Wacom tablet



The Wacom intuos tablet that I purchased arrived last week. It is a drawing tablet that offers Flash artists more control and accuracy that drawing in flash with just a mouse. I have let several students play around with it and it seems to be a hit.

The tablet came with an assortment of software and brushes. We'll keep you posted of any discoveries that we come across.

Crazy....

Things have been nuts lately. I've been trying to give everybody and everything my 100%. Well folks...it didn't happen. I think everybody has been getting about 10-15% from me. So I had stop and take a breath. I just had step back and not try to run on instinct, because it was just scatter shot! I had to get organized and get a plan in place to get everything done that I needed to get done. I haven't got everything done but I am in better shape than I was 2 or 3 weeks ago. So what I am saying is...Yes, things in here are going to seem like they're overwhelming but if we just sit down get a plan in place and follow through. Everything will be okay.

Peace out!

Paper Prototyping

I started Paper Prototyping with my class yesterday. The students really seemed to be getting into it. to spice it up a bit, we decided to use colored pencils. I think when we present using the ELMO, the colors will stand out better than just black and white. Check in next week to see the videos.
