Screenings are Coming! Screenings are Coming!

Welcome back,

I was almost ready to declare "that's a wrap" on "Thrill of the Hunt", but I still have about an hour's worth of little tweaks to take care of after some solid feedback in class today.  It's all good--I got time!

What a harrowing and rewarding experience this has been!  And there could scarcely have been a more wonderful group of people to work with than my Animation Production class--dedicated students with finished, good-looking projects; an experienced and sincere T.A.; and a teacher whose dedication to the craft of animation and kindness as a human being in general have been continuously inspiring.  Thank you, Caitlin, Brenna, Cam, Brooke, Evelyn, Steve, and Atia!

Here's my chart, yellow being aforementioned little tweaks:


All glory and praise to God for a fantastic second year at the RIT School of Film and Animation.

I'll never look at a bird again--or a worm, for that matter--without some serious appreciation!

Love you all,

Emily

Home Stretch

Hey,

It's like that point when running a marathon when you're out of water, out of checkpoints; you've burned off the mountain of pasta you ate the night before; you've recited all your encouraging chants until they've become meaningless.  You could care less about splashing through the mud in your $400 shoes.  You've forgotten about all the other runners--now it's just you and the finish line.

This is what stands between me and Screenings signups next Friday:



And here's a sample of where I've been:



Watch me break some tape--and please, press on toward the goal, and win your own race! :)

Go *huff* get 'em *huff*,

Emily
