In addition to updating your Animal Book, review your notes and readings and select words to add to the eBestiary Lexicon.  On Monday, each of you will be responsible for submitting 5 words not duplicated by others.  This means that you should develop a list of considerably more than 5 in case others have found the same words as you.  Accompany each word with its definition, the source of the definition and a sentence using the word that helps clarify its meaning.  Include a citation for where you first read the word if that is different from the source of the definition.

Finally, note that the due date for completed Character Animation sequences is now Thursday, May 17th (not Tuesday the 15th).

Reminders: Bring your Animal Books for the work-in-progress critique Monday morning, and add your animal info page to the Animal Wall in our studio if you haven’t done that already (it was due today, Thursday, 4/19).

If you signed up as a van driver, or alternate driver on the field trip, you need to have gotten your College driving permit by Monday.

We’ve added a new resource page to the blog, attached to the Assignments page, that has links to interesting animation and drawing related sites and images.  We’re choosing things that might help you with your drawing, animation and Animal Book assignments.  We’ll be adding material to this page as the quarter goes on.
