This blog is dedicated to a beginning web animation class at Eagle Gate College in Salt Lake City. I'll be posting cool links to great flash sites, tutorials, portfolios, animations, games, etc. I'll also be publishing class projects and allowing comments from outside viewers. Follow our progress and play along!

Current Assignment

Assignment 3
Animate a Nested Symbol

Animate an object with at least one moving part. This is your chance to break away from the tutorials and animate something that you want to do!

Due: Thursday, April 17 (at the beginning of class!)

Objectives:

  • Design and create 1 animation of your own
  • Use keyframes, tweening, motion guides, ease in and out, sfx, nested symbols, and other techniques we’ve been learning.

Requirements:

Part A: Plan

  • Sketch your basic idea in your sketchbook. Determine what objects need to be drawn, what animation techniques will be used, and what happens over the course of your ten seconds.

Part B: Animate

  • 1 ten second animation, 24.0 fps and 550 x 400 containing a moving symbol with at least one moving part. (Ie. A butterfly moving around the screen while flapping it’s wings.)
  • Create vector graphics either in Flash or in Illustrator
  • Incorporate some of the principles of animation: squash and stretch, anticipation, staging, etc.
  • Add a sound clip or sound effect.

Graded on:

  • Technical requirements (listed above) 60%
  • Timeliness 20%
  • Aesthetics and creativity 20%
