My Final Animation Project

This video created by April Duncan and Myself, simply to spread awareness about teen pregnancy that we both have witnessed in and outside of school. I learned that there is a lot of work that goes into creating typography's. One challenge that we came across was piecing both of our work together and having it flow properly. I usually work with April so during our days on this project our team work was great. I feel that our animation was nice and simple, here take a look below:

Stick Figure on moving background

In this assignment we were told to create a stick figure on a mountain like background, it also was supposed to move the same way that our pivot animations did. This project was easy but sometimes frustrating because you have to nail the details and make everything flow. Overall, it was not so bad and my animation came out good.

My "Windows Movie Maker" movie

Learning Reflection 3/17
During this project I have learned a lot of different techniques that help to create pivot movies. I enjoyed the Windows Movie Maker activity because it was fast and interesting. One big thing that I have learned throughout this entire project is that, putting together a pivot is not as difficult as it make look, but you must have patience in order to receive the best results.

WMM 3/13

In this marking period we used WMM and it was cool, because you got a chance to create your own type of movie as if it were real. This project did not take long because we used Pivot prior to creating the movie so all that we had to do was basically put the pieces together. I also got a chance to review my classmates movies and they were interesting and entertaining.

1st Pivot Animation

This has been my first Pivot Animation that I've worked on. I actually enjoyed it, the timing of the project was good also, because it did not take too long to complete and it was exciting.

Hour of Code-12/13

This week we learned how to code a web site during the "Hour of Code" week. I found this lesson to be interesting because of one example, which was basically set up as a game, where you have to tell the machine what to do. This makes me wonder what is behind some websites and animated sites.

Reflections-Nov 18th

Last week in web design we learned how to photo shop a picture and ways of posting them on our wikispaces. We also learned how to fix up pictures, such as fading them sizing them and cropping them before editing the appearance. This is a very good skill to have for those interested in becoming web designers in the near future and those interested in starting their own website(s).
