Identities (Little about me)

Ok this going be a long post with images, I decided to think of who i am and my interests, this is my first part i decided to do before i start any piece of my outcomes *3D avatar,logo,av etc* though i will be posting more images of my identity like games i play, animes i watch, music i like, things i like.

I ended up coming with 3 interests/activities which is me, and few things which are features of me.

A big part of me though is Games (Interest/Activity) which i play alot online, everyday. Heres a good way i can see myself as a adverter and create my characters to represent myself, as well as making them the way i want to look too.


This would represent me because my favourite colour is blue, and i have blue highlights/shades, which is pretty much me (do diff styles diff times and diff shades from dark blue to light). Although in a way its a style i wouldnt do full hair light blue, but i have done full hair dark blue before.

A games magazine I created myself showing range of games i liked on the console (sadly cant create myself adverters since already made ones).

Another main interest of mine would have to be Music (Interest/Activity) which i love listening too and another main part of me that i do everyday.


My 3rd (Interest/Activity) which is a big part of my Indentity is Anime, which i watch alot everyday, heres a banner+Collage i did previously before uni that represent my interest in this.


I created these to represent my passion for anime, creating both a collage and a banner showing the range of animes.

Blue+Black
My favourite colours, you can see this in most my clothes i have which are mainly blue or black.
Blue Highlights
I always do diff styles blues and highlights in my hair which are shown in this image of myself and drawing i created previously before my course.



Inline Skating
Love skating, eventhough i havent done in about year i still have mine and plan to return to it sometime when i got free time.
P.s my next post will have my influences for my indentity, how im going draw my character (chibi style) etc, as well as rough ideas.

Metropolis (Movie) Lecture

This film was very long and I felt like it never ended, not only was it in black and white, but it was very boring as well, it also had subs+no talking. This could work in some films, on the other hand in this film it did not.
The message in the movie "The mediator between head and hands must be the heart!", is a interesting way to think although i do agree with it.
Say doing the work ur using ur head and then ur hands to write it down, but if it has no heart (feeling/emotion) in it then your work wont be as good as it can be because you have no feeling into it either agreeing or disagreeing in views, or the amount done.

This movie also reminded me how amazing it must of been back in the days, using creative ideas which gave birth to things like "Terminator" movie which we have today.

It also seems be based in alot of things, or resemble at least if not the same, I been watching a anime called "Huntik" and theres these 3 guardian titans that are of mind, body, spirit <---a little bit like the head, hand, heart thing.

Anime+Games

Ok well as you can see, "Animes" have influenced me alot as well as "Games", giving me a range of ideas for storylines, characters and animations.(See it in some of my work).
The Key elements I love about "Animes" or "Games" is how it catchs the attention and interact with the audience in a way, for example playing a "Game" your following the characters like your them. As for "Animes" watching every episode+movies gets you really attached to the characters feeling all senses of emotions, from sadness to joyful.
I started to be this way with the "Animes" im watching lately (eventhough im this way along time before lately), I cant seem to wait 1 week for a new episode of both "Naruto" and "Bleach". I also love the drawings and characters that are created for "Anime", as well as the counterpart "Manga".

Compurer games, well im a big fan off free online games from shoot ups to mmorpgs,
example are "S4 League" "Gunz" "Flyff" "Lunia" "Snow Project".
The intereaction in games are really appealing to every audience since its a form of entertainment.
(Will be posting pics of games i play sometimes as well as talking about each and animes too).
Eventhough I am heading towards audio/visal next year, I am also interested in animation+3D+website which I will still do in my own time.
Mainly wanting to combine video and audio with animation 3d (bit of it) doing special effects .

Own Compare





Thanks to sonny for showing the first link, lol this is sooo weird and crazyyy, yet the anime is very cool. Nice to see a music video with nothing related to what the song got created for.
Anyways this is just a simple compare i am decided to do, Eventhough not related to a area it is two of my interests about me (Music and Anime), as well as comparing practice with simularities.

The music video is about Wizard of Oz (yes strange) all happy/childish like, but the song was writen for a Anime:Soul Eater, which is about death reapers/demons/madness etc.
Seeing how there completey opposite of eachother is pretty interesting.

Dragon Ball= My Thoughts



Ok anyone seen Dragon Ball or Dragon Ball Z/GT when there were little ?, well they are remaking a movie of it based mainly from the manga.
Special effects seem pretty cool and loving the tech in it (space bike that bulma uses), though the actors seem weird and strange = they have the guy who plays spike in buffy as piccolo, and a white guy playing goku (asian in the anime/manga).
They also messed up the storyline :(, on the other hand I will probably watch it just cause of the special effects and curiousity of a live action dragon ball movie.
This is one of them times they should stop making cartoons/animes into movies with live actors, it ruins itself alot, though i may be wrong after I watch it.
P.S. the trailer is cool though!!! :P

Narrative Coursework 1: Part 3: Flash Narrative

Ok was my first flash narratives, storyline based on boy traveling to other worlds.
I am happy with this eventhough had alot of problems with script (didnt stop sometimes etc).
Though I did want use a song for different parts like battles but couldnt find out how to place a song and stop it, then start different one.

P.S just found out I found more script problems, it deleted some scripts by self -_-, and since I was in rush on friday I didnt see this till now, so i ended up just saving it on cd.
Got to love script <---sarcasm :(.
Hopefully teacher will check my blogger for this final version, or ask in presentation on tuesday.


Flash Narrative by ~LightDuo on deviantART

P.s i really really dont like Deviant Art, it prevents alot of things such as deleting ur own comments etc. I have posted wrong msgs too people and wouldnt even let me delete them.
