• What were your goals for this week for career pathways? – I want to learn and get the hang of Cinema 4D so that if I do want to become an animated, I can understand the basics steps of 3D animation. This BPA Project is helping me explore and understand of if I really do want to go into animation or if there is another career that I want to go into.
• What did you achieve this week in terms of your goals? – I achieved getting Cinema 4D on my computer and had a meeting with my group. I still have some goals that I need to work on and that aren’t completed yet.
• What problems did you have? – I have never used Cinema 4D before so it was all new to me. There were so many buttons and steps to take that I didn’t know where to start. It really did frustrate me that I couldn’t get the hang of it and help out my team more.
• How did you fix those problems? – I just need to get use to the program and need to get the steps done. Also I have worked on others things so that I could get my inspiration up and come back strong to my BPA Project.

• What projects did you work on this week? – What I worked on was my BPA Project. I started working in Cinema 4D by doing different tutorials to get the hang of the program. I have gotten very bored and wasn’t getting much inspiration so I started doing some doodles for my shop that I might want to open someday.

I also did a drawing for Shaylynn
