Animations
We will be creating two types of animations. 1. Cartoon animations and 2. Animated banners for web/multimedia content.
Using the example I have shown in class, create 5 simple cartoon animations. These can be stick man animations, cartoon characters, moving objects. Remember you must create your first frame drawing and save it in a new folder. For each new motion frame, you create the motion and save the new file as a jpg file(ex. stickman1, stickman2.....) When your frames are completed you will open them in animation shop to create you final animation.
For the animated banners you will create a banner with several frames (ex. a car advertisement) Again for each change in the banner content you will save the new file as a jpeg. When you have completed the frames you open them in animation shop and apply necessary transitions. You must complete 5 of this style animation also. Each banner must contain at least 5 image/text changes.
Final Animation Project. For your final project you will create a 20-30 second cartoon including sound effects, speech, background music, Titles and final credits. We will be using Pinnacle software to create the animated cartoon. For this project you may work with a group of up to 4. Each group member must take an active role in creating the cartoon and the final credits must reflect each members role.
