As you study, jot down items that you need to memorize and carry the list with you throughout the day. Review this material when you are caught standing in line or with time to spare between classes. Do not re-read your textbook; you have already done it once and to do so again would overload you. Review sections you have highlighted(underlined), any notes you made in the margins, formulae, definitions and chapter summaries. Begin your studies with the material from the first class and move forward in chronological order, spending only small amounts of time in low priority areas and more time in higher priority areas. This review will give you a stronger basis from which to master the more important material when you get to it. If you choose to study in chronological order, be careful to pace yourself so that you do not leave a critical study part to do the night before the exam Check for anything you might have missed.

SUMMARY: Stay on the plan. Memorize major concepts. Selectively review your texts. Study in a chronological order. Monitor the work you have done.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can use any camera to film clay animation, but you'll need the right software to put all of the individual shots together. Your computer might come preloaded with options Mac users will have iMovie and PC users will have Quicktime. But you can also download software like Picasa. It might take some experimenting to see which you like best. Plastilina clay is made by a company called Van Aken, and it's the same type that was used in the first clay animation videos. It's wax based, so it melts down quite easily if you put it over a double boiler. You can find it at most hobby, craft, and toy stores. To set up a double boiler, fill one saucepot about halfway with water. Place that pot on your stovetop. Then place another pot - either the same size or slightly smaller so it fits snugly - on top of the first pot. Place the clay you want to mix in the top pot, and turn the burner on. As the water in the lower pot boils, it will heat up your clay to make it moldable. Polymer clay has plastic in it, which makes it more durable than Plastilina clay. If you're working on a longer project, a polymer clay like Sculpey is your best bet, because your figures will hold their shape longer. Once you've decided which clay to use, it's time to build your figures. Make sure you build every single figure you need. That includes all of your characters and any accessories or sets you want to be made from clay. It might be helpful to begin by building a simple wireframe for each character. Use wire to shape the core of the body and arms and legs. If you're making a non-human form, use the wire to form the basic shape of the object. Once you have a wireframe, press clay onto the frame. You'll have to form things like feet, hands, fingers, toes, or other details completely from clay. If you're just beginning in clay animation, stick to simple figures. They'll be easier to create and manipulate. And keep in mind that some of the most popular clay animations use super simple figures think of Gumby! If you're not building your sets from clay, you'll need to either gather or construct those. Legos or other building toys are a great option for those sets. You might also need to create a background, depending on your story. Drawings on construction paper are a great way to create those backgrounds. For example, if your story is about a dog and its owner in a park, you'll need a set of trees, maybe a pond, and possibly some buildings in the background. You can build the trees out of building blocks, and the pond and buildings out of construction paper. If you set up your scene near a wall, you can tape your background to it. Make sure you have all of your sets built before you begin filming. It will cut down on your production time.
Summary: Get movie software to edit your film. Use Plastilina clay if you want to combine colors. Use polymer clay if you want your figures to maintain their shape for a while. Build your figures. Gather or build additional sets.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A short spindle should be used due to the downward pressure that will be applied, so that it does not bend or break. A top handle that has another bowl carved out of it will be held in your left hand for stability. A bow with the string wrapped once around the spindle will be used to do the back and forth motions. A string. A boot's shoelace works very well for this application, due to the standard sizes being very long. The setup should not differ very much from the one in this image. Wrap the string around the spindle once. Tie the ends of the shoelace to the ends of the bow. Place the spindle on the piece of wood which you will make the ember on, and place a piece of small wood on top of the spindle for stabilization.

SUMMARY:
Collect the equipment you will need for the Bow Drill: Set up the Bow Drill. Move the bow back and forth while pushing downward on the spindle to create friction and make an ember.
