Earlier "Light (tutorial)" with text tutorial added

This is from a tutorial I did earlier and when I finished I thought something more was needed. So I added "light" that I made from a text tutorial.

I made Mr. Sands into a fairy

The sparkles are too random, but I do like the wings. The color of his face now kind of bugs me though. For the goal being to turn someone into a fairy, this piece is very successful. The wings I think work really well, more so the left one then the right, and the headband doesn't really work too well. Seems too random. If I did this project again I would choose to change the hair and the skin color. The hardest park about completeing this was having to remake the whole picture after my first one didn't save correctly. I learned to take my time saving my files so they don't get ruined.

Talking Characters


Talking Characters from Mike Cooper on Vimeo.
I like the way this video turned out and it makes me laugh when I watch it. For what I was attempting to do I think this is a pretty successful piece, but the expressions I made didn't really work too well so if i were to do it again i would add more frames of the expressions or add the expressions while they talk. The most difficult part of this project was dealing with Mr. Sands only giving one piece of the project everyday so by the time I had all the instructions I realized that half the things I made the previous days I either had to do again of add to it. I learned that flash isn't that hard, it's just time consuming for such little results
