Final Project

-> Here ya go! <-


You may notice that the final version of this project is kinda different from the WIP one. Just kinda. Just a little bit. All that is missing is the music, and the animation. No big deal. :(

Actually, it's kind of sad. I would have loved to turn in an animation for the final project. But as I found out, an animation would probably take a quarter, not two weeks. So I had to take a different approach. Something that wouldn't take as long. I thought of doing flip book animation. But since I am absolutely no good at hand drawing, that probably would take as long as the Flash animation. So let's try something else. I don't even know what to call this. It's not exactly comic book. More like storyboarding I guess.

Now to the content. I got the idea when I was walking to Math class. Math's been hard on me this quarter. After the first midterm, I thought that maybe I should drop the class. Maybe even change major, because you need a lot of math in CSE. Lots of depressing thoughts pass my mind at the time. But I didn't drop the class. I bounced back, and got 96 in my second midterm. Now there's a chance that I might not fail the class after all. So I thought that was a cool story, fitting for the last project of the year.

The project took me nearly four hours. Never knew it took that long to draw stick figures. In the end I think it turned out okay. I can't tell if it is understandable to other people. Perhaps if I double the amount of pictures, it may be clearer. Still, I'd have like for it to be animated, though. Perhaps I will make that my summer project.

The one hard thing that I encounter while doing this is actually how to convey more emotions. While I was drawing this, I can feel it. But when I look at it afterward, I guess it seems a little bland. Or maybe that is just because I look at it too much. I don't know. We'll see how it goes it class.
