2D Animation - Learning Activity 4

Hi Guys,

yet another flash animation! This one was a bit tricky, even though its not that crash hot, i think it's an OK effort for my first real animation

As you can see i built the launch platform, then add the rocket i did in flash, then a count down with rocket smoke building up, anyhow i realise i could make it heaps better if i wanted to spend MUCH more time on it

cheers

2D Animation - Learning activity 1

Hi again guys!

I realised how different flash is compared to photoshop, in fact i found it extremely hard drawing this boat and it took me much longer than 4hours :-(

Any how upon submitting this activity i realised i set the stage at the wrong size and i found i didn't use layers as much as i could have and i felt somewhat intimidated after looking at Leeann Jones effort, man is that great.

Hero shots - Digital Imaging Assessment

Hi guys,

yet another post, man there is some work involved in this course :-)

Anyhow i had some trouble identifying some of the font correctly, especially the heritage walk one where i matched it best as possible - this is what i find hardest at the moment identifying font families, anyone in that boat?

Digital Imaging - Learning Activity 9

1. Find 3 examples where a background image has been used on a website. Take a screen grab of each, save them as .jpgs 50 quality 800px wide.  Publish your favourite to your blog with a caption of why you like it.

I liked this one the best because its not over powering and doesn't take away the main focus of the site to much


2. Take your "tell-a-story-with-a-flatbed-scan" image and change it to make it into a web page background using Method (where the image receds into the background colour). Save it as a jpg 50 quality 930px wide.

Just to let you guys know i would never ever use my flatbed scanned image on any website, it is absolutely horrible, its just portraying method 2, cheers :-) 
 

3. Make a background for a web page using method 4 (1920px wide jpg, a few pixels tall, save as 100 quality). To test your image on a web page, download the Method4.zip folder, unzip the contents, locate and overwrite the bg.jpg file with your version then open the page in your browser.

Take a snapshot of your browser (PrtScrn on PC or on the Mac use the myriad of options) copy it into a new file in Photoshop, save as a jpg for your blog.


4. Make a seamless tile using method 5. Save as .jpg or .gif, whichever gives you the best quality for the lowest file size. To test your image on a web page, download this zip folder, unzip the contents, locate and overwrite the tilebg.jpg file with your version then open the page in your browser.
