Last Day

Friday, July 30 2010

Last day of work for the summer! We wrapped up the workshop today. This workshop is definately different because the majority of the people are men and what is interesting to them is the part 4 fire and sound. Some things never change.

One Last Time

Thursday, July 29 2010

Since the workshop is only two days we plan on doing just the space tutorial, 4-part, and the princess/knight exercise with them along with the introduction and storyboarding talks that professor rodger does. If we have extra time we'll do the head billboards and functions tutorial. It's nice this time because the teaching of the 4 part is broken up between the four of us so I'm just teaching the first part.

Group Theory
