My Storyboard!!

Scene 1, 2, 3 and 4
Scene 5, 6, 7 and 8
Scene 9, 10, 11 and 12

My Storyboard:
My storyboard is animated in an American High school. It is about a popular girl falling in love with a nerd, but the other popular boy doesn't want her to because he is in love the popular girl as well. The girl always watches the nerd being beaten up by her peers and she begins to feel sympathetic towards the nerd. The popular girl asks the nerd to meet her at the chair one lunch time, but when she doesn't arrive on time, the popular boy has a stern talk to the nerd about seeing the popular girl. I was going to make the popular boy beat up the nerd, but I thought that it wouldn't be appropriate. Then, when the girl finally arrives at the chair, the boy takes her away from the nerd. This makes the girl very upset. She leaves a note with the nerd and they fall in love!!

iStopMotion- phone moving


In today's lesson I learn't how to use iStopMotion. I made a video of my phone moving around a desk. This made the phone look like it was moving by itself. I did this by moving my phone a tiny bit on every slide. I really enjoyed using iStopMotion and found it very interesting to learn how to make videos. I also experimented with backgrounds and foregrounds on my video.

Ballerina- animation-ish


In today's lesson and a couple of lessons before today, I made an animation-ish of a student doing ballet. There were a number of steps I had to complete to make this. Firstly, I drew a picture of a ballerina. I then copy and pasted the ballerina onto a new slide and moved it in any direction I wanted. If I wanted the ballerina in a different pose, I could re-draw the ballerina or move a part of her body, by choosing the mouse tool and double-clicking the part of her body I want. By doing this on many different slides, I could make it look like the ballerina was dancing. I really enjoyed making my ballerina and found it very interesting learning how to use Animation-ish.
