Hello everyone, sorry it's been so long between posts! I have been getting headlong into my animation due in about 5 weeks, so its been a bit crazy here!
If any of you are already on the animation and vfx CSU course forum, here is a link to my page of posts, just a record of what's happening really. It can only be accessed by members though, so if you are already a member, feel free to check it out!
Laura Wingrove's Posts- AnimationVFX Forum
Just in case you are not a member, here is my latest of posts about ideas and concept art- it is still in the baby stages yet, but as always, any advice is greatly appreciated :)
"Hello there peoples! I have a new idea that I have been working on, and I apologise up front for the utterly shoddy nature of the following image, I reworked it so many times, then I got it wet! Arg!
Here is my first concepts for the main character (the little fellow on the far right) and two background characters that don't really ever move (the two on the left).
Here is a general overview of my idea- I hope you enjoy!
It centres on an adorable little ghostie boy, bored in his basement. All the technology is very old, and he is sick of playing with old sega systems and rusty old bikes. Well, trying to play with them anyway. He just goes right through it. His only other source of entertainment is his calendar, which is slowly counting down the days. He is so very excited for halloween, his favourite day of the year, when he can wander the streets without worrying about scaring anyone. It is also the day he can visit the family he left behind.
What do you guys think? It will mainly focus on his counting down the days and how he passes the time until halloween, and I think this idea will be a bit better for me now. My other idea involved experimenting with a style that I'm not really used to, so for my first animation I'd rather just go with what I know and love- really cute spooky things :)

MPI104 Assessment 1 Post
Hello there everyone, just an update on how MPI104 is going so far.
In terms of Blogger, this will be my seventh post, and I think these are a few of my favourite posts-
- Laura Wingrove's Blog- A Few Favourites (My Flickr Stream)
- Laura Wingrove's Blog- Delicious!
- Laura Wingrove's Blog- Inspiring
I also had some fun adjusting the colours, after mucking about with a few different templates and settling on a gorgeous stripey wallpaper-like design. I also made it electric pink, as I do love pink rather a lot.
Here are a couple of the posts on other blogs that I have commented on-
- Parker Bear Blog- Two Sleeping Boys
- The Cutler Family- Like Changing
I also find it so helpful to tag my posts, for my own reference as well as others, but here are a few of my most commonly used tags- mpi104, photo, cute, art, flickr, websites and delicious. Delicious is great!
I also added some features to either side of my blog, that show my recent posts and recent comments, and also a section allowing people to follow me by email if they wish to.
Here is my Blog!-
Laura Wingrove's Blog
We also did some setting up of a delicious account. I am really enjoying delicious, and love being able to share my favourite sites so easily.
I have 23 bookmarked webpages, that centre mostly on my favourite nerdy pages! I also have stacks for fun websites, vintage blogs and the MPI104 related sites too.
These are probably my 3 favourites-
- Distracted By Star Wars (DBSW)
- LATINAMERICANA- Vintage Blog
- 1001 Rules For My Unborn Son
Here is my delicious profile to check out all the nerdy goodness-
Laura Wingrove's Stacks- Delicious
Last but not least is my flickr stream! I am not such a big fan of flickr as I am of delicious, but I do think it is a good and easy way to share images.
I have 17 Images on my flickr stream so far, some personal pictures and some artworks from over the course of the last year.
Here are 3 of my favourites!-
- Laura Wingrove's Flickr Stream- Lost Kitty
- Laura Wingrove's Flickr Stream- Tiger Brand Coffee
- Laura Wingrove's Flickr Stream- Hawaiian Shirts, Kauai
Here is a link to my Flickr Stream if you would like to check out the rest-

So far MPI104 has been good for opening up the idea of blogging regularly, and I do really like delicious, I think that has been the best, most useful, website so far.
Thanks for reading!!
