Animated Frog Jumping

This is an animation of a frog jumping on a lily pad!

I deserve a 3 in the Brushwork and Fills category because the whole entire animation is colored and is not white. The color of the frog and background is consistent throughout the whole animation. I also deserve a 3 in the Frame Sequencing category because the action of the frog jumping is smooth and not too choppy. I deserve a 3 in the background category because I drew in a background instead of just putting a random color in as a background. The background is consistent for the entire duration of the animation.

Wonder Woman Logo - Balance

The Wonder Woman logo demonstrates the first principle of design.There is a distribution of visual weight and space throughout the logo. The elements are balanced and allow the logo feel stable. The logo feels stable because the letters' size and depth are constant throughout the logo.This is an example of an asymmetrical balance because even though the sides are different, it still looks balanced.The logo is an example of an asymmetrical balance because if you cut the logo in half, both sides are different.

Animate Key Frame Frog

1. I used action script 3.0.
2. I chose to use action script 3.0 because action script 3.0 is newer than action script 2.0. Action script 3.0 is an upgraded version of action script 2.0.
3. I copied the photo from the website and pasted it onto flash and fixed the dimensions to fit the stage. Here are 2 examples of my work.
















4. Richard Williams hand drew his animations and worked on the films The Pink Panther and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
5. I researched him on the Google search engine.
6. The stage was 550 by 400 when I opened it.
7. I used Adobe Flash because it is the only software on our computer that can animate.
8. I used 4 layers including the copied picture from the internet. After I finished tracing the frog I deleted the layer with the copied picture. The second layer is for the frog itself. The next layer is for the background water and the last layer is for the lily pad.
9. For the background, I made most of it blue so that it would look like water. I also drew in a lily pad so that the frog would have something to jump on.
10. We created a frog because it has online instructions for us to learn from.
11. I clicked file then export then export image and then saved it.
12. I created 35 frames.

Privacy and Vulnerability

1. Empathy "feels connection" and sympathy "drives disconnection." Empathy is perspective taking, staying out of judgement, recognizing emotion, and communication. Sympathy usually begins with the words "at least."

2. Silver lining means a comforting prospect in times of difficulty.

3. Contrast your character with a dumber character.

4.


5. The three philosophers Greenwald discussed during the talk was Jeremy Bentham, Michael Foucalt, and George Orwell.

6. People need privacy even when they have nothing to hide. They close and lock bathroom doors, put locks on doors, and put passwords on emails and social media sites.

7. Brown's academic insecure part of her did not like being called a "storyteller."

8.  "If you can't measure it, it doesn't exist."
