The First Lesson.

Today is the 26 of April and is the class's first IN3D lesson. We had our introductions and a cover view of what we were expected to do in the following weeks. This is similar to the previous lessons that I have so far so it was all usual. What alerted me was the warning given that we had to work more on our own with guidance. This does not bode well. It actually sounded like they were going to throw us into the deep end of the pool to watch us drown... Well it is still the first lesson so i guess it is normal to be so apprehensive. Soon we got down to our first lesson practice. We used Maya to learn how to create and manipulate objects and the task was to recreate an object given to us. I managed to achieve the desired object relatively quickly and was surprised to find that my classmates were still doing them. (quick learner? talent? well i can hope for the best in my studies i guess) However, I was quickly proven wrong.I had failed to give my object accuracy in putting them together and was deemed by the teacher as an inaccurate piece. (It had gaps and such) It spurned me to really concentrate and I was more than happy to be meticulous in adjusting my piece. On the whole and in summary, I have found it to be a very rewarding and fun lesson and I cant wait to do more.
