I believe the entire video is on Hulu (42 min.). If you ever rent the DVD, do yourself a favor and DO NOT miss the videos sent in by viewers when this was first released.

NO CLASS ON THURSDAY

Remember, i am in Orlando on Thursday, so you have a free day to begin your midterms. I will see you all on Tuesday! Enjoy the weekend! Patrick

Midterm Project

Pat, I believe you asked us to post our ideas for our midterm projects. You have given me several appealing choices and I may need some help deciding, but these are the nervous contestants: 1) A project learning and using Keynote 2) A project involving Sketchup as it relates to the storytelling project for Arturo's class 3) A project using stitched together panoramas and/or Quicktime VR panoramas P.S. Don't feel bad about not grading the panoramas- we will forgive you someday :o)

Topics for Midterm

1.) A Homepage/Webpage to include basics a.) Pictures, with text and links b.) embedded video c.) VRML [not required] d.) Menus e.) Navigation System f.) Sound of some sort The webpage can be from a template, or you can use Dreamweaver or Bluefish or code it by hand! I will do a Dreamweaver tutorial if there is interest. 2.) Software Survey DO a survey of a piece of software that you might use as a tool for another class in MADAS or towards your degree. It can be modelling (WINGS3d,Blender,3DSMAX) Graphic (GIMP,PHOTOSHOP) VRML (Freewrl), 3D (Sketchup,Open Scene Graph) Video (Premiere,After Effects, Resolume) or anything else you would like to explore in a project. 3.) A video/music piece. Please discuss what you woud like to do with me so we can create a criteria of what you want to present together 4.) Powerpoint with Media on a chapter in the Book 5.) Avatar modelling or Second Life (script, model or gesture or fashion design) Remember creations in second life can be sold for real m...

Mid-term Idea

Originally, I was going to develop a website containing my portfolio, resume, sample work and so on for the mid-term project. I plan to create a greeting video on the homepage, I want to use freesound and audacity to make my own background music. I will use i-movie to put my photograph works together as a video, then add some text as explanation. Etc. But now I feel it is difficult to use dreamweaver to develop a website because I only have a little basic knowledge about it. So, if I can't figure out how to use it soon. I will use creating a second life object as a backup plan. I might create a kindergarten which contains many fun stuff in it for children.
