AUTODESK

The beginning of today was pretty slow, I guess because it was a monday. Didn't really know exactly what I should start on since most of the people who had been giving me work hadn't arrived yet. I worked on finishing up a map that I had left over from Wednesday, though I wasn't sure if it had already been finshed by someone else.

Eventually Beth arrived and gave me storyboard work to start on. This was better than what I had been doing the week before. I wasn't quite sure the instructions exactly at first though. I don't know if this is because I don't understand what I'm told very well or if Beth doesn't explain what she wants. I try to ask questions, but sometimes I get a little hesitant because I'm not sure if I'm asking a dumb question.



I was working putting a flat map on a globe to make it look three dimentional. I wasn't sure how to go about this at first and so I was forced to learn a bunch of things in photoshop and illustrator really fast to make it happen. I must learn on my own quickly because everyone else is busy doing their own thing too.



I got some good feedback from Beth and as the day went a long, I was able to work faster and get more frames done. It will be interesting to see what ends up getting used at the end. Jessica and I were talking about how it is crazy how much time and effort is put in to the boards and presentation alone, without even knowing if the ideas will be used. Then eventually everything has to be totally recreated in the final production and post production stages.
