I've created this blog for my Radio-Television-Film class entitled "Computer Animation & 3-D Modeling." I'll be using the software application Maya for the first time ever, though by the end of the semester, I should be a pro at it.
For this first post, I'm to introduce myself so that my instructor and classmates can identify my blog as mine own.
My name is Edmarc Hedrick, I'm a 4th year at the University of Texas at Austin studying English and Radio-Television-Film. I have a minor in journalism and am working towards minors in Mathematics and Marketing as well (should my schedule for my last two semesters allow for it). I'm interested in too many things and think of myself as a very well-rounded individual in terms of education. In the end, I want to do marketing in tech - I want to return to Silicon Valley!
I like to run and I like to eat. I love playing board games as I am a highly competitive person. Scattegories is my favorite; I hardly ever lose at it. I like listening to music and I like going to shows as well (so long as I have the funds to attend).
I have a strange fascination with Scandinavia. Music, film, culture, people. Music includes; Familjen, ceo, El Perro del Mar, Montt Mardie, The Tough Alliance, Jens Lekman, Johnossi, Jose Gonzalez, Little Dragon, Lykke Li, Moneybrother, etc, etc.
I'm also fascinated by electronic/house/techno/dubstep, but listen to anything and everything. If you have any recommendations, send me a comment and I'll check them out.
So I got off tangent a little. My subsequent posts won't be like this. I'll be putting up my work. I'm super stoked about learning this program and then sharing it with you all.
Cheers!

EDIT (8/31)
I believe I was supposed to also post up links to my old work. Well, to be honest, I don't have any film work to show off. I do, though, have some of my photography to show. A lot of the newer ones on my flickr are mobile photos I took while in the Bay Area this summer so to find the gems, you have to look through my older photos. I also used to regularly update my tumblr with advertisements that I really liked. Maybe I'll get that going again sometime soon!
