Flip Book



This is my flip book and it is in the style of the old cartoons like Tom and Jerry, Looney Toons, The Flintstones, The Jetsons, etc.  I really enjoyed those type of cartoons as a kid because of my Dad and thats what he use to watch when he was little so it was cool to grow up with those cartoons.  I did my flip book in a copy of frankenstein that I had from last year which was very convenient.  This assignment also took me a lot longer than I expected it to this just gave me a new respect for the people who created cartoons like this without computers.

Grid Project

So what I did was I completely made the footage black and white which gave the film a more ominous feeling.  I did not want to do much editing on the video itself, but focused more on the sound effects.  I think that the sound is the biggest part of horror films.  The fact that sound has a big part in what we fear is why I was focusing on it more. This project was one of the more enjoyable projects because we were able to create something from scratch and turn it into something more than what it started out as.  It also gave people the power to completely make somethin

My First Post

Hi my name is Eric Lax, and I am currently a junior studying Digital Art.  I am from New Jersey like so many other students.  I came into college no know what I wanted to major in. To me this was completely fine because it gave me the opportunity to see what kind of thing i really was passionate about.  I had originally declared my major to be  education but soon realized it was not something I really wanted to do so I went back to being undecided.  I then went to being a business major but the same thing happened when I saw what classes I would have to take did not excite me so once again I was back to undecided.  It wanted until the start of my second semester at UT that I realized while taking Beginning to Digital Art that I decided I wanted to study Digital Art.  This was all by chance that this happened because i asked a friend a fun class to take and he recommended that intro class and I am so grateful I took it. This past summer I had my first internship working as a graphic d
