Yep, it's this topic again. I know there's already a 'Introduce Yourself!' thread up, but why start a whole new one?
Well, simply because I think a lot of us, those of us in second year especially, have changed a lot over the last year. So here's our opportunity to introduce ourselves all over again. First years are of course encouraged to participate. Just give your name (don't have to give your real one), where you come from, what interests you in animation, and so on.
Well, my name's Alex Mason, although I'm fine if people call me 'Atcote' (as quite a few do). For the sake of the first years, I was your O-Week leader during the tour and your introduction to the lecturers. I come from Wangaratta down in Victoria. My interests in Animation extend to my lifelong enjoyment of the medium (ranging from Disney to anime to stop motion, all the way to Beast Wars). I've been drawing my entire life, although what really got me into a post-childhood love of animation, I must admit, was Dragonball Z.
I plan to spend this year experimenting with all sorts of animation, and hope to give stop motion a good go. I admit to liking to stick to 2D, but 3D is also of great interest to me, and want to experiment with sound effects. (You know, as in, do everything that this course is here for us for).
Once I've completed of this course, I plan to travel to England and try my hand at work there.
Okay, so I haven't changed all that much, but I look forward to reading everyone else's entries! Welcome first years!
