End of the year blog post

My favorite part of this year was being able to learn about animation and how to create fluid movements and portray emotion. It’s something that really interested me and It helped me learn How to create a story. While I am unable to create a script, this class has helped me move forward into my dreams of creating my own cartoons.  What was most difficult for me however was just trying to learn and understand blender. For most it was easy, but for me it seemed like I missed a step every time! With practice, I’ll be able to improve though!
