Describe in your blog how far you got, why you stopped and if you want to continue. Continue working on your Thanksgiving Animation (see the Rubric attached for required items)	A-okay.  Yes Yes	I opened up the class as usual. Proceeded with the powerpoint to do the assigned. I honestly didn't get very far because I played the Star Wars html game and it was just /death/. I made R2D2 hit a metal block 3 times. It was truly an enticing game. Yesterday, because I didn't explain how I made my gif, since I figured it was simple enough that I had drawn it with layers and folders. So I did draw out the general idea on the paper you had us print out. Then put it in the basket. I thought it was a humorous idea to just having a turkey running away because it didn't want to be eaten. Then I opened photoshop and proceeded to draw four main frames of leg positions of the turkey. Then added four more for it to look more like a running motion. I used he animation feature in photoshop to preview the animation. Then I drew two different versions of the text because I think that wobbly text with a wobbly drawing go together pretty well. Added a floor. Then drew a tree and dragged it across for each frame to give the illusion that the turkey is moving from his spot. Added a light orange gradient in the background. I saved for web and devices, then called it a day. I don't really think it needs anything fading in it with an opacity change so I'll take the minus 10 points for that. I mean, I generally could have the tree fading, but I don't know. I'll take your opinion on it Monday.
