'Trapped' in a LIFE Time

As soon as my MM Fund lesson ended, i headed down to the 2d animation room.

Indeed, i felt glad having to see Ting Yu beginning to animate the girl whom was supposed to blink her eyes. She also asked some of our 'classmates' for opinions on how to improve and make the girl look better. I gave her my honest opinion that the girl's left hand looked abit weird.

Having to correct it myself, i must admit; it was really tedious having to do it realistically with the use of perspective and proportion as well. Luckily, Kevin came to the rescue which made the job so much easier with his comments. There it was, NOW the girl looks perfectly normal. I was pretty amazed that though there were setbacks faced but she ( Ting Yu ) was still able to complete it in a jiffy.*She, herself also agrees*

Anyway, by the time she had completed animating the girl, Yi Chuin came along with some of our images of our 2d art fundamentals work and brought along our sketch books. I took photos of my sketches, Yi Chuin and Ting Yu follow suit. Yi Chuin said that we may add photos of our sketches in the part where some of our scenes which may seemed boring or even cover Aaron's sian face at one of the scene to perk things up.

Just then, the worst news was heard! Actually, it was also our group's fault having to film our 2d artwork but we didn't manage to bring it to it's original place and another group as well. Therefore, we rushed up and brought it back to level 5 and at the same time, after putting the 1m painting, i went to take photos of my sketch book again.

Due to the weight torment, we were hungry and went to Mensa to eat. Guessed what! I ate salmon fish. My FAVOURITE man.. Indeed, the weather was cold and i felt like sleeping. Man.. I really envy my cousin as she got 4 months of holiday. Poor thing (for all of us)..

We then went to the 3d animation room where we wanted to film the part where Ting Yu would tear out the last image of the detailed drawing that she drew during drawing essentials' scene and Yi Chuin would showcase her work on the computer. However, the screen wasn't clear and the lighting was off. So we waited for Aaron as he knows how to adjust the computer. What we could do was to wait for Aaron and we bought an extra tape as well. COOL hur..

But this time when Aaron arrived, we went to search a mac computer instead as it would surely look much better than just any normal computer. We tried searching for an empty room or rather a room that was more quiet and we finally found one. We managed to film the two scenes that i had mentioned earlier. It was indeed tough as the first take was when Ting Yu had to tear off the last page of the detailed drawing and placed the page in front of the computer. I must say that particular shot was to be film correctly and without any mistakes due to the fact that once the page is torn, it couldn't be torn again.

The scary thing was, i was the one who took that particular scene. I was very worried in fact. I also took the scene where Yi Chuin showcased her 3d work and i zoomed into her 'cone' animation. Aaron gave a helping hand due to the fact that when it is all the way zoomed in, it looks pretty weird and furthermore the scene was rather shaky due to my unsteady hands. We also took Yi Chuin flipping the images of Ting Yu running. It looks good.

Good job for both Ting Yu and Yi Chuin.

By the time we completed both the scenes, it was already nine plus. So we headed back to the 2d animation room to get back our belongings.

The worst news arrived. When i tried opening the door, it was lock. I panicked so badly that my heart nearly popped out and wanted to go into my stomach due to the fact that i had morning lesson in the morning and all my things were there.

I felt that my belongings were so pitiful having to be trapped in that dark room.

First thing that came to mind was to find the security guard where he holds the key to our 'freedom'. So we searched for the security guard. Finally, we managed to find him. The funny thing was when the security guard asked us to wait for him outside the 2d animation room, Yi Chuin actually thought that the security guard wanted us to follow him and sit on the mini- van ( white colour thing ) . She was indeed thrilled having able to sit on that white thingy in once in her lifetime. You should have seen her expressions. It's like as though she had met her Mr. Right.
It was hilarious indeed..

Not forgetting that Ting Yu had shown us a song as well.
It was a Japanese song and like what Yi Chuin had mentioned in her blog, when Ting Yu first heard this Japanese song, she can visualised it with our ending.

Good job Ting Yu, it seems like you are really putting your heart and soul into this project.

Anyway, i too, felt that it would be a little off, having to suddenly put a japanese song out of the blue for our credits. But we shall see how things go. Basically, we still left editing, animating the chi bi puppet and many others too.

By the time i headed home, i switched on my computer, Ting Yu , Yi Chuin and i made an online conference. Ting Yu was explaining to us that the sudden Japanese song at the end wouldn't be weird due to the fact of 'me n u= jap + song + anime + chibi = SCP members'

This was the equation that Ting Yu came up with and rebuking or rather telling us a good reason. to think we actually accepted her reason.

LOL.. anyway, i got to sleep now. Tatar..
