Hello every one this is James Riddle and I m bout to tell you about my story animation thee video bellow is what I was able to get  completed in the time I had. I will admit I wanted to add another scene to my story and add more content to it.  some things I learned were how to  rotate my character around and animate the arms.

Bello is the  back round I used for my story. I created the background in photo shop then imported the file into after effects and then  animated my character.

  

Hello this is James Riddle  I am about to show you what I consider is some of my best work in Animation class

First I will show you my multiplane animation

I dont know if the video will play in blogger so I will have to describe the project to you ifferent parts of the video will move at different spedes similar to some 2d animated carton backgrounds or when you lookout the window wale driving.

I learned how to use the burn tool ( that's how i created the shadows under the trees and clouds) I also ws taught how to minuplate different lwers at different speeds and create different shpes with the brush tool.  how I waz taught this my class s shown how to use the different tools and minuplate the background as for the rest I learned through experementing and asking questions. I created the trees by using the brush tool in photoshop along with the burn tool to get the shadows I needed.  once the back ground was complete I imported the prject into After Effects so I could animate the project.

My worm project

For this project I learned how to use the puppet pin tool in after effects,make a character move across the screen,import a project into After Effects. We were shown how to use the brush tool to create the shape I needed after that We drew lines to get different parts of the worm and so the puppet in tool would work properly. After that  I drew a face on the front of the worm, once I finashed creating the background and the worm its self I used the gradent tool to give the worm a 3D optical illusion. once tha was done I  imported the project into after effects and used the pupit pin tool to have the worm move upward
