The Glorious Burden

Hello again,

Apologies for no blog entry last week, i'll get onto why...

Has been a busy week this week as earlier today there was a deadline for Assignment 12 – KISS, the main part of the assignment was creating a Valentine's Day ecard. I ended up spending a lot more time than I anticipated trying to make my Macromedia Flash animation as I had almost completely forgotten how to use flash. Mainly because I’ve only used it last year when making the Channel 8 Idents and have not touched it since.

Due to these set backs I ended up having a few late nights this week to make sure that I had it completed for today. Plus there was a big chunk of written work I needed to get done. I managed to get virtually all of it completed last night so this morning there was no last minute rush to finish anything.

I would welcome any feedback on my completed ecard.

The big file I bought months ago is proving useful when it comes round to handing in assignments, as during the week before deadline I can print out all the separate parts and start putting my submission together, and keep it organised as well. When the time came to hand the assignment in all I had to do was move it from my file and into the pink folder.

This afternoon I have concentrated on furthering the CiSSy assignment by working on some digital mock up screen designs. I have one more design to choose then I will have all three home pages chosen.

Plans for the rest of the week? To get on with creating the first of my three CiSSy web pages using CSS. I'm hoping this shouldn't be too daunting as I used CSS to create my online digital portfolio.

Thanks for reading,
