How does one get into the animation field?
I want to be able to create my own cartoons eventually. I love the unique worlds such as Cowboy Bebop, or Aeon Flux… and I want to know how to get a job like that.


I graduated from art college several years ago. AAC in the bayarea. If you don’t know anyone who’s in animation field, you can try to present your idea and art work to the teachers in art school. Most of teachers in my school are not professional educator but professional artist. Such as most teachers who is teaching animation may from the big film company. Some of them fly from LA to give us class everyweek.
I thought you may start from their if you go some good stuff. But if you really got some great stuff, be careful with who you deal with. We had sign the contract that all our works belong to school when we were. I have known there some teachers keep student’s idea become their own…

Look into getting enrolled in a graphic arts class in a college or school, and take it from there.
Harley | Mar 24, 2006


Do a course in Animation…. If your drawing is very very good, then you stand a good chance.
nice_libra_guy | Mar 24, 2006


If you have the love and obviously talent you can!
Good animation takes countless time and effort.
Be consistant do not drift in to other things in that area
You can professionalize abything if you just keep on keeping on!

Goodluck, animation is good fun work
bringin life to a character is certainlya great feeling of giving birth.

Does anyone know this poems author?
If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you.
And share with you it’s beauty
On the days you’re feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea.
But all these things I’m finding
are impossible for me,
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be…what I know best,
a friend that’s always there.

Thats the poem, but I need to know who the author of the poem is, for a school project! I got it from a website earlier but I can’t find the website again. ughhh does anyone know who wrote it?


i think it’s by Winniek Koh, she’s written a few other poems you might like too if you look her up
good luck with the project!

I need to find a way to edit or convert my m2ts files so adobe premiere stops lagging?
My video camera makes high defintion m2ts files which are of high quality, however, my laptop isn’t really good enough to allow me to edit smoothly using Adobe premiere elements.
Before this I tried using pinnacle studios but that lagged even more, and so recently I tried converting the m2ts files into many different formats, here are the results:
avi - doesn’t work - no sound
mpg - doesn’t work - no picture
wmv - works but creates a laggy effect
mp4/mpv - worked the best and I thought I had found a solution - the videos were of much less quality but were now about a fifth of the size, but when I opened Adobe up to edit them I actually found it lagged much much more with these files than it did with the HD m2ts files.
I couldn’t find video converting software that just turned m2ts files into lower quality m2ts files but would that work, does anyone have any idea of what I should do?


You already answered your own question: "laptop isn’t really good enough to allow me to edit"… use a computer that exceeds the minimum requirements for MTS file editing.

Little Dog | Dec 23, 2009


You can convert the HD video to common file. I recommend you a HD Video Converter which can convert HD TS, HD MTS, HD M2TS, HD MPEG, HD WMV, HD MPG, HD MP4, QuickTime HD MOV, HD H.264, HD RM video, etc.

It also can edit the HD movies, such as CUT a video clip, crop the movie, merge several files into one file and so on.

Hope it helps!

Keep track of ur health and keep refiling it whenever it goes down. To do this u will need a lot of health. So try to get as much as health point from vaulting all items and then increase ur skill point in health.
–>Try to increase ur mafia size. (its not tough). just go to any mafia war community and check the forum for long email list. Send request to all and u will be 501+ in 2 days
–>Get some defense boost when u hit-list yourself or ask ur friend to do so. first 5 mins are very crucial once u are past that everything is easy. people think u are very tough and normally don’t attack u much.

If u have any more problem ask me on facebook

Never Say Never by The Fray

Some things we don’t talk about
better do without
just hold a smile
we’re falling in and out of love
the same damn problem

together all the while
you can never say never
why we don’t know when
time and time again
younger now then we were before
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go

picture, you’re the queen of everything
as far as the eye can see
under your command
i will be your guardian
when all is crumbling
steady your hand

you can never say never
why we don’t know when
time and time again
younger now then we were before
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go

we’re falling apart
and coming together again and again
we’re coming apart
but we pull it together
pull it together, together again

don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go,
don’t let me go(x2)

Jaws 2

Jaws 2
Jaws 2 (1978)

IMDB rating: 5.50

Plot: The small island resort town of Amity is trying to bounce back from the financial problems it had after becoming known as the site of shark attacks four years ago. Mayor Larry Vaughn is welcoming developer Len Peterson and his new resort to Amity. Two scuba divers are exploring the area where the Orca sank after police chief Martin Brody killed a huge shark four years ago. A shark shows up and kills the two divers, but not before one of the divers takes a close-up picture of the shark’s eye, and sometime later, while a mother is driving a boat that’s pulling her water-skiing teenage daughter, the shark kills the daughter and causes the mother to accidentally blow up the boat, then a killer whale is found on the shore with a huge bite on it. After Brody sees this, he knows there’s another huge great white shark in Amity’s waters, but Vaughn and Peterson explain these attacks away as non-shark accidents, because the thought of another shark in Amity’s waters would drive tourists away from the new resort and cause the new resort to lose money. It looks like Vaughn is still a mayor who puts money ahead of people’s lives. Brody tips his gun’s hollow point bullets with cyanide and melted candle wax and tells his sons Michael and Sean to stay away from the beaches and tells them to not go sailing with Mike’s friends, who include Vaughn’s son Larry Vaughn Jr. Everyone thinks Brody’s fears are shark trauma-induced paranoia. Brody even tries to call his friend Matt Hooper, who is doing research on a boat in the Antarctic Circle, and Matt will be in the Antarctic Circle for a few more months. While keeping an eye on the waters from the beach’s shark tower, Brody sees a huge dark spot in the water and rings the tower’s alarm bell, but it turns out to be a school of bluefish. Vaughn fires Brody for causing this panic at the beach and scaring tourists and their money away, and even though they were told not to, Michael and Sean go out sailing with Junior Vaughn and their friends, unaware that the shark is trailing them. Brody knows it’s up to him to find them before the shark kills too many of them.

Pain and numbness after root canal. Can I reduce?
I had 2 root canals on Monday one upper and one lower on the same side. Even now on Saturday I am in severe pain and the lower part of my jaw is numb. After looking at previous questions I figure that the needle hit the nerve and that there is not much I can do about the numbness. Which is ok, annoying, but ok. The pain is a real problem. I work with severely autistic children who are really aggressive and the pain makes me quite cranky and short tempered which is a problem. My real concern is though that the pain is distracting, and I could get really hurt if I do not pay attention to these kids.. I have taken the vicodine, the Advil, and even morphine and nothing is touching this. I have now lost a week of work. Can anyone help me? Can I put heat or ice on it? is there a better painkiller? Even telling me to suck it up is ok, I just need some help. Also some ideas of what I can eat that doesn’t hurt would be great.
Thanks


If you are still experiencing pain you need to go back to the dentist. Nobody likes going back, but too bad. Whatever it is that you logically think is going on is irrelevant. You need to "suck it up" and head on back to the dentist. You shouldn’t be on narcotics while working with kids anyway. Get to the root of the pain (no pun intended) and fix it, rather than medicating if possible. I’ve had two root canals at one time and I can tell you from my own experience that your situation is nothing like mine… I was over the pain in a couple days.
Answer Fairy | Feb 06, 2010


Call your doc’s office first thing tomorrow morning. You shouldn’t be having this much pain for this long. Good luck.

Inherit the Wind quote analysis please!?
i need a a good descriptive analysis of these quotes please help its for a test!

1. (Pg 17) Hornbeck: "a man who wears a cathedral for a cloak, a church spire for a hat…"
2. (Pg 33) Rachel: "a schoolteacher is a public servant: I think he should do what the law and the school-board want him to. if the superintendent says, ‘Miss Brown, youre to teach formt eh Whitley’s Second Reader," i dont feel i have to give him an agreement."
3. ( Pg 34) Rachel: "Matthew Harrison Brady came here to find himself a stump to shout from. thats all."
4. (Pg 47) Drummond: ‘all i want is to prevent the clock-stoppers from dumping a load of medival nonsense into the United States Constitution."
5. (Pg 51) Drummond: "im sorry if i offended you. but i dont swear just for the hell of it. you see, i figure language is a poor enough means of communication as it is. so we ought to use all the words we’ve got. besides, there are damned few words that everybody understands."
6. (Pg 51-52) Rachel: "can you buy back his respectability by making him a coward? i understand what berts going through. its the lonliest feeling in the world—to find yourslef standing up when everybody else is sitting down. to have everybody look at you and say, ‘Whats the matter with him?’ i know. i know what it feels like. walking down an empty street, listening to the sound of your own footsteps. shutters closed, blinds drawn, doors locked agaisnt you."
7. (Pg 55) Drummond: " the man who has everything figured out is probably a food. college examinations notwithstanding, it takes a very small fella to say, ‘i dont know the answer!’"
8. (Pg 66) Brown: "O lord of the Tempest and the thunder. o lord of righteousness and wrath! we pray that thou wilt make a sign unto us! strike us down this sinner, as thou didst Thine enemies of old, in the days of the Pharoahs! let him feel the terror of Thy sword! for all eternity let his soul writher in anguish and damination—"
9. (Pg 66-67) Brady: " reverend brown i know it is the great zeal of your faith which makes you utter this prayer. bit is it possible to be overzealous to destroy that which you hope to save—so that nothing is left but emptiness. remember the wisdom of Solomon in the Book of proverbs. ‘he that troubleth his own house…shall inherit the wind’"
10. ( Pg 67) Drummond: "all motion is relative perhaps it is you who have moved away—by standing still."
11. (Pg 68) Howard: "well he said at first the earth was too hot for any life. then it cooled off a mite and cells and things begun to live"
12. (Pg 71) Drummond:"im trying to establish your honor that howard or colonel brady or charles darwin or anyone in this courtroom or you sir has the right to think!"
13. (Pg 72) Drummond: "with allrespect to the bench i hold that the right to think is very much on trial! it is fearfully in dnager in the proceedings of the court!"
14. (Pg 91) Drummond: "it frightens me to imagine the state of learning in this world if everyone had you driving curiousity"
15 ( Pg 93) Drummond: "yes! the individual human mind…. (long speech)"
16. (Pg 94) Drummond: " this man wishes to be accorded the same priviliege as a sponge! he wishes to think!"
17. ( Pg 97) Brady: "i mean to state that the day referred to is not necessarily a twenty-four-hour day"
18. (Pg 110) Drummond: " Bert, whenever you see something bright, shining, perfect-seeming—all gold, with purple spots—look behind the paint! and if its a lie—show it up for what it really is!"
19. (Pg 115) Cates: "I was a schoolteacher. i fee; i am…i have been convicted on violation an unjust law. i will continue in the future as I have in the past to oppose this law in any way I can. I—"
20. (Pg 119-120) narration: "As the orator is maneuvered into position he seems almost to be an inanimate object like a huge ornate vase which must be precisly centered on a mantel." AND " Then like a figure in a waxworks, toppling from it pedestal, he falls stiffly, face forward"
21. ( Pg 126) Drummond: "he that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise in heart"


I don’t think most people on this forum want to do your homework for you so I would suggest you go to cliffnotes and read their summary of ITW and also their quote analysis. It may help you find the answers you want. Good luck!
