Animated Life Lessons

P2T9 Friends Discover Creativity from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.

My teammates personal character traits are happy for Wailana, shy and funny for Micah, and creative for Kiana. I will exaggerate Wailana's character traits by having her be really perky and happy all the time. And for Micah's we are going to make him really shy and really funny at the talent show. And for kianas traits were going to make her magical and she will end up giving me and wailana the wish of becoming creative. 

We used humor in our story by making Micah yell when we were practicing for him to speak in public. Also when he performs at the talent show as a comedian, he's gonna say really funny jokes. Our message relates to people because have a shy side or a want to be creative. This film shows that people can over come shyness and become creative in any way. 

Our team's level of productivity with our team that ive never worked with was on and off. At some times out team was really good at time management, but sometimes we are not good at time management. Our biggest challange was getting the scences done in time becasue some of us were having a good time with our animating while other team mates were struggling with finishing thier scenes. I think our best moment during production was eaither when we were coming up with the story or when we finnaly finished the assignment. These were the best moments during production because it was fun making our own story and reliving when we finaly finished the assignment.

Character Development

I think I am an athletic person because I'm active and I play a lot of sports. I think this makes me athletic because I play volley ball, I swim, I surf, and I paddle when I can. Also, during the summer I do a program called Jr.Lifeguard where you train for a week. During Jr.Lifeguard you do running across the beach, swimming, and many body workouts. I also do a volley ball camp for a week during the summer with pro volleyball players who help you train and play better. This is why I think that I am an athletic person.I think that I'm relate able because I'm daring and adventurous.

I plant to exaggerate the traits of being daring and adventurous. I could do this by doing crazy things. I would exaggerate by doing something that no one else would do. I would also go to different places all the time. I would go to places that could be dangerous or exiting. And I would do interesting and unusual things.

The step by step process of creating my GIF character is first taking the picture.Then you cut it out in photo shop open the animation tool bar and puppet warp. That is when you get to create the movement of the figure your using. I like this process because you get to be creative in what your doing. You get to animate and make your own GIF using your own creativity or what you want to do.
