Problem

I Have many ideas that I want to do for the animation but i am having trouble combinding the. At the moment i have over 30 slides; the animation starts with the world growing bigger and then it changes to a short slide of a tree and then a leaf falling of the tree. I dont know how to make the animation about clare.

Inkscape- earth edit

On my last post on Blogger i posted, my animation on the zooming earth i have decided to change the backround of the animation. Instead of having the animation with a transperreent backround to a black backround.

Animation- Earth Part 1 of the proccess of the animation

This is how much of my animation i have done so far. I have decided that i would zoom on the earth and then i would zoom it into australian and then to a street where i would colour everything orange.

In this video there is 13 earth pictures to create a 3 secound video. This took my about 3 minutes to do. I think i am becoming faster at making the animation. i cant wait to see the completed animation.

This animation took alot of work to actually start because i had to create the world and then edit the page layout and then export it. At one point of the animation i check to see how it was going and realized i didnt select page when exporting so i had to start again.

One of the things that i want to improve on this animation is that i want to be able to spin the earth while zooming in. I believe that if i could do that it would create a bigger effect and it would enable me to do less slide when exporting the image

Inkscape- Cartoon Characters

I guess i have to find something that is not that hard to trace and edit.

Today i continued my research on what to do for my animation. I am still unsure on what to do, but i have been looking up orange cartoon characters. I found garfield and the evil orange character. I decided to try and trace a picture of garfield on inkscape and then edit the curves, but i had alot of trouble with doing the curves they just wouldnt come up that neat and they looked rushed and ugly.

Planning for the assessement


Today we got given out the assignment. I have alot of thoughs and i am a bit nervous and terrified about starting. I have a few plans on what to do for the assignment, but i am very unsure about what to do or choose.

1) penguin - Although a penguin is not orange or in anyway represent clare i believe that i can change the colour of the penguin and make a short animation with the penguin waving and holding a orange banner saying GO CLARE!

2) An ipod that has a recording of a person or some kind of symbol representing clare (orange)

At the moment those are the only ideas i can think of. I am sure that i can upload more ideas as i progress in the assessement but at the moment i think i need to work and expand my idea basses and learn a bit more about inkscape and practice how to export bipmat images.
