30.01.10 - The Drop In, Northampton.


My friend has recently taken over the running of the young persons Drop In Centre for the YMCA in Northampton and she asked me if I could knock up a poster for her. I was more than happy to do this and am even working on some more.
At the end of the day the image itself, and the Layers that make it up can all go into my Assets folder, and plus its for charity!
I am going to upload some more of the images that I create at home onto my Blog.

30.01.10

This weekend I have been finishing the Soundbooth project, in fact I have started from scratch with a different song. I think it is going to sound OK when I have finished as I have now got to grips with the Software. For me Soundbooth was harder to pick up than Cubase, but now that I am more comfortable using it I am enjoying the project a lot more.

Over the past couple of days I have been working on the HandCANNON, its part of a joint effort creation that me and Robb are doing together.
Basically I will create FIVE 2D images -

1. The profile, which you can see on the left.
2. A front image of the gun, looking down the barrel.
3. An image from directly beneath.
4. An image from directly behind.
5. And an image seen from above.

Once I have finished I will then give them to Robb who will turn them all into one 3D image.
When he has done this the HandCANNON can then be put into a computer game.

Today me and Robb went around town and as far as the beach to record some sounds to import into Soundbooth. We will add these to the loops that we are creating out of the songs we have chosen and end up with an original composition. Hopefully.

Due to being ill on Thursday due to not being able to see my Doc I am going to get all my research finished today and uploaded. I would have finished it earlier except I no longer have the Internet at home so am using Robby's.

This afternoon we have started the research part of the Recording Unit, this includes building a virtual studio with a budjet of £10,000 made up of about a dozen bits of hardware and software. We also have to complete a 750 word document.

This morning in Key Skills we learnt about Capital Letters, were and when they should be used and we did a little test as well. This morning in Music we have been getting to grips with Adobe Soundbooth. This software is not as good as Cubase.

I have been continuing with the evaluation of my Cubase project today, I have almost finished. I have up-loaded my finished track for Adrian to mark and am quite happy with how it turned out. I shall have the written part of the project finished by tomorrow.
