The tablet is made by "Wacom", which is a trademark brand that specializes in professional animation and graphic design. I am really excited about learning how to use it and making my drawing with it. However, I have come across some problems which have to be fixed before I start my animation.
Here is the tablet. It's awesome.
Now the problems:
There is a cable that I am supposed to plug into my computer, which enables the tablet to act as a second monitor. My problem is that the end of the cable that plugs into my computer is a male HDMI, and my computer only has USB ports.
I have searched the internet for an adapter, but due to a lack of photos in most cases, I am unsure if the adapters I have seen are precisely what I need.
Most adapters are made for smartphones, and have a male Micro USB on one end, and the female HDMI on the other. This is not what I need, as my computer doesn't have a Micro USB as much as it doesn't have an HDMI.
This is what I need:
This is what I've found:
My second problem is that I need to have the footage of the girls performing the choreography in order to start animating, and, due to the theatre space being occupied at all times, it has been hard to find a time in which all 5 of us (3 dancers, theatre, me) are free.
However, I have found a solution to this problem!
I will not film in the theatre. Instead, I will film in the Dance Studio in ELM.
This will work better in many ways; first of all, the girls gave been practicing the choreography there, so they will be used to the space. Secondly, the space is bigger and better lit (daylight). As well as this, the studio, as mentioned before, is free more often than the theatre.
All this put together makes the theatre completely inferior to ELM, and makes me wonder why I didn't plan to film the girls in the studio in the first place.
