 Actually, here's one last thing from school--a character design from my Flash animation class. Our final project in that class was to make a short animation about someone who gets abducted by aliens. For my alien design, I wanted something really otherworldly and definitely not carbon-based, and also something that would be fun to animate in Flash with a lot of moving parts (for example, I used plenty of looping animation for the head components).

I no longer have the actual animation, but honestly it wasn't really something worth showing off, in my opinion. The gist of the plot was that a businessman is commuting down the highway in his gas-guzzling car, and he gets abducted by an alien who tries to preach environmentalism to him. The guy doesn't want to hear it and walks out, and when he shows up at the office, he explains in a very jaded and exasperated tone that he's late because he was abducted by aliens. There are some messages in there.

Part of the class was learning how to insert voice acting into an animation, but the students had to do their own voice acting, so I'm kind of glad the video no longer exists because it means I don't have to share my super cringey attempts at voice acting.
