Hey,
a movie! For all that 'movies' is in Elfinessé's subtitle, it's been
a long time for the first one to get here... Anyway, this is my first video
of Ceniro, made with Windows Movie Maker and Photoshop. Credit goes to Fire
Emblem Planet for a couple of things and The Spriters Resource for others. I drew Ceniro
and arranged the different images in Photoshop... the background, the nameplates,
the HPs and percentages... it took a long time. And then came the creating
of dozens of PNGs. The next movie is up to over 400 PNGs and is not even
close to being finished! It would help if I worked on it once in a while...
next summer, maybe! Anyway, putting in WMM wasn't too hard. It's just the
animation takes forever. I have to make some major changes to the sprite...
it doesn't look right at all. I'm not sure how I'm going to do it, but I'll
figure it out eventually. Oh, and the sound was recorded straight from the
GBA using the microphone plugged into the computer. Right from the FE7 Sound
Room. It stutters at the end because I wasn't sure how to use the microphone
so it didn't make the sound file all in one go.Was going to say other stuff, but I'm going to go practice now. I did buy a bunch of books at the university, though, which look very interesting. Huzzah!
Hey, it's Picture A 440! ...musical joke. Sawwy.
See you in September!
Quiz/Poll Questions: Is WordPress really as easy to use as people say it is? How hard would it be to create my own look with it? Any ideas for the Kalmaeiric word 'north'? Is the latest Photoshop decently easy to use?
