My first 'real' blog post.

how to get things done.

1. understand what you are trying to do (before starting)
2. break the task into smaller tasks
3. make a list of these things on paper
4. type this list into your computer. redundant? no. because this is a good time to re-order things if your paper list was slightly off. (way less scribbly)
5. take a 15 minute break and do whatever your heart desires.
6. start on the first item
7. do not stop working for two hours. (not even if you have to go to the bathroom. really working. no tweeting 'wow. this list has really increased my productivity' etc.)
8. assess your list. remove the items that you have completed
9. take fifteen minutes.
10. repeat steps 7 through 9 until finished.

Grove Street Party (Toon render)

I was in an introductory flash course. I don't much like flash, but I do like maya, and rendering into .swf's. maya vector is pretty cool, and it was fun to animate stuff to the beat. I want to take on more projects like this.

Check it out!!!

Diving into Python!

Been doing some learning with Rigging Dojo over the past few weeks. Things are going well, thanks to the help of Learn Python The Hard Way (p2pU). Got a lot on my plate right now, but I'm hungry! Python is a great language and I feel like this is the gateway to success (or at least efficiency). If nothing else, I am typing at roughly 65WPM now!

I am restarting my huge age ski project, this is what I got:

Ski-ncomplete!

My final project in school. It was hard, and I need to learn python for motionbuilder before I can actually do this, too much of it is procedural.
