3 Problems We Might Have In Our Animation & Solutions

The problems that we might face in our animation is:

1. The special effects on the animation, for example try to move the clouds so the audience could think the clouds are moving
2. Putting our voice for the dialogue when the character is speaking our voice is heard
3. Creating the characters on the animation

The solutions to this problems:

1. Ask for help
2. Take the time and make sure we add all the details that it needs
3. Like garage band to record our voice and convert them into the right format

Purpose and Benefits of Storyboarding 5 Things

Purpose of Storyboarding is....

1). Will help you on planning your animation step by step or shot by shot

2). It will help see problems in between the pictures

3). You can also get help by another person on your storyboard to get more ideas

4). You can change the storyboard instead of changing the final product

5). Its less time consuming to to the storyboard rather than the animation

What Would I Do For The Major Animation Project?

What I would do for this major animation project..for Animation class is.....animate a nascar race where they is a really close drag race, but the two drivers that you think they have the possibilities to win..they will crash involving with other cars....The last place driver will try to avoid this traffic and win...this is what I'm going to try to animate for this major animation project.

3 Things I Learned Something New & 3 Things To Apply in my Animation

3 Things I Learned Something New:

• I learned how to change the strength (from ease) to make the animator go slow to faster
• Also learned that in Type (from ease options) you click Runtime and go to File, go to Publish Preview and Default (HTML) and it could be in the website so, that people can move the animator or play around with it
• How to make the animation to more realistic...by making it jump and go to the ground as it kicks

3 Thing I Am Going To Apply In My Animation:

• I am going to apply by making my ninja jump and make it land to the ground while he is making a kicking attack
• Apply the strength (from ease)
• Make it go slower or faster by going to Properties, in Ease section (Type) and select maybe Simple Fast or Simple Faster or Simple Medium...etc.

What I Learned Today

Today I learned that if you cannot bent one of the body parts...just let go of the mouse and click again in the same spot or some other joint. Also, it doesn't need to be a story on your animation it could be random. Also, when you are putting the bones in the figure you need to connected to a joint or else it wont work...and the little symbol when you get bone in your toolbox..it tells you if it can connect or cannot connect. The last thing I learned is, be creative on this type of doing this animation and it doesn't need to be perfect.

New Seating Chart New Fresh Start

This new arrangement of the seating...could benefit me by be more independently on my work, try to get more help from the teacher, less more talk and more working, get a good and better grade by my own work. Also, try to be more talkative with other people and try to co-operate by helping each other. Last thing, is just try to do my best this 3rd 6 weeks.

In What Way Would I Add Sound In A Animation

The way I would improve my GOAL!! animation I would put sound like a kicking sound when he hits the soccer ball, in Frame 1...and the other sound i would put is when ball is going to goal i would put a sound that is a super wind in Frame 7-19....the last thing i would put in a sound is the crowd when he makes the goal..the sound will be like a cheer of the people with someone screaming goooal!! in Frame 19... oh and put other sound that when the ball goes in..i would put a sound of a net in Frame 18....this is the way i would try to improve this animation.

How to create a mask-masked in FLASH

1). First, is you need to put a text or an object you want to put on the stage (in your layer change

it to text or object masked)

2). Second, is you need to go to modify, click on timeline, and click on layer properties

3). Next, in TYPE section you change it to mask....and make sure to LOCK it.

4). Next, add a new layer this time you name it SHAPE mask

5). You will do the same thing...from step 2

6). But, you are going to click on masked this time...and LOCK it also

7). You insert a motion tween on the mask layer..by inserting a key frame 1 you want to select and go to Insert and add a Motion Tween

8). Make sure is in frame 1...the shape you made on mask layer.....move it across the text or object and you will create a motion tween

9). When your done you test movie and your done

The differences of creating the rim (wheel) and the bug

The difference of bug and rim (wheel) is:

1). The rim (wheel) was a motion tween inside the movie clip (MC), but the bug was a frame by frame animation

2). The rim (wheel) was created already and the bug we needed to created

3). In the bug animation, had a great number of layouts in our animation

4). The rim (wheel) animation needed to be rotating clock wise (CW), but the bug animation could be anything you wanted to move

5). Wheel animation you need to break apart the rim by doing shift+clicking the parts

6). You needed to create the body parts of the bug

How I made the wheel to a spinner wheel?

1). Open the file it is instructed to open

2). Next, you need to zoom in about 800%

3). Need to break apart the car by selecting it and go to modify and click break apart

4). Need to select all the parts of the rim by holding shift and click the parts of the rims

5). Next, when your done selecting the part you need to drag out the rim

6). When you did that you convert that rim to a symbol

7). But make sure that your symbol into a movie clip, and put MC (movie clip) on your name

8). Next on your library, double click your MC_wheel

9). Then in your screen your MC_wheel goes small

10). Next, you go to zoom options and click show all it will make MC_wheel big

11). Select your symbol, go to your modify and click convert to a symbol

12). Next you need to convert your symbol to a motion tween by going to Insert and click Motion Tween

13). When your done converting it to a motion tween , drag your playhead to 50

14). Next click your playhead to the beginning that is 1

15). In your properties you look for Rotation section

16). In the Rotation section...go to Rotate and change it to 4 times

17). But make sure that in Direction is CW (clockwise)

18). Your done! but don't forget to customize your rim and just have fun!

What Am I going to do in my animation...

In my animation it will be about a baseball game...bottom from the ninth inning...2 outs and 1 last chance to win the World Series...New York Yankees Alex Rodriguez is up for batting....the pitcher Josh Beckett from the Boston Red Sox. The Boston Red Sox has 7 runs and New York Yankees are down by 1 run. Derek Jeter is in 3rd base..the pitcher is ready to throw. The pitcher throws the ball...and Alex Rodriguez make a hit...the ball is going up in the air...it looks like its going for a homerun but it hits the wall. Derek Jeter ties the game...and Alex Rodriguez is running to 2nd base...but the player from Boston makes a error by the ball slips out of his hand...Alex in 3rd base...Boston player throws the ball to the pitcher...the pitcher throws it to the catcher...Alex comes to the Home base...slides...SAFE!! New York Yankees wins the World Series. The main thing is create Alex Rodriguez running and sliding to home base.

Critics About The Flash Videos

Pink Butterflies with Grass--- Its pretty good, why? because it moves smoothly except on the last part it glitches. Good background and colors..why? because it goes with the animation.

Hobo to Megaman vs Monster--- Its not that good..why? because its pretty not realistic..to much moving in by the rectangle that doesn't make too much sense to the animation. Good creativity and imagining how to create this. To improve is have more time on this and more time on each layer.

Football--- Its a nice animated movement by hitting the post..but it needs more illustration of what is kicking the ball...not only the foot.

Elaine----Is going to fast that little green dragon..make it more slower. Also..don't be more about you but more about creativity...but its a good imagination and animation.

Mushroom----- It is a good and excellent imagination and creativity..why? because it entertains you by what is going to happen next when the mushrooms are on top of the object...this a good job

Leapfrog----- Very nice job.. by having this imagination..good entertaining..nice flippings over the person and good animation...but the characters are not moving there are still...but nice job!

The Cake Mystery----Excellent..by entertaining, the characters are getting in this animation very well and its funny....not alot of mistakes...good job

Mario and Karate Kid----Nice characters...gets the people attention..but what is point of this animation?...it just fades away but no point to it...but great job by doing this creativity and imagination animation

Star & A Heart---- Good background....entertains..but its going to fast...but besides that is a great job

Field Goal--- Good entertainment, nice grass....and good field goal..but the football would've been better...by making the football large..but when is going to make the good field goal..it could've gone smaller through out the timeline

Grrr---Good animation...nice background....and very cool bats...this is a very great job

Tommy & Shaggy--- Cool characters...nice car..and cool transformation...but it should've not been that fast..make it more lasting to see what is happening or the illustration

:) football and soccer---- Its going too fast..no point of it and just be more creative on this animation

DFC Dragon----Cool animation...nice imagination..and the characters are pretty cool....it has good time, good creativity, and good movement.....nice job

Chickens Fear----Good evil character..but is it kicking the chicken or did it run away by its own...need to work on that one...but nice job by creativity

5 things is used to create my animation

The 5 resources I used for the animation is motion tween, keyframe, layers, toolbar, and timeline.

This 5 resources I needed them to move, shapes, colors, and height and width. Also to create motions inside the timeline. That is why I used the motion tween to make animation. Including the layers to make the objects that I used to be separate options, to work individually in each object and not put everything together in one. This is not in the 5 resources, but I also included the properties, too change the size of the line. Including the timeline to see where to edit and how long does it take the animation to be. That is where keyframe comes in..to put a stop to where i wanted to end my animation. This is what i used to create my animation.

Describing Motion Tween & Shape Tween

Motion Tween is similar to Shape Tween by:

• They are both tween's
• Both could be motioning by increasing or decreasing the size throught the timeline
• They both need keyframes
• Both tween's can allow you to rotate the object
• Both tween's allows to move an object to a different place
• They both need the timeline to make the animation work
• They both need to have a layer
• They both use the properties and library
• Both tween's can edit by your tools
• They both need to have flash

Motion Tween & Shape Tween are different by:

1. In Shape Tweens you could include guides to make transitions better
2. Shape Tweens uses shape hints to morph animation with or without shape hints
3. Motion Tweens uses motion path to outline the object position in each of the selected frames, Shape Tweens doesn't
4. In motion tween's you need to use symbols and shape tween you don't need to
5. Motion Tweens doesn't have morph and Shape Tweens does

Compare and Contrast Old creating videos with New creating videos

With flash video is more quicker..more color...more specific or clear vision of watching and 3-D. With the old creating videos....it shows how they create by hand...and it is black and white too. Also they both have the same thing that is movement...creating it in a different way but in flash you dont see the lines when it changes to see the movement and in old times you did. Including now there is sound effects...speaking or talking by the character. In the old time they only had movement..words..and music during the film.

The flash you dont need to steer with a handle to make the film play...now you only press enter or click play and the film will play automatically by computer. In the old times they did had to steer the handle to make the play...and create the characters by drawing it in paper and go step-by-step. In 1911 Little Nemo to create that film the artist or drawer needed to draw each step on what he draw and to have 4000 drawings and put in the film...in a month. But in this movies this days is more technology advanced it makes it easier...and no drawing just filming by point of views and capturing that point of view...this is what makes this films from this era to the old era..

How To Create A Motiontween

The first thing you need to do is to have your stage in front of your screen and a timeline with the layer. Next step is to go to your panel and select the select(er) and in the same panel click also the oval symbol...hold it when you click and select a figure. When your done with that you click and hold inside the stage and move the mouse...for the figure to pop up. The next thing you do...is to right-click the figure and a menu bar pops up.. you click the motiontween. When you do that, move the figure to another location..then you click return and the figure will move.

Journal September 3, 2010--Brian New Change of Opinion

Well I learned about Brian and Sarah.......is that Brian has the rights to do this song about this poem because it was a gift from Sarah to Brian..but Sarah now she cant do anything about this because the copyrights laws favor on Brian side. Such as..she only did the poem and give the poem to Brian as a gift..she never said its mine and cant do anything else with it...but she didn't and Brian did what he did.....This concludes Brian has all the rights.

Sarah Copyright Problems with Brian

My thought about this copyright between Brian and Sarah....Brian has the right to copyright because Sarah voluntarily gave the poem as a gift to him. Now Sarah, demands or thinks she need to have the same level as Brian..that is fame, money and be known as in music records. But, the reason that she cant have this royalties...because when she gave the poem to him Brian that means its the poem is now to Brian. Now Brian is property of this poem, music and all what he wants to do with it.
