Recently I've been really interested in the pen tool. It's probably my favourite aspect of Fireworks, but I didn't start really using it until a few weeks ago. The pen tool is such a powerful tool in Fireworks, and it really does help for vector design and making careful selections.
Anyhow, I uploaded a speed art video of me vectoring a rainbow flower. Makes more sense if you give the video below a click.
So that was my first attempt at a speed art video. I made a few mistakes (forgot to maintain stable FPS throughout the video and forgot to hide the overlay), but overall I think it was a pretty good experience. The flower came out looking alright, although I probably could have done better with the pen tool.
In the past I used to be a strict coder (regardless of how bad I was), but now I'm more interested in film, animation, and design. However the gaming group has helped refresh my memory about web coding as I tried creating a website for the group not too long ago.
Happy Canada Day
I'm going to quickly wrap up this short post. Happy Canada Day to any Canadians out there (it's funny because a game I installed today was not playable in Canada). I don't really celebrate holidays, so today was a relatively normal day for me.
Summer has just been a real kick-back-and-relax type of summer for me. I have not done much over the summer, and there is nothing to do. The heat was unbearable today and I do not know how I will be able to survive the rest of summer if it gets any hotter. I'm an 8 today.
