My Second Animation

Making My Second Animation
For the past week i have been creating my second animation. It was alt easier than the other one. Because this time i knew what i was doing and didn't have to ask the teacher. I felt really cool. Anyways in many was this project was easier but it was also really difficult at the same time.

The Process
On the first day we learned about arcs and we learned how to make it look right. The arcs worked as a guide to know where I should bounce the ball. It also made my animation look more realistic. No everything moves in a straight like they move in arcs.

What I Learned About Photoshop
I learned a lot of new things about Photoshop this week. I learned that if you take a color or a frame you can tween it with the next frame. For example if you tween frame A and frame B then when you tween it there will be 20 frames between frame A and B. I also learned that you can add your name to any animation so that people can know its your animation.


What will I do differently Next Time?
Next time I will use less balls. In this project I found myself using way too many balls. I made my animation look really choppy. I realized that you only have a few balls to make a good animation. I also will use squat and stretch more. I didn't use a lot of squash and stretch in my animation. I also will use slow in slow out. I didn't use much of the slow in slow out so my animation docent look more realistic. I looks like it is quickly puled down by gravity. A little too quickly.
This is my animation

Fourth Quarter Presentations

Where have I been? Hello! For the past few weeks I have been working on a project for e-Communications. I have been working with a group of four people to create a product that can be useful to the public. Our tea name was Company Incorporated and our product was the magic pack. We created some coupons and graphics and this will be at the bottom of this blog. How well did our Team work together? Our team worked together really well. We got things done on time and sometimes even a little bit early. The team was really good at deciding on things and making sure everything was fair. Everyone did their part. If one person needed help then they could ask for help and receive it almost immediately. We all were very good a solving problems. For example we had a small dispute over the 2D animation and it was resolved really quickly, because he had a good system for soling problems. Majority rules. It worked every time plus we had an odd number so we never ran into any problems regardi...

Final Blog

Our Final Project in e-Comm Our final project this year was a group project. We had to come up with a product, and make up graphics and a website to go along with it. Then once we had done that we had to present our product and the website to other students in second hour e-Comm in a shark tank fashion. This project took an entire quarter. It took so long because we had around one week to do certain parts of the project. We spent the most amount of time working on our graphics for our company and our website. While working on the graphics we ran into some problems. Our team disagreed on the way the website graphics should look, we had to make many comprimises. Along the way I learned that you really need to listen to other peoples ideas, others ideas can really help make the content stronger an more visually appealing. My team got really good feedback, everyone said it was put together very well and it was really interesting. We had to change many things on our website and that is w...

Multiplane Animation

Image
Creating My Animation The first thing we did when creating this animation was create a very long template in photoshop. Then we divided it into four sections. Each section was a different layer and each layer had to be different than the others. This was really difficult for me. The trees were very hard to make and they took a lot of time to copy and paste then and then merge then all onto one layer. I didn't like how the trees turned out. Animating the plane Before we animated we watched videos on how multi plane animation works. We watched videos on how they used to do it back in the day. I think it was really cool but it also took really long. Anyways after I created the base in photoshop I began to animate it in After effects. I did not really learn anything new. But it was really easy to animate. Overall  I think this was not my best project. I do not like the color scheme I think its too dark and gloomy. I also do not like the style. I also messed up the anim...
