Name animation

So far in e9 I have had the privilege to go through three strands: video, graphic design, and animation. All three of these strands have been a good learning experience. I'm leaning towards video and graphic design for the next year and junior year I hope to focus mainly on journalism.  I'm  am really enjoying e-communication and I am defiantly planning on staying in the program.

10 words

10 Words
For this10 word project we had to come up with 10 words that describe us and our personality's. Instead of using a frame timeline I used a video timeline and make the words fly into the background picture. I would have to say that the video timeline was more difficult because we had to mess with every word in the picture instead of just copying frames. I thought that the timing was the most difficult in this project because if one word was timed wrong it practically messed up the whole project, but I stayed calm and fixed the problem by asking Mr.Olsen and my peers next to me. Overall I liked this project because it wasn't very stressful. I would defiantly recommend this project to a friend

Smile

For this project I enjoyed the whole procedure very much! I thought this was really fun because I was used to using the new tools and I could control it more. I would deeply suggest a friend to do something like this. I learned that you need to make many slides for the animation to look realistic. Also I leaned the squash and stretch method which really works!

Pink ball

For this project I had a task where I had to make a ball bounce up and down. Overall I thought this project was exciting and frustrating but once got the hang of it and used using new tools in photoshop it turned out pretty well. The only thing I would have changed was setting a background color so it doesn't look like a random ball bouncing up and down.
