Ball Animation

In this assignment I was introduced to the Flash software. I created a short animation of a ball bouncing. You can see this animation by clicking on the above image. I created a guide line and then created a new layer. I named this the ball layer. I inserted a key frame there, and a regular frame in layer 1. I then added a motion tween and moved the ball along the guide starting a new frame for each change in motion.

Logo Assignment Brainstorm

I have professionally done photography on the side for a few years now, however I do not have a professional logo, card, letterhead etc. My plan is to utilize next weeks class time to learn how to design a logo that not only will be learning experience for me, but that I may be able to use professionally. My company name is "In His Eyes Photography." I have many ideas and ambitions for this assignment.

Carmen's Class

Today was the first day in Carmen's computer class. Our first assignment is to create a blog. Seems easy enough until you realize you have absolutely nothing interesting to write about. Not to mention its posted for the entire world to read. Well I hope that in the future I will be able to entertain and stimulate my readers. Just to clarify I am not a self proclaimed "cool guy.'' I couldn't think of a name so Carmen told me to put "cool guy." However, that was taken, so Carmen's cool guy it is!
