ANIMATION MODULE STATEMENT
I found this semester to have been pretty brief and think it passed extremely quick as each and every week was filled with new and exciting briefs and challenges.
Upon receiving my place in this module as an official animation and motion design student I remember initially fearing whether I will be capable of upholding my usual high standard as many things where brand new to me. Using the adobe suite seemed like such an inexplicably impossible hurdle but with each workshop and day spent in the lab I found myself learning, questioning, and understanding all the programs more and more, gaining confidence with each completed project. I found being thrown into each brief very overwhelming, but I learned that my classmates are my team members and that asking questions is not just an option but sometimes a must. Therefore whenever I was confused I’d reach out to a peer who understood the tasks at hand more proficiently than myself and patiently listened to their advice. This way I was able to complete all my briefs and and even though they initially would cause me much stress, the pride in finishing each project and knowing I’m capable of everything this course has so far thrown at me, made me love animation this much more and reaffirmed me in my choice, that this is the path and hopefully career for me.
