十秒小動畫
結束完單畫面敘事工作坊，結合角色、動態、劇情、背景音樂設計的十秒吸睛小動畫之新任務隨之而來。一上課如往常，老師從課程大綱簡介目標開始講起，接著播放了幾部情節簡單很有趣的短動畫作品。（如：https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1w4FJCcZTKU&app=desktop）。接著老師把班級分成三大組，發下三種不同背景的影印背景圖，我們將要使用規定的背景來設計角色的進場、過程及退場。
第一步驟：熟悉場景。在大紙上，重複、快速使用不同媒材畫下背景圖，並且思考前景與後景。第二步驟：抽題目，我到了：這裡熱嗎？我們要根據問題設計劇情與角色。老師要我們比題目寫在大張紙中央，把想法寫下。第三步驟：主角色設計。角色不需要複雜，可以抽象簡單就好，甚至可以是幾何圖型。完成基本構想後，我們開始在A3印有背景圖的紙上，一次又一次的設計動態。老師希望動畫角色可以穿梭前中後景，能夠與場景互動。
來到了西方過家，還沒12月就感受到了濃濃的聖誕節氣氛，金斯頓中心的聖誕市集今天晚上盛大開幕，現場有很大棵的聖誕樹、樂隊演奏還有貴鬆鬆的飾品、食物，等等。

第二週Storytelling 工作坊。
以下是100 words story- An Encounter on a Lonely Road孤獨途中的邂逅：
After trying hundreds and thousands of ways to escape this cold, dim and lifeless undeveloped planet, I finally realise that I am merely a genetically modified Immortal animal or 'A Machine' searching for life and living places for human.
"Are you the only creature here?" I asked.
"Yes. I think you are from the Earth." Said the stranger in front of me.
"Well, I don't want to go back anymore." I said.
There were sincerity and tears in both of our eyes.
"Thanks for being here. We're not alone now. "
這個故事是被之前我畫的一幅小插畫所啟發，我發現要在百字內表達出我想表達的蠻困難的，經過了好多次的修改和刪減。
今天老師跟我們分享了好多篇知名短篇小說的開頭，好的故事開頭能夠快速吸引讀者，讓人想繼續看下去。老師讓我們想一個故事，人物設定要平凡，但會有意想不到的結局，然後寫下故事的開頭。我和另一個同學寫了: “She had not expected that she would be nose touching with an alien.”
第二階段，老師要我們把功課100字的故事用10-15個字濃縮，我抓出了故事主旨，寫了: “I thought I didn’t belong to anyone before I finally find you.”
第三階段，觀察教室任何一人或一事或一物，寫成故事。畢竟英文不是我的母語，再加上本身中文寫作能力就不足，我沒有辦法寫出太深入的內容，所以還是選擇以第一人稱寫下物品獨白。我選擇的是，被主人遺忘在教室桌上的小橡皮擦。
“Where are you, my owner? Where are you? Where are you? I miss you! random people keep using me. They're rudely rubbing me, scratching me, throwing me on the floor and even taking my clothes off.” “Whose eraser is this?” “I don't know. Should we take it home? Somebody doesn't want it, I guess.” people keep discussing. “My dear owner, is that true you don't want me anymore? I can still remember the days I spent time with you and your drawings. You are always gentle and clean. I want to go home, go back to you, to my friends: pens and ruler.”
“Dear owner, it's been a while. I'm so weak and thing. Before turning into eraser dust and disappear in this world, I hope that I can see you again.”
星期六日
假日除了好好休息之外，還畫了聖誕節明信片，我很佩服有些同學除了可以把學校的作品呈現的很好，又同時持續著自己的創作，我應該學習他們，好好的規劃和善用自己的時間。
