Wednesday & Thursday

On Wednesday I opened the scene where Dan and Lucy are sitting on the bench and found that it went all funny in the middle. I discovered, eventually, that this was because I had copied one frame and pasted it many times, but had changed the arm position of Dan in just one of the frames, which made them all change also. I spent a lot of Wednesday's lesson trying to fix this and came up with a solution that actually worked a couple of minutes before the bell. It was to copy the frame into the background, trace it in the foreground and then delete it in the background, which was very time consuming but the only thing I could think of. Unfortunately, I was unable to finish this before the end of the lesson so spent a bit of Thursday's lesson working on it.
I had finished fixing that glitch by halfway through Thursday's lesson so was able to start making Dan and Lucy stand and prepare to walk away. I decided that the best way to do this would be to just copy the first frames of the scene and reverse them. This worked well until I had to make the "camera zoom out" using key frames as I had to start a new scene because there were already key frames in the foreground and background of this one. This meant that I had to export the last nine or so frames and trace them in a new scene, which I started on Thursday, but haven't yet completed.
