From This experience I have learned many things. The people in my workspace are very distracting I have learned to cope and to stimulate their nonsense. I use it for the better. This is the very first thing i have ever created in maya. It was very productive and although it is just a mug it cost me lots of work time and was well worth it. I painted my mug red because i rarely see any red mugs. The point of this project was to understand the basics and fundamentals of maya. Now that i know that I am able to move fluently among the task bars and many strange buttons.

What I did in class today was alter the inside of the cup so it was more realistic.

The object I am creating is a mug. This is a simple mug and i got the idea from Mrs. Goeldner's penguin mug. The elements I will incorporate are cylinder, and a Torus.

Attribute Editor Notes

Like the channel Box, You can view and edit the basic transform information and many other keyable attributes. However, the attribute editor provides a more detailed display of all attributes for a selected object.

To view object attributes using the attribute editor
In the scene view select the object. To view the attribute editor click the show/ hide icon on the status line. Click the selected object

What I learned.

When I came to class, I did not know what we were doing. But as class progressed I simply became aware of the tasks our animation class must complete. We received a stack of papers stapled together. The point of these papers were to finish the instructions written on it. I did a few of the instructions and i learned about more shapes.

To move the half sphere you can use the tool on the side and use the rotate tool to move it to the pedestal.

How do you make things move?
How do you make your own objects on the plane?
When will we do a full animation?

My New Years Resolution is to do better in my school work. To do this i have to do all my work and listen to all my teachers. I also have to not let other students not let me do my work.

My SMART Goal is to work harder in school. I want to do this because I have learned education is a major part in every ones life. I used to not appreciate school but now I do after a series of events that have occurred. I plan to do this this semester and my senior year. I'm going to listen to the teacher and do the things I need to achieve this.
