Button Animation

I worked with Celeste to create a gif displaying a button bouncing across the page. The first try, I accidentally messed up the focus, so I had to reshoot everything with the correct settings. In photoshop, I changed the brightness and the contrast to make a more visually appealing display. I feel like our frames turned out relatively smooth and the image is clear. I wish we could have got it right on the first time, but next time we can do it right.

New to Animation

Hello, my name is Jeiah. My favorite aspects of Graphic Design and animation is the ability to bring a character or idea to life through visual representation. In the past, I've really enjoyed creating my own original designs, such as the "Crazy Character" project we did last year in beginning Graphic Design. I made a flying dragon out of an assortment of images of different tools. I've been inspired by too many things to name, especially varying character designs in shows, visual novels, video games, and other blogs/websites. I hope to be able  to bring my own characters to life through animations and sketches throughout this year.
