Today I started doing a timeline of the stages of a stars life cycle.This starts with reactions happening between Hydrogen and Helium, and ends with the star shrinking, the swelling into a red giant.
I didn't get to finish the red giant part, so that will be the next thing I do.
This blog was once used for classes but now I will be posting any work I am doing related to animation, and perhaps any interesting things I stumble across online.

Space Cloud
I have drawn a space cloud today.
It is going to turn into a meteor, planet, and a star.
I will do at least one of those 3 things later today and post again.

Life Of Stars Sample
Here is everything I have for this project so far.
I'd like some comments so I know if this is acceptable so far or not.
Excuse the poor sound quality. At least you can still understand what I'm saying.
Once upon a time, Flash used to have no problem with sound quality. I don't know what happened to that but it's getting annoying.
EDIT: Never mind, I figured out the problem with the sound. It's because lately I have started using the "Stream" property for sounds.

So Many Dots...
Drew the Milky Way today...
This comes before the sun scenes that I posted yesterday.
I'm thinking of making some fitting background music...I'm not sure if it's worth it.

Saturday April 23: Part 2
I seem to not have the Milky Way I was working on before I lost my computer saved anywhere.
That's annoying.
Rather than restart that, I showed how big the Earth is in comparison to the sun.
And that's all until tomorrow...

Saturday April 23: Part 1
What a nice rainy day to do work on a space project as I watch Spaceballs.
So far today I have recorded most of the narrations for this project and drew the surface of the sun, as shown below.
I will post again later, after I have finished drawing the Milky Way.

Back On Track
I just got my laptop back and I will do a whole lot of catching up for all of my classes this weekend.

The Saga Continues
I have worked on the Stars animation a little more...although not much.
I'll make up for all the lost time once I get my computer back.
I know I can fly through a lot of this since there's not much to it other than rendering different forms of stars.

Computer Trouble
April 16:
My laptop seems to have something very wrong with it and I am taking it to the Apple Store tomorrow to (hopefully) be fixed. I was able to get important things on a flashdrive. I was told it's likely a graphics problem and I do not run the risk of losing any files. Unfortunately this means I will not be making much progress on any work this weekend, but I did manage to move a little further on the stars animation as I play around and am getting my laptop to work for a few hours at a time.
Right now, I'm going to go attempt to record some narrations for my project.

Life Of A Star
Last night and today I have done work on my science animation.
I am posting a sample of what is done so far below.
I have dumped the idea of having a character in it, even if it was just for a few seconds, it seems disconnected from what the rest of the animation will look like.
Since I have been sick, I will not record the narrations yet, but thankfully, I can still work on animating and just time it with the narration later.
I have mostly everything storyboarded out, I just don't know how this is going to end yet.
