I was getting pretty frustrated at the program. I was the only one out of my group who was actually attempting to figure out how the mapping works and how to mask areas that we didn't want. The program is simple enough, but for some reason the computer was being a cray and opening dozens of pages (another classmate had set up the computer incorrectly) and it was really annoying to work with. I was masking one of our animations and then pressed a button that I thought would let me put another layer on, but it deleted everything I had just done and one of the people from my group was like, "ugh! do it again!" and i was like thinking, "hey man, chill your pants. we all don't know how this program works so don't get shitty at me for making a mistake. it's all part of the learning process and at least i'm giving it a go."
What was more annoying was that whenever Sean was explaining things to me, the others weren't even making an effort to listen. So, I've been taught and I know that later on, I will have to teach them or they will depend on me to set up everything next Tuesday.
Rahhh at least I have learnt some things. I'm happy about my own progress. Programs are always frustrating at the start, and I already feel more comfortable with it. I talked a lot with Sean today and he helped me quite a bit.
Again, I felt pretty bad for him. After class he was apologising for the fact that we hadn't had access to projecting till this week. It wasn't even his fault and he shouldn't have to say sorry. I think he's doing a really good job with what he's been given.
I cannot even handle that this assignment is work 30%. It actually worries me. I need to keep my grades decent because of exchange. roarrrrrs
