of the drawing itself
