Animation Club Adventure

After making a bunch of progress on my midterm in my CS 235 class I decided to join the Animation club. I need to practice drawing after all. So Its a figure drawing class (Fully clothed, and just random members posing). But I thought that it would be a good idea to get an hour or so of drawing in for the week. Since I haven't done any quality drawing for some time. So I head out to A560 in the HFAC at 7 tonight. As soon as I walk in I notice that they had two models going simultaneously. A guy on the close side, and a girl on the other side. On top of that, it was a true figure drawing session because they were just in swimsuits. This was a surprise, since usually we only do the swimsuit drawings on Friday mornings.

So that was cool! The Animation club was starting to go all out! It was sure a surprise! Usually we would just take turns going up there and making short dumb poses for the other people in the club. Then I noticed something strange. It was dead silent. I mean it, deathly silent. Something was wrong. Animation club was almost more about cracking jokes than drawing. They're all such goofy people I could never believe they would be this silent. Then I noticed something else strange, no one had a sketchbook out. No, they all had big ol' pieces of Newsprint. Like the full size 2 foot by 4 foot pages, or whatever the size is. Something was seriously wrong now... I started to panic. I lean forward and ask the guy in front of me as to whether this was an actual class, which of course it was. Perfect.

I can't even imagine how dumb I looked just walking in all confidently into the middle of a class. Where was the teacher to look at me like the idiot I was? Or one of the students to say something? I must have been like an hour late and didn't have the newsprint. Ah well. So those would have been my sketches for this week but I kind of failed. So I guess I'll have to try again next Wed night at 7. We'll see what happens, and I'll be sure to post something by then at the latest!

Peace
