Assignment
Use the techniques shown in class this week to animate your existing project or create a new drawn, colored and composited illustration with the title of "tiny town". The new project should be same as the previous, 5" x 5" inches, then resized for the animation.
Your assignment is to animate your composited items and tell a little animated story.
- Illustrations should be drawn, prepped and colored separately then composited as groups or smart objects within Photoshop.
- Use the video from class and the additional video tutorials posted above.
- Resize you files to 800px or 600px square if you want to publish to animated gif.
- Create a file with at least 10 seconds of animation, or several files that add up to 10 seconds of animation.
- Use the Timeline panel (video animation or frame animation mode) to create your animation.
Upload your source file (the .psd) to Google as well as all animated gif or video files, please.
