Awesome, this blog will be done on time. I'm finally starting to get into a good rhythm of how to get everything done and still have time to breathe. So, this week is all about my flash assignment. I've thought a bit about it, but I don't think I'll know exactly what I'm going to do until I sit down and do it. Generally, that's how I work.
I've decided I am going to probably pick a poem or song lyrics. I was thinking maybe the song lyrics Fire and Rain by James Taylor because it creates interesting imagery. Or even Monster Hotel (MSTRKRFT remix) because of the way the music works out I can see it working perfectly in flash. Kind of like the flash movie example we saw in class with the phone message. Either that, or I will probably do something influenced by Saul Bass. I honestly have always loved that style and never knew anything about it until our last lecture.
To find more ideas I will probably search a few flash sites. I know www.newgrounds.com is a great website full of flash movies. I intend to see if any style pops out to me on there. Of course, I'm not saying I'm going to COPY what other people do, but see if anything kind of leads me off into my own style and idea. The weirdest things give me inspiration, too. So who knows what I could find between now and when I actually sit down to do my assignment.
I think I'll play around with Flash first before I decide on what I want to do most. I still don't even know how to put music in a flash movie. Gotta learn that!
Anyway, that's all I really know about what I'm going to do for my flash assignment. Now, I know it's only 9:20 but I'm going to read a bit of 52 (amazing comic book) and then go to bed. More homeowork to do tomorrow. Happy thanksgiving?
Let the good times roll,
Shelly
