It’s been a little while since I’ve posted a progress report so I thought I’d share some stuff today! I’ve been chugging along on both the Family Tree for the Oleg Illustrations and the animations for RUS407 online lectures and have made a lot of progress! Included here are a number of animation symbols, sets, costumes and cycles that I’ve completed! The Family Tree is almost complete, I’ll wait until it is finished to upload it;)

Another request I received was to update the website for the French/Italian grad program at UT. They had images representing the posters advertising the programs but the formatting was off and they were all different sizes. To fix this, Andre and I re-uploaded the posters and made them each into separate divs in html which allowed us to specify the correct size. I forgot to take a before screenshot but here is the result after:

I was requested to update the plan II video on http://liberalarts.utexas.edu/plan2/admission/index.php, because for some reason it had black bars on the top and bottom. Working with Andre we ended up using a Flex html plugin which allows us to embed youtube videos with widescreen formatting.
The code ended up looking like this:
<div class=”flex-video widescreen vimeo”><iframe width=”800″ height=”450″ allowfullscreen=”” frameborder=”0″ mozallowfullscreen=”” src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/7vktNhdGlA8″ webkitallowfullscreen=””></iframe></div>

Made some good progress the last few days! Last week I was assigned a “Family Tree” illustration for the Oleg drawings. On Friday I found some reference material and made a mock-up of my planned illustration, and today I started drawing it, managing to get a large portion of the tree finalized! I also animated a calendar with pages being torn off, an animated symbol that will be used in a large portion of the RUS407 Animations! I included a gif of the swimming fish I completed awhile back as well. There is still a lot to do with those RUS407 Animations but I’m eager to keep making progress on them and the family tree!

Haven’t really been able to post this week but I’ve done some good work! I’ve added more symbols to the collection for the RUS407 animations, like a waitress outfit and a canoe. I also started working on a large family tree for Polina’s family for the Oleg Illustrations! So far I’ve just made an ornamental nameplate for the family members’ names and sepia filter photos of each family member, I’ve included a few here.
