Journal Entry: Tue May 29, 2007, 7:18 PM
I'm seriously considering picking up the new Adobe Creative Premium Suite that has:

- Adobe InDesign CS3
- Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended
- Adobe Illustrator CS3
- Adobe Flash Pro CS3
- Adobe Dreamweaver CS3
- Adobe Acrobat Pro 8

Has anyone used the latest Photoshop, Illustrator, and Flash particularly? I have a tendency to use older versions of software just because I'm too scared of bugs with newer versions.

Also, I'd like to try my hand at 2-D animation once again because I miss it too much. I'd like to know if anyone has animated with Flash and how they felt about it. Being that I don't have a scanner, I'd like to attempt animating using my tablet and 'onion skinning' on my PC. My only major concern is not being able to flip through the pages... ;_;

I did it before using Photoshop where I would set the opacity below the layer to a lower number just so I can 'tween and do my own digital paint for each keyframe, but I know there's many programs that are more suitable for it. If you know of a good 2d animation program instead of Flash, let me know too!

Now that I'm starting to have more time on my hands again, (thank goodness) I'd like to make good use of it. ;)

Mine went alright. I 'finished' my final project...but I'm really gonna keep animating it because the animation right now isn't up to par. Otherwise, I'm planning to do more animation tests and stuff to put in my demo reel. I'm sorry to hear about your rough quarter...but hey, just keep trucking :)
~chadracine:iconchadracine: Mar 16, 2006, 3:38:19 AM
Hey you... to answer your question... it "went." Nothing I did for studio2 is portfolio worthy and our project fell through, so I pretty much wasted 10 weeks of studio time :/ I'm pretty nervous about this coming trimesting being the last, especailly since I dont feel Ill have a strong porfolio.

How did yours go?
