creative careers fair

On the 25th of February we went to the creative careers fair at Bradford university this included listening to speakers, Phillip Charles who spoke about how he worked for an independent company called pipeline productions that teaches people how to rap among other things involving musical talent and explained how if you volunteer to do things it can earn you a reputation so you can eventually start charging people money for what you used to do for free, after we listened to some speakers we went to a workshop were we were split up into groups (our group was me, Joe and Scott) and had to make a simple animation using playdo our team made an animation about the T-1000 from terminator 2, once we got the camera working because the camera the university supplied didn’t work because they had no memory card and wasted 20+ minutes trying to get the camera working and some other people in the other groups who weren’t from our collage has the same problem of having a camera and no way to save pictures, so we had to use a camera once we finally got the pictures taken the animation took use about 5 minites to make 2 seconds of footage we then uploaded them to a laptop and into a program called monkey jam were we slowed the frame rate down to make it 4 seconds long, we didn’t like this program we would have preferred to use flash as we have used flash before and we had never even heard of this program before and we prefer flash
