Photoshop Bounce

In this assignment I had to make a ball bounce across the screen. What I first did was make the ball in photoshop where I made it look 3D. In order to make it move I had to create keyframes in each of the arcs of the ball, I found making the frames easy but getting them to flow was very difficult. I had to make the ball curve in every single bounce and every time it hit the ground i had to squash the ball to make it look like it was bouncing. The timing was probably the hardest to do because if the timing was off by one frame it completely messed up the flow of it. We also made small animations in photoshop but it seemed smaller compared to the whole of photoshop. But in Adobe After Effects it was more focused on and more of the main point of the program. this was very fun and I can't wait to do more.

Color-wheel Project

During the color-wheel project i used a new program called adobe illustrator. I found it to be a lot like photoshop except for a difference in some of the tools. Some of the tools I did use in Illustrator was the shape tool in order to make all of the shapes, I also used the text tool so that I could label the colors, and I used the coloring tool so that it would actually look like a color-wheel. It was very helpful that Illustrator had guides to help me line up the shapes on the wheel. It was fun to use something new and I enjoyed doing it too.
