During week 13, we were tasked in teams to animate a word acting out the action that it says. For the task I was paired with James.
To create this small animation, we used hand drawn cut-outs and positioned them underneath a camera. I drew the different letters and actions of the "i" using a H.B pencil whitest often showing and asking James about desired designs and designs I had made. I also gave the "i" an eye to allow it to have a sense of emotion.
James then volunteered to do the positioning and editing because most of the drawings I made were not used in the final creation. Firstly, James attempted to use adobe-Fireworks to make the animation, however the blog website I use did not allow the GIF to be shown due to the large file size and therefore used Adobe-Animate to create the GIF.
In order to do this, James lowered the size of each of the images and reduced the amount of time each image would appear on screen.
Unlike other animations on my blog, this animation did not need to be tracked because all the frames were already created after taking the images and only needed to be placed in order.
(Animation that was created can be seen below, sorry for the flash effect in the frames)
Over all I believe that we did well on this assignment because me and James worked well together in a group with good co-ordination to produce our final image. However, if I could re-do this assignment I would re-take the images for the GIF to get rid of the flashing effect of the lighting and to increase the number of frames to make it move more smoothly.
