Line 1:
I am slightly far beyond more than two-hundred percent sure that I am honest when I say this, because I clearly have no idea what I am doing with myself, and I still
I
About a month or so, maybe about 2 months ago, I chose to get myself enrolled in a technical high school that has an animation class installed in the interior of the school. For that, my friends and I have made the choice of taking that class. And, during my experience with the school, I loved it. I loved it all, the classes are great, and I have learned. I have learned like, a lot, and I find the classes very enjoyable for someone quite like my age. Surprisingly enough, if I liked the classes, then it appears that my friends liked them too.
During that day, it was my first time being in the animation class, and when my classmates and I took our seats, the professor walked in, and he looked like he
After listening to the
Everyone got busy and got on their computers, with the exception of me. All I did was just sit there, like I had no clue of what I am supposed to do. That was until someone who decided to help me had become my friend after my clueless, puzzled self just sat there for at least 30 seconds, darting my head from left to right at the other classmates as they got onto the computers.
This
Nathan motioned me to sit down in a chair that was in front of the other one with him, and the two of us began a conversation. The first person out of the two of us was Nathan, since I am rather quiet.
With a friendly smile, he nudged me with his shoulder playfully while winking.
I just sat there, quivering slightly the whole time. Nathan raised a brow at me like I was some lunatic or something. His smile was gone, and he just asked me what was wrong. Now, if I
Acting like I have no clue what it is, I turned around to look at the voice actors of whoever they are voicing in the animation. By looking at the male voice actor, he was shorter and younger, and the female voice actor was taller and older.
I suddenly had the clue, and I figured out what the answer to the riddle was after at least, well, 4 minutes of struggling to solve the riddle, it came to me. Remember Nick Jr.? The answer to the question is obvious to you, but
When I was little, I have been watching Nick Jr. before my teenage years had came to me. One of those very shows I have watched was Max & Ruby, and in fact, this sunshine show is about two bunnies that go around spreading love and kindness with each other.
Well, I suppose that you think that Max & Ruby is not the case during this scenario, but trust and believe, it is. And in retrospect, Nathan made an episode of Max & Ruby of his very own, which
Answering the riddle, I said,
Logging on the computer, I started to browse, and every now and then, I turned my head to see Nathan, drawing, animating, composing the background music, and using the voice actors to narrate Max Bunny and Ruby Bunny. And by looking at Nathan, he looked like he was having fun with making the episode. Wait, no. Having fun is a little bit of an understatement. He looked as if he was having a blast. While I looked at both him, and the voice actors whose names I have forgotten, I turned my head back to the computer and continued to browse, and watch YouTube videos, since I had nothing else to do.
After approximately 3 hours of browsing the internet, I figured that if was time for me to log off of the computer and check on Nathan. Proceeding to do so and so, I stood up, and checked on Nathan. The voice actors stopped narrating Max Bunny and Ruby Bunny, and Nathan was done with the animation.
The lights suddenly turned off, but the only things that remained activated were a few lamps. Some generic lamps, and some unique lamps, like lava lamps and LED light lamps.
The dull, generic lamps flickered repeatedly, as if they were to die off any minute now. But, impressively enough, they were still alive and kicking. I made my move to check out what kind of episode of Max & Ruby that Nathan had made. I got onto the computer that he had used, and being smart, I made sure that I
As soon as I got onto the system that Nathan uses for animating as assigned by the professor, just like everyone else uses, I saw a text on the screen, of what appeared to be what I was looking for. On the top-center of the screen, read
No characters were present at the time, so I got bored, and I got off of the computer. Luckily for me, at least I found what I was looking for. I stood up, and I made my way out of the room. I opened the door, stepped foot outside the room, and slowly closed the door behind myself.
Well, I
When I got out of the room, I suddenly noticed Nathan and the voice actors in a private chat in the
Here was what I thought I heard:
[Nathan]:
[Male Voice Actor]:
[Female Voice Actor]:
This was all I could remember what they said in their conversation. When I heard something about Max screaming while being devoured, and Ruby becoming, well, downright insane, curiosity got the better of me, and I was curious as curious can ever reach the fullest extent of curiosity can ever be, probably deeper than the depths of space. That was how curious I was. And this was when I had to ask the professor if we could watch
The time I was able to come out from my hiding place, and look for the professor was when Nathan and the voice actors left the classroom to do Lord-knows-what else they will do now.
I snuck out of the classroom, and I made my way down a hallway, and proceeded to search for the professor. As I walked, and walked, I looked left and right around the studentless hallways, and the first thing that came to mind was trying the conference room. As soon as I got there, the results were horrid. There was nobody present. However, I corrected myself when I thought in my head that the professor
As the professor opened the door, he saw me jabbing both index fingers together like jackhammers having each of their own seizures.
I made my way down the hallway to find Nathan, but I
Fortunately, it had worked as soon as I found him. He was in the back room of the
As soon as I got there, the professor was still sitting on the sofa as he was casually. I knocked on the door, but the professor just looked at me through the glass, and motioned me to walk inside.
Doing what I was told by my wonderful gentleman of a professor, I handed the case over to him, and he told me to follow him back to his classroom. Once we got there, he turned on his EPSON interactive whiteboard, and while he was getting everything set, I pulled a black swivel chair over in front of the EPSON board, and I planted myself on the seat.
Over to my left, was the professor at his desk, placing the disc into his
"rubys_afternoon_snack.avi"
Once he did, the file automatically fullscreened itself and went into Windows Movie Maker, showing a black screen for a second before revealing the opening sequence of Max & Ruby.
Line 97:
My professor was rather puzzled, to make a long story short, about his reaction, the video was 8 minutes long, about as long as a normal Max & Ruby episode, because to say this, one episode of Max & Ruby is 8 minutes long.
However, as soon as the intro ended where Max and his sister waved at the camera from the window, as the children in the background said the title and giggled, they just stayed there for a moment before Ruby slowly moved her irises over to Max, and her eyes locked onto
In the background, was Ruby exclaiming the title of the episode in her trademark sweet voice, like the way
It began with Ruby making what appeared to be a tea party with her dolls, and as she sat them down individually in each of their own chairs, she made her way over to a shelf to pick up some plastic tea cups and a teapot, all of them colored in pink, with a white shape pattern all painted on each and every one of them. Ruby placed the tea cups on small, pink plastic plates, and set them individually in front of the dolls that were sitting in the chairs. She was humming, pouring imaginary tea into the fake tea cups using the plastic teapot.
Line 111:
He eventually got bored, and went upstairs to check on Ruby. Max peered through the door, before slowly opening it and stepped foot into her room, unnoticed. He had his trademark smug expression, and proceeds to make a move.
He made his way over to the table, before proceeding to vandalize the tea party, such as taking off Curly
Max giggled quietly, before sneaking out of
Max giggles again, before running over to
The camera would pan over to Ruby, now in the hallway, looking for Max.
The screen zoomed in on
Once there, he was greeted with his sister, who watched him walk over to the dining room table, and sit down. When Max sat down, Ruby sat in front of Max, picked up her sandwich, and took her first bite. Max looked at Ruby, and the next thing he knew when he arrived to the dining room was Ruby was looking at him funny.
Max tilted his head slightly at his sister, and since he was usually nonverbal, he took his first bites of his sandwich. Ruby started to speak to her brother, still in the sweet, and calm way she talks to other bunnies.
Max, despite the fact that he was an infant, responds to his sister with his usual one-or-two-worded dialogue.
Ruby clarifies, now lecturing Max in the same voice she uses whenever she lectures Max.
The last four minutes play out with Max going into the living room to play with his toys. And while he was, the camera pans over to Ruby, now with the same sinister expression she had on her face, locking her eyes onto her
He approached the door to
Max slowly approaches his sister, and when he got close enough, he tugged on her skirt, wondering if
The way Ruby was looking at Max was just...wrong. Except that her smile had already worsened, and her ears were drooping down the sides of her head.
Max, now developing an non-irrational fear of his sister, he turned his back and he ran over to the door. He opened the door, and stepped out. When he looked back into the bedroom, Ruby was charging at him, letting out a loud scream.
He slams the door to his
The screen cuts to show Max, with an expression on his face with multiple feelings. He appeared to be confused, delirious, and at the same time, he was fearing for his life. He was alert, and he was looking left and right for a place to hide.
The screen cuts to a first-person view of Max under the sofa for a brief moment. Outside of the sofa, was Ruby, searching around for Max, but her full body
When Ruby was going to leave the house as I have said before, Max let out a sigh of relief when his sister planning of going to the garden. Ruby stopped dead in her tracks, and she immediately shot her head back. She slowly turns around, and she walks over to the sofa in the slowest way possible.
As Ruby made a turn, the camera follows her as she makes her way over to the sofa. And when she made her way there, she looked under the sofa, and found her said brother, hiding under the darkness of the sofa itself.
Ruby slowly reaches her arm out to Max, and as Max did the same, Ruby pulled him out from under the sofa. Ruby, now looking Max in the eye with a giant grin on her face. And this part...was completely messed up.
Distorted music started trailing in the background, and Ruby started to open her mouth.
The distorted music and the screeching faded out, as Ruby made her way upstairs, and went down the hallway to her bedroom. She sighed, and she would enter her bedroom, and slammed the door shut, concluding the episode. The closing circle of would enshroud the episode into a black screen before a gunshot was heard, and cutting to the ending credits of the episode. After the first few seconds of the credits played out, my professor paused it, and he would stay silent for a moment, before looking right at me. I was in a complete panic attack. All I did was sit there, and shiver, and cry. I did not speak. I did not reply to anything my professor said. I did nothing else but do the following.
I did not know what was going on, but I am sure of it that Nathan is receiving the lecture of his life. Just a few minutes later, the professor walked in the classroom, dragging Nathan by the arm in a way that would look like his arm would pop right out of his socket, but thankfully, there were popped bones. The professor furiously dragged Nathan into the animation room, and shut the door. And behind that door, I could hear the professor yelling at the top of his voice at Nathan, in the angriest way possible.
Afterwards, I have stopped talking to him for at least a good few months, given the fact that he is the biggest weirdo I have ever met as a friend. I have explained to the professor that I have absolutely no clue how to animate, and as a response, he worked with me and helped me with my animation. It was poorly designed, but he still thinks
I
As for me, I kept on getting As and Bs in my classes for doing what I was assigned. Nathan, on the other hand, was not. He just kept failing, and failing, and failing. I know you might think I am a soft kid, but I sense that he might have some sort of mental disorder or whatever he has. On the bus rides home from now on during this semester, Nathan
As the days keep coming and coming,
The very last time I have ever seen my former friend, was that he was forlornly sitting outside the front of the school, and waiting for his parents to pick him up. As I said before, this guy was a complete weirdo, and I hope for the best for him, and the best kind of help he could get. I hope I never meet up with this student again, because of the way he took his unenrollment from the animation class.
Since then, I have learned a ton about animating, and I
As I kept on animating, and animating, I reached the point where I had impressed my parents because of how I have been improving. Animation is really hard to learn, but somehow, I have gotten that A for my effort and my participance.
Despite my childhood was ruined by my
If you were wondering how long it took me to type up this whole post, I would say that I took about 7 weeks to fill this out. And if any of you have questions, just ask me. For I will answer them as soon as I can, and I happily will. Now, heed these last words of this post when you have read this post until the very end. I have made this account dedicated for the purpose of being informational. If you have any questions, I am going to be all-ears for you, and
