Well I tend to change my background from time to time but, I always end up putting it back to the default. In my case it would be the default 'Aqua Blue' in Mac OS X. But, sometimes I'll have it as a photo I've taken or something else for a short period of time.
Newgrounds.com seems a great place for you to put your work That Animation really is great... who did the audio? The star wars music really suits it though
Your ersonal website is great... did you do a degree or anything? Or produce it for that? Its a really nice site and easy to get around
Thanks! For Candy Bar me and my friend did the few voices and sound effects, I then cut in the audio (although it skips and lags so I have to fix it) I made the site for myself just for fun and I think it really turned out well. I have some more Candy Bar production work and storyboard I might scan in later. My character (Named Mac) the tubby green guy is my own creation and I like doing a lot with him because it's fun, I do have a new cartoon short planned so when It's done I'll be sure to show it off here.
And this is my best animation to date (although I'm going back now and fixing some of my cheap animation tricks, audio syncing, and having a friend make new music to it to avoid any copyright issues) http://www.steven-matarazzo.com/candybar.html
Hello, Sam instant messeged me online and asked me to join this little community. You'll have to forgive me for any spelling errors since this PC doesn't have an auto-check while in web browsers.
I'm currently taking a Graphic Arts and Animation course but, I am well educated already in graphics and find myself correcting the teacher sometimes. I can use Photoshop, Flash, Dreamweaver, Illustator, InDesign, Quark, 3D Studio Max, Fireworks, and a few other programs. While when I get to working I can be lost making something for hours but, I do enjoy games too, mostly FPS games (Unreal Tournament, Half-Life 2, etc) and Sonic the Hedgehog games of course, along with Animal Crossing and Mario Kart (for the DS too, very fun online.)
I am quite fond of Flash and Photoshop so I think I'm the best at that so far. I use my new Intel iMac for everything but, I have a collection of older Macs and although I love Macs I know how to use a PC very well. I'm a techie and an artist and find myself doing tech support for most of my friends and family (although it gets annoying sometimes haha)
Hello everyone else, and I'll see you guys around.
