Self Evaluation
I really learn a lot through out this course I gotten a greater appreciation for the process of planning and storyboarding an animation. I feel I have improve a lot over this semester and can still learn more when it comes to character animation. the areas I have improved a lot is modeling the modeling aspect of this project though I can still use some work on texture mapping but I feel that I will be a better animator as time goes on.

A scene that displays great acting and emotion...
Example of a scene that displays great acting and emotion (How to Train Your Dragon)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzxeKHA_jOw&feature=related
I like the camera angles used in the movie. What I really like the most in this scene overall is the build up that leads to the beginning of Hiccup's and Toothless's friendship. I liked when Hiccup, with his head down and away from Toothless, held his hand up to Toothless and Toothless and hesitates for a second be for putting his nose in Hiccup's hand. Lighting of that particular scene makes it almost magical like it's a way to to reinforce that that something important and life changing has just happened.
