I finally managed to get in for a quick tutorial for After Effects on Friday, which seems very straightforward, but I can pretty much guarantee that at some point I’ll encounter some confusion between timing and keyframes. Because I usually do.
The animation department insisted that I use After Effects. I can’t do ironing board and old LPs like Alex Pearl does, because it just wouldn’t be right!!
I snuck into his talk at The Collection this afternoon, and sat sniggering at the thought of Button Moon and Dave Gorman, amongst other things. Once those things appear in your mind, that’s it.
I of course never know who’s coming to the artist’s talks, because no one ever tells me. So I go along and have to guess. At some point I will do one of my own…
And it was nice to see John Newling’s Lemon Tree, grown from The Noah Laboratory: Constructing Soil compost he made last February, in a somewhat space – like capsule in The Collection.
I attended a networking event last Thursday evening for Enterprise @ Lincoln, and would’ve thought it a complete waste of time if it wasn’t for some drama students that want to involve the LAN for a forthcoming project, and another student who inquired if we were the ones that did an art installation around the Brayford Pool last summer. (The Lady Of Shalott/The Cupboard Project) It means we’re recognised locally for what we do, which is a good thing.
We have some space booked at The Terrace in Lincoln from next Friday, and a few members are keen to have a mini Alice exhibition there over Easter.
This will run from 8th – 21st April, and I’m just in the process of finalising details for that. I however, am looking forward to going to the Isle Of Wight courtesy of The Young Victoria. A visit to Osbourne House will be lovely, especially because it’s all free!
