Maya hurts so good.

Well, after last nights post I laid down and just couldn’t go to sleep. I would tell myself that it can wait until tomorrow, but then I would start to think about the +/- node and the fact that there are all these numbers in the x y and z direction. Then I would say “stop it and go to sleep” but a moment later I would be thinking that there are conditional nodes that would let me decide what to do with the color depending on how close to 0 the locator moved.

Well it was no use, I got up and went in and started clicking away… yup started working on the color wheel assignment, and now I feel like I am being taunted. Sitting here at work eating a burger, I want to be at home trying to solve the problem. This class is so much agonizing fun that I am wondering if I am actually a masochist? While I am doing it, my brain all but wants to shut down, but it is just so much fun…

Funny thing is that I think I have learned more in the past week than I did in the whole two years it took me to get my visual communications degree, but that is a whole different story.

So while I am at work and through eating lunch I though I would sit down and use the blog to start brainstorming and kind of share my thoughts. Now I am going into this without a clue of how to accomplish it, and it has not been easy as I have had to not read posts on 3dBuzz as well as another blog because they started to talk about how they did the assignment. I want to do this, and I want to do it all by myself. Good thing I do have Photoshop here at work… oh wait, even better, I have Visio :)

Brainstorming:

This section removed due to the fact that I thought about it and don't want to spoil this for future students.
