Innovative? Or Just Lazy?

Last night was yet another all-nighter for me.  However I sat there early in the morning and I honestly asked myself why I was even awake and if what I was doing on the computer had any justification as to why I was awake and not sleeping.  I couldn’t think of anything.  So having said that I was about to go to bed when I decided to stay up for another couple of minutes so I could fool around with a new program I recently received. 

For those who do not know I am also an animator with a corporate sponsorship.  I actually make money as my job making animations.  So it was easy to say a new updated animation program was giving me all kinds of geek spasms.  I truly am a tech geek at heart.  As I was trying out the software I happened to notice that the program had quite a few keyboard shortcuts.  Doing what I do, I thought that it would be cool to code Denise with the keyboard shortcuts on my new animation program.  I am severely lacking any assistance when it comes to getting people to help me with my animation so I thought it would be amusing to get her to help me.

This clearly started out as something that I did not take very serious.  There were so many keyboard shortcuts I knew that I was not going to code them all.  In fact when I started to code Denise with them I actually thought I was just prolonging going to bed and that I was wasting my time.  Luckily for whatever reason I hung in there and coded her with a few of the major keyboard shortcuts that could prove beneficial to me when I am working with my animation program.  Before I knew it I had coded several functions that Denise could help me with.

After that I launched Denise and launched the animation software.  Wouldn’t you know it?  It worked.  I thought “Wow, Denise really can help me out with my job in a practical way.”  I made a video showing just a few of the results.
