@abigpony makeup on Monday..
Monday, 15-Aug-11 17:40:02 UTC from StatusNet Android -
@abigpony yeah

@abigpony I don't know my classes

@abigpony You guys have animation classes in high school? or is that college?
Monday, 15-Aug-11 17:47:15 UTC from web -
@abigpony yes

@abigpony I am totally jealous. They have an animation course at my university, but it has a bunch of really stupid prerequisites like Photoshop, Illustrator, a film-making course, I think film history (wtf)... so it's pretty much impossible to get into

@abigpony Yawn. I took that last year.

@abigpony considering that I attempted to figure out Flash on my own and got absolutely nowhere with it, even a crappy class would help.

@abigpony like I *just* said, I did that and could not understand wtf I was doing. I clicked around for a week and couldn't figure out how to make anything happen.

@abigpony it might be easy for some, but I think I'm just really stupid when it comes to anything graphical. I can't get my head past 3D game engines either, and I have been told that those are really easy to work with too.

@abigpony "Went into"?
Monday, 15-Aug-11 18:06:39 UTC from web -
@abigpony Oh. Programming. I have been doing that stuff for years though, and I have most of the requirements for my major covered, so I'm taking "interesting" courses like astronomy and music history.

@abigpony Programming is logical! Plus I couldn't grasp Flash's user interface. It was entirely non-obvious to me where to click in order to add something to the display. I couldn't get it to play a sound or even show a square on the screen, much less move it. I could at least figure out how to make a cube in Blender. (Never got past the "well, there's an empty world, now what?" step when I tried Ogre3D though.)

@abigpony yea. I'm just kinda jelly that there are some people who are massively talented at everything they ever attempt, and I can't manage to make a box. :/
Monday, 15-Aug-11 18:22:09 UTC from web -
@abigpony but... I know a guy like that, who is also a freaking talented programmer. :<
