- What did you like/dislike about these projects and why?
I disliked the part of the project when I had everything set up but something in the video was off and I had to spend a lot of time tweaking it to make it come out correctly. On the other hand, I enjoyed the project because the end result was very satisfying to see at the end after all of the hard work.
- What are some new skills that you learned in these projects?
After finishing this project I learned how to use animators in After Effects. I learned about position, scale, and learned the overall software. In the beginning it was hard to understand what did what, but after using it for a while I got a hang of what to do and what moves text up, down, to the side, etc.
- What are some previously learned skills that were useful in creating these projects?
Learning Adobe Photoshop has helped me with After Effects because the tools are set up in a similar way. It gave me knowledge which helped lessen the confusion of After Effects which definitely helped me in the long run.
- Name at least one thing you did well in these projects and one thing that could be improved.
One thing I did well in this project is learning how to use the program and persevering through any obstacles and difficulties. I think that I could improve the speed in which I can make the animations and now that I know the program better, I think I could keep practicing until I can make these animations in just a minute or two.
- How creative were your projects?
The text I put into the animation were simple, but the animation itself is what I spent time on. I believe making a good animation is important because you can always change the text at the end to make it become more creative.
