Today at University I played with Mr. Potato Head

After an introduction to Softimage the first thing to get your head around with the software is working in 3d space. No better way to do this of course than to have a play around with a dissembled Mr and Mrs Potato Head.

In all seriousness this was a good task to get used to navigating three dimensions. Initially this was a little tricky, for example, from one angle Mr Potato Head's hat sat nicely atop his spud head yet as I used the newly learned shortcuts to swing the camera around it was actually nowhere near his head, a trick of the eye. But with a little time the putting together of pieces became a little easier and I look forward to positioning the tasty couple in some kind of comic way, and posting the results over the next week.

you have saved our lives: we are eternally grateful.
