Character Development


Green Screen Portrait
Hello again, so this week and for 2 more weeks we have anew project called"Your Animation".for this weeks blog we have to write about what kind of person we are. So I would define my self as funny, crazy, loyal, caring, happy, honest, and amazing. We also have to write about what humorous or relatable imperfections that I do. Every night when I go to bed even if its cold like 60 degrees that night I NEED the fan on full blast or on high or else I cant sleep if its not that way.
My GIF

Some character traits that I plan to make or exaggerate are making myself looking like I'm dancing really amazing (which of course I will be...winky face) for about 5 seconds then have a really cool, awesome back round in my GIF animation to cause interest to the viewer. It will also make them want to tell others about my GIF animation that we are all working on as a class.
Cut-Out Front Portrait

The step-by-step process of creating a GIF would be 1.) Taking a picture of yourself with your arms spread out as shown above. 2.) Would be to cut yourself out in photoshop with the "Quick Selection Tool" so that there is no more green screen in the back. 3.)Starting the animation. Add a couple of frames, use the move tool to move your character to where you want. 4.)Puppet warp! Each time you make a change with puppet warp, you need to make a different layer or else that change will apply to each frame. Maybe try labeling all your layers that you make so its less confusing. 5.)Now pick any background in your finder windows and drag it from finder to photoshop and then easily move it to fit the frame.
