Animation Outtakes

My teammates are,Leila Nelson, Brandi Baligad and Ana Ell. Leila is a very helpful teammate and always has ideas to make things better. Brandi is also a very helpful person and she is always there to help out. Ana, who is our main character, is interesting and has an interesting story to her life. All of my teammates are here to help and make sure we succeed in everything we have to do.

Stop-motion animation is is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object or person appear to look like it's moving on its own. Normally, if they use a person, they don't show the persons feet to show like it's hovering. That's what we plan on doing for our video. A .GIF or also known as Graphic Interchange Format, is an image file format commonly used for images on the web and sprites in software programs. Unlike the JPEG image format, GIF uses lossless compression that does not degrade the quality of the image. However, GIFs store image data using indexed color, meaning each image can include a maximum of 256 colors.

For our project we are doing a story about Ana. Her story is about moving from a new school to this school and feeling very shy until a couple girls invite her to come sit by them at lunch. People should care about this because a lot of people consider themselves shy, and find that it can stop them from doing things that they want to do. We also feel that this can symbolize many other challenges in life, and that it’s important to sometimes take risks. We also think this can be relatable, as well as an inspiration to be yourself and step outside of your shell.
