Follow me everywhere

Hello.

Just to let you know, I am on social media other than Blogger. this includes: Twitter, YouTube, Scratch, Roblox, and Twitch.

On Twitter, I post my dumb thoughts about random things. On Youtube, I upload edited videos. On Scratch and Roblox, I share games that I have made. I... really don't do anything on Twitch. Most of these sites I am active on regularly.

(Insert More shameless vehicles here)

Flash Trial over

Hello. My trial is over for Adobe Flash. I hate the Creative Cloud business model. I am not alone, either. Many animator have just gone over to older suites like CS3 through torrenting. They seem to be just as functional as CC and without the awful business model. The subscription has turned many people off of the software. Those who are not have no alternative in sight. This sort of thing could be referred to as a monopoly. I think that goes too far, though.

Flash Animation

Hello once again.

I have been making small attempts at animation and such in adobe flash. I have been trying it primarily due to my trial running out soon. I have recently scraped together enough for a subscription but I would like to keep using it for free. As many others say, "Creative Cloud has done for Creativity what the Creative Cloud has done for Industrial Sewage Management- Absolutely Nothing." But who knows? I may have something to show for my practice eventually! New pictures going up on Twitter soon.

Side note: Don't go inverted in a downwards-vectoring VTOL. It doesn't go well.

Profile pictures

Hey everyone. I post one blog after another just because that is how I roll.

I have been drawing profile pictures for my friends as flash practice, and WOW it is difficult. I suck at three things when it comes to drawing. 1. Faces, 2. Hands, and 3. Proportions. So this has been going well. It takes a long time, but I guess i need to start somewhere if I want to animate in flash. But until then, I had better get in all the practice I can.

Projects and updates!

Hooray, an update blog and still very little content to show for my hiatus.
Hello again.

As you may know, I am the biggest procrastinator when it comes to YouTube. I say that I am doing something and then I forget, lose interest, etc. However, I may make a short in Blockland that shouldn't take too long. I do Blockland skits with my friends sometimes so I figured I might as well put some of them on YouTube! Hope you enjoy (If I ever make them)

What is Thrust Vectoring?

Hello. This is a shorter blog than usual. My friend irritated me with a rather uneducated argument about jet engines, especially the one to be mounted on the F-35. He hadn't any idea what he was talking about so I will create a quick explanation here to vent.

Thrust vectoring is the manipulation of the thrust from an engine to direct an aircraft or spacecraft. The gimbal of the engine can direct the thrust downwards to push the aircraft's nose down as well. On aircraft this is used in conjunction with the control surfaces. On many spacecraft the gimbal is the only means of control other than the reaction wheels. Thrust vectoring is not used on propellers. Also, thrust vectoring is not the manipulation of thrusted air after it leave the engine. This should clear up some of the misconceptions.

Infomercial Knockoff

Hello all!

A week or so ago, I created a commercial with some classmates. I am debating whether or not to upload it to my channel. It came out relatively well, and earned a Best in Class award. We all worked hard on it. Personally, I was editor and cameraman. My classmates acted and voiced the commercial. It is for a product called the Paper Holderoo. If I do upload it, I do hope you enjoy!
