Ever wonder what type of person you were? Like, is there anything strange about you, like me, I'm VERY weird. Like the good kind of weird. Basically an imperfection about you. My weirdness is usually really funny. I'm full of craziness lol. Like while I was typing this I was cracking myself up lol. Anyways, not only am I weird, I'm like EXRTREMELY shy. Which kinda really sucks because I get kinda insecure about myself then I get anti-social and I have a hard time making friends. One last imperfection I have is that I have a hard time being alone. Yeah, I know I just said that I had a hard time making friends but when I do make friends it's hard for me to be by myself. Like when I was younger I would have to have people over all the time because I didn't know how to play by myself. I had cousins over all the time which is why I had that problem. All together I'm just weird, quiet, and kind of a social butterfly!
We all have many different character traits and we're supposed to apply some to our animation. The character trait I plan on exaggerating the most is my weirdness. I honestly love everything that's weird about me except for when I get REALLY weird. I'm going to exaggerate my weirdness in my animation by make my sprite thingy do the hit dance moves of the 21st century (Whip, Dab, Drop, etc). Another way I plan on exaggerating my weirdness in my animation is that I'm going to make my person weird is that I'm gonna make it fly. I've always wanted to fly but technically it's physically impossible so why not make a gif of me flying? A human flying, that's weird right?
Making your own .GIF animation character and your own .GIF isn't as easy as you think it is. Making your own .GIF is easier than making your character (if your using a different character). Starting with your character, you need to take pictures of your subject, we used ourselves. Mr. Sanderl took pictures of us in three different ways, Front, Back, and Side. Next, we went in to photoshop and cut ourselves out using the quick selection tool then copying and pasting the cut out in to a new layer. He wanted it to fit in our blogs so we had to crop it, 640 pixels by 720 pixels. Then we had to save it as a JPEG file. Then we used the puppet warp tool to morph our character to the way we wanted it and turned it in to a .gif. Honestly, I didn't really like mine. It was super basic, I jump a few times then I jump really high then I come back down and it re-loops. I could've done alot better but I ran out of time.
