ASSIGNMENT QUESTIONS

Describe which software you used and why you chose it.

I chose to make my animation through Inkscape because our teacher had given us a lesson to experiment on this program and so i had som epractice with even making an animation in it.

Describe the creation process you followed.

To create my animation, i first had to learn the many tools and image tpes to understand how to create it properly. Thre rest of my creation process is described throughput my many blogs about my animation.

What image format were you saving your work in during the development of the frames?

My work was saved as a png on Inkscape.

What image format did you save your frames as?

When i exported the frames, it was saved as a bitmap file (bmp).

What frame rate were you aiming for.

I was aiming for the frame rate of 0.05 seconds, but in the end, my average frame rate was 0.5 because otherwise, the animation would look rushed.

What was the final size of your animation?

My animation's file size is 2,377 KB (kilobytes)

What difficulties did you encounter and how did you overcome them?

Some difficulties i encountered include my text boxes being separate for each letter, making the alignment difficult. For this, i used the grid lines to keep them straight. Each lesson, my background would also disappear, then sir told me to insert a new layer for the background, after that it never disappeared. I also had to redo some frames when the blur intensity intervals were too big. Even when my ball bouncing sound effect wasn't matching the time of the animation, the oly way to  overcome this was to not have the sound effect alotgether, because it would waste more time if i didn't. So basically, through out all the problems i faced, i either had the teachers help, helped myself or just left it; i didn't let anything hold me back or let me be stuck anywhere.
