This is an animation exercises that I have done in the class. I liked how fast the character moving fast and trying to help his friend not to burn. I would love to extend this animation and make it as full story.







Planning

I looked at the couple of animations on youtube to give me some ideas on what to put on my animation.
Then I decided to make some to modle to create my characters for the animations. 
I connected Hue web camera and then I have used I motion to create my animation. I chose the sound of the video from youtube and I used Garage Band to edit my audio file.
I used I movie to put my video together and add tittle and credit.
It was easy for me to use all the equipment and the softwares when I was doing my animation.







Different animations. 

Animation 1

 rookie secret agent is faced with a problem seldom covered in basic training: what to do when a curious pigeon gets trapped inside your multi-million dollar, government-issued nuclear.
 I like how the pigeon was getting angry and I like the story its interesting. I would definitely love to make a similar story. 














Animation 2

This is an educational animation lesson for those who aren't aware that Oxygen can go wrong when trying to interact with his other elementary Kin...
I like this animation because it's a fun way to deliver important message like this across the worls.
I would love to make a similar animation.














Animation3

This animation is different than the others I have seen because It's kind of unique and touching.
I like the music in the background. I would like to make a similar animation or make a second part story of it.

Fight for fun




This was my first Plan for my 20 second animation.

This is Pokemon Animated Gif where Pikachu slaps his twin brother.



















During my research I was planning to make the Pokemon Twin dance while they slap each other and  the song that im gonna add to my animation is gonna be called THE HARLEM SHAKE. I got it of YOUTUBE, I am going to convert the video into audio using NO1 Video Convertor

the need Garage Band to edit

My final decision was to create my own I south park and make them fight.


This is a still picture of I South Park that Im going to animated.
I have created my own I south character from http://www.sp-studio.de/
I will animate the characters to make them fight each other.













This is a background that im gonna use for the module.











First I had to do my research on which character to choose in order to complete my animation sequence. Then I decided to create my own character. My plan was going well and  have developed my plans to achieve my target. My first plan was to make a different characters to do the harlem shake then I thought I could have change to a better Idea so I came up with Fight For Fun. So I used I stop motion to create my animation then I used I movie to edit my movie. I had to do more research to decide what modules to use for my 30 second animations. after deciding to use I south park as my modules I felt more confidant to start the animation. 

  
I used Grage Band to edit my audio file. I have download the audio file from youtube. 

If I had to do  this project again I would have extend the film more and add more stories into it.














This is how it turned while I was using I stop motion. I set up the camera so I can see my image framed with the camera. Then I used the red button to capture the pictures. Then I pressed the play button to play the pictures I took as a an animation video and to make sure there was no errors. I finished it as a file- export and I have exported it as a DV file. From I stop motion I exported it as DV file. I felt pretty comfortable using I motion software.




Then I went to I movie, I went on file then export movie and I have started editing my movie by adding credits and titles into it. Then I have saved my work and took my work to Garage Band to add an audio to it.  It was easy to use I movie to edit my video. 




I opened Garage Band I uploaded my video ant the audio that I have uploaded from youtube. Then I have trimmed the audio file to the size of the video. I have exported it from I movie to Garage3 band as M4V file. I had to editi my sound on Garage band so its the same length as the video and it wasn't that easy to use it, It took me time to understand on how to trim and export files.
