App Tutorial: Animation

Making an Animation

Step 1. A GIF can communicate messages visually and sometimes includes an animation to draw attention to it. Explore using one of the application tools listed on this page (or an alternate you identify with) with your teacher.

Step 2. Refer to your Project Plan and the supporting details you are going to address. Writing a script or drawing a draft of your ideas may be helpful.

Step 3. Check with your teacher about the different resources listed.

Step 4. Play and explore the website or the software tool until you are comfortable beginning to create your animation. Note: Save your animation frequently as you work.

Step 5. Show your idea and animation to another classmate or your teacher to make sure it clearly communicates your message. You may decide this tool is not the best choice for this project plan. You can look at the other media applications.

Step 6. When done, download or copy the link provided to share it with your teacher.
