I didn't have any classes scheduled this week. I decided not to do the seminar on color management in Photoshop CS5, and wait for the advanced class which will cover the material in August.

There's also some more image work waiting for me for the iPad game. My struggle to draw with the pen tool is ongoing, but I have shown some improvement ( Read more... )

I finished the Flash cs4 book earlier this evening. My brain is bursting with new information. I'll start making my way through another one of my technical books tomorrow.

It's been quiet the last few days. Still checking out the job listings. I saw two more positions, one full time and one contract that I will submit resumes for over the weekend. I spent part of yesterday doing work on images for the iPad game, and today will be more of the same. I plan to have brunch with my friends m&j tomorrow, which will give me ( Read more... )

I admit that I am intrigued by the trailer I saw for Halo Reach while I was watching tv last night, but Crackdown 2 will be the one that rules my world. This will provide sufficient motivation for me to build the ipad application prototype I want to use on the next job interview ( Read more... )

I signed up for next week's Garage Band workshop at the apple store. I also looked at some other classes, but I didn't see anything scheduled in the immediate future that caught my eye ( Read more... )
