Scrolling
This one is probably my favorite GIF that I made. Over all I spent maybe 4 hours on this GIF trying to get the masking correct, again. I know it doesn’t look that great on the preview but click on the image and it looks better. With this one I really wanted to get into […]
Handwriting
This one was fun to film! I was creating these GIFs at work and Amy just so happened to be on while I was there. I had her help me with this GIF by writing out the words. I set the tripod up so it was over her shoulder. So I filmed her writing out […]
Typing
This GIF actually didn’t take me that long to finish up, another hour of work. With this one I wanted to experiment with my own movements to create the illusion of cinemagraph just with movements rather than with editing. Unfortunately I think this GIF is a fail… I couldn’t get the angle I wanted and […]
Highlighting Notes
I was starting to get the hang of things here so this one is not the greatest. I didn’t use a tripod so the footage was really shaky and I couldn’t figure out what to do. Another tutor helped me work through the problem. He showed me how to line up each layer then crop […]
Cinemagraph Planning
So when it comes to planning, some times I have the hardest time either planning or things come to mind very quickly. In this case, I had the hardest time coming up with ideas. I wanted each GIF to be challenging but I also wanted them to be doable. After continually rethinking what I […]
Final Project Planning
Hi there! So its time to plan my final project! I wanted to stick with GIFs because I really enjoy making and I think its fun to capture just a small moment in time. I also really enjoy getting them to loop as much closely as possible. So when I was starting to plan […]
Doodle Waves
I loved this project! I actually did something similar to this for my Design Principles class last fall, but I actually made a flipbook out of found GIFs. So I was excited to tackle this project. Unfortunately I ran into a creative block. I didn’t know what to draw. I’m not very good at drawing […]
GIF Mainia Take 2
Hi there! I loved making these GIFs! GIFs weren’t a new concept to me, I’ve made them for numerous classes throughout my time here at UMW (one post can be found over here). I am used to creating GIFs with found footage (clips of videos I’ve grabbed from YouTube) so it was a challenge for me […]
A Boat Ride With Myself
This project was a lot of fun! I was home over fall break and I decided to go ahead and take photos while I was on out boat one day. It was hilarious trying to get the right angles for the photos. I ended up having to redo the whole thing the next day. But… Continue reading A Boat Ride With Myself
