Blog on creativity mission #3

Justin, Eddie and myself just finished the power point for our presentation. Justin will be the first one talking about the history and research of GIF's than is going to move onto myself talking about taking the pictures and videos, editing them and sending them to Eddie. Than Eddie will talk about making the actual GIF's.

Our goal for the presentation is for all of us to talk and point out all the tasks we done to put this project together.

Thank you for reading my blog again and see you after the presentation.

Blog on creativity mission #2

Hi there, welcome back to my journey. On Monday Eddie, Justin and I went into town to take the videos/pictures for the GIF. Our goal was to get a nice cinematic video of the city but that didn't turn out as well as we thought but we got some good pictures for a 3D looking cinematic GIF of Eddie which we were happy with.

We also got a funny video of myself for a fun/meme GIF. over all the day was successful and we got some nice and cool pictures/videos. On the day Justin told us about the history of GIF's. Some things we learned are that the earliest animation GIF was called "Simple Net Art Diagram and it was released in 1997. What i found interesting is that there are many tools you can use to create GIF's from using apps made for this to Photoshop.

I edited the pictures we took on Wednesday and sent them to Eddie to put them together as a GIF. My favourite one at the moment is the cinematic one of Eddie on the of a roof. Once is all done we will choose the best GIF together and finish the presentation.

Thank you all for reading my blog again and see you in a few days.

Blog on creativity mission #1

Hi there, and welcome back. The previous week Eddie, Justin and I chose to do the GIF mission. 

Talking about it, we split the tasks among each other. Justin has good research skills so he chose to do the research and history of GIF's and teach us about it. I have chosen to take the pictures/videos and edit them for the GIF and Eddie is going to put the pictures/videos together as a GIF.

Looking at some examples of GIF's (https://giphy.com/search/cinemagraphs) we chose to set our goal to make a rainy cinematic looking GIF but that all depends on how the weather will be on the day we meet up to take the pictures/videos (Monday). We will be taking all sort of pictures and videos to have a variety of pictures to have a backup in case our idea doesn't go as planned. 

That's it for now. I will update you all on how the shoot goes as soon as its all done! 

Thank you for reading my blog again. See you all soon!!
