When we began the assignment the character I chose was Elmo. Unfortunately when I was tracing him Inkscape froze and after a few attempts at redoing everything I came to the conclusion that it wouldn't work and I won't be able to make any progress. So I resulted to picking a new character. My second choice was to use yellow,orange,green,blue and pink gemstones to represent the other colours and a ruby to represent Veritas. The animation was going to be the 6 other colours dancing in all happy and then the ruby comes flying in and zaps all the other colours away. But I wasn't sure I really liked the idea so I didn't continue with that. After deciding not to do Elmo or the gemstones animation it took me a while to figure out what I was going to do. I looked up cars and a red truck popped up so I decided to use a fire engine truck to represent Veritas. I was glad with my final decision and still am.
Another difficulty was tranferring the frames from to school to home. This is because my USB was misplaced and I couldn't transfer all the frames from home to school or school to home by email. So I decided to make all the frames at home then save it on my memory card to take to school and make it an animation.
When all the frames were made and I saved them on my memory card I took them to school to make into an animation. At first, when I was transferring the images from my memory card to Movie Maker it worked but saving it as a VLC was difficult to do because I forgot how to change it. Then when I was trying to reopen and resave the animation Movie Maker froze and wasn't working. So instead I used my sister's USB and transffered the frames into the USB then transferred them into my S drive and school. I was successful in doing so and I also figured out how to save the animation as a VLC folder with the help of one of the girls in another IST class.
