Week 10 / Tuesday

Well I have to say that the computers at the college really need up dating! The keyboard on my machine today had a mind of it's own and had to have the Y key practically pushed through the table to respond! The shift key was obviously suffering from depression as one minute it would be fine the next minute nothing, and other quirky things were going on as to the control key being a sulky teenager!

So armed with this it was interesting to say the least in trying to figure out how to get key commands to work.

I carried on with the animation assignment today and concentrated on the intro, created the title of GERTY in patterned text that appeared one letter at a time all still very simple. In terms of showing I can use the drawing tool, following a tutorial I created a leaf! I am planning to have Gerty do something on or with this leaf to add to the animation as I have yet to get it to 10 secs.

We also had a look at what others had done with their projects and I have to say I feel mine looks rather pathetic compared to others, far to simple so a tad worried as to the marks I will achieve!
