Ball Bounces

Ball Bounces

Overview


For this project, we had to make three different animations which all included a ball bouncing. One had to bounce up and down, one came from the side, and the third one had to have a surprise ending. Beforehand, we were taught how to make a frame animation on Photoshop, and then we were released to make these three animations.


How We Did It


For this project, we started off by making our background, and our ball. After we had done this, we used the command, option-drag to create multiple copies of our ball. Once we had done this, we moved all of the different balls to a specific area that would make it look like an animation in it's final form. We then started the actual animation, where we started off with our original ball, with all of the others hidden. Then we created a new frame, and hid our original ball, and showed the next copy. We repeated this process until we had gone through all of our frames. There were different things we had to add for the specific animations (such as up & down repeating itself, and the surprise ending). This entire process resulted in our final animations.


Conclusion


Overall, I think these animations were pretty successful, and I enjoyed learning how to make a frame animation. I do think that if I did this again, and spent a little more time on it, I could've made the animation look much cleaner, and less choppy. However, considering this is my first time making a frame animation on Adobe Photoshop, I am very happy with my final products and how everything went as a whole.

My Personality Type

ISTJ My personality type is ISTJ. This means I am introverted, sensing, thinking, and judging. People who are classified as an ISTJ are typically very analytical, reliable, and detail-oriented. They tend to value logical reasoning rather than emotional. They tend to prefer to be alone at times, and keep their thoughts to themselves. These people like to use processes that are proven to work, and also like to rely on their past experiences. Some famous people who share this personality type are George Washington, Queen Elizabeth II, and George H.W. Bush. As a whole, I believe this description of me is almost spot on. I think the quiz is definitely correct when it says I am introverted, and prefer to look at logic when reasoning. I believe I am definitely dependable and detail-oriented, but I think I also have some qualities of perceiving, to go along with judging. For example, I always try to not over schedule things, and I work pretty well under pressure. As a whole, I though t...

Typography Project

Typography Overview In this project, we were approached with the task of creating a project to show different terms of typography by using Adobe Illustrator. Before we started, we were given some basic knowledge about typography. This included different fonts, and parts of letters. We were then able to use some of our prior knowledge about Adobe Illustrator to create a name line to show our newfound knowledge. This project once again I believe was a very good stepping stone in my knowledge and I think it will be very useful in the future. What I learned For this project, we started off by writing our names and sizing it appropriately, and then making three lines to represent the general height of different parts of the letters. We then labeled different parts of our name with words and arrows. Once again, the command "Option-Drag" was very useful, as it helped us copy and paste our labels easily. After we had labeled at least ten parts of our name, we tweaked the l...

ONW Now Sophomore Edition

This was definitely the hardest project we've done this year. Not only was the time schedule very hard to meet, but there was also just a lot of things that had to be done. I definitely learned a lot about all the work that goes in to making a good news show. I learned how much goes on behind the scenes, such as what is done in the control room and with the camera and teleprompter. Personally, I really enjoyed working in the control room for this project. It was definitely a lot of pressure to work completely on the go. I had a huge part in the live recording of the show, which was definitely stressful, but I still enjoyed it. After doing this project, I would say the most important aspect of a successful news show is organization. It is extremely important for everybody to know exactly what their job is so they can execute perfectly. It is also very important to have good communication among your crew. For example, we didn't do a great job at communicating with our anchors...
