Macromedia Flash involves making a object move like a cartoon. In Macromedia Flash we make a bouncy ball that bounced off of the walls. We also made a squishy ball or a morph which is ball that changes sizes and shapes! Then we made picture of something, I made a lightening bolt. The last thing we did was text, my text had the zoom effect to it! In Macromedia we did all this by using flash and by inserting frames and changing the colors, drawing lines, and making a motion tween. There were alot of steps to making a flash animation in Macromedia.

Process
In Animoto, I created a video by picking a theme and adding multiple pictures! I put the pictures in a certain order to make it looks nice.. In Animoto I added a Title text, caption, and spotlight!! Then I added Music to fit the theme of my video! When i was done i processed my movie and embedded it into my Google site!


Purpose
The purpose of making this video in Animoto was to experience making a quick and easy movie!! Animoto was quick and easy to use because it was very precise on how to do something! 


Possibilities
If i were to do this again I could go about it differently and do it faster and quicker because I would know what to do right off the bat! I would recommend using Animoto because it is easy and the movie turns out great in the end! If I were to train someone to make a video off of Animtoto it would be really easy because it was so easy to understand!

Zoo

Process

I created a zoo movie by using Photostory! In Photostory you can edit you pictures to different shapes and effects, you can also use different transitions and slides, and enter text and music to make it more interesting! The photo i used was from Kids Biology, it was a Dolphin! I enhanced my slides by editing my pictures to look different and by using different transitions and animations like star, and v-up. The music i selected was from Mrs, Rice in global. I selected my music to fit my theme and make the movie more interesting!

Purpose 

We used Photostory to make this movie because it was easy to use and had tons of cool things you could do to make your movie look nice. The application was unique because it allowed you to apply different effects to your pictures and had many animations and transitions. Photostory was easy to use after I got use to it!

The effect of putting a zoo page on Snowed Inn was to show the viewers that Snowed Inn has a lot to offer, and cool things to do! My movie appeals to the visitors at the Inn because the affects i used makes it look nice, and would make people want to come!

Possibilities

For this movie photo story applying transitions and animations and effect on pictures worked really well because it was quick and easy top use!! In photo story putting text in and making it appeal to the visitor didn't work to well! To enhance the the content to this webpage I could of chose different affects for my pictures! Since i know what I'm working with know i could defiantly created this movie quicker and faster if i were to do it again! I think i could train someone else to do this movie, because i caught on so fast and it was easy!

 

Snowed Inn Galleria
Kristen Ferguson

Process 

I created my Galleria Movie by using power point in Microsoft Office. On power point you can do many things like, using transitions and animations. On power point I used some transitions like cube and gallery, also i used used tons of animations like fade, fly-in, and appear! I enhanced my slides by using different colors and fonts, I also tried to follow the rule of thirds to make my power point look nice! I used pictures of stores and shops, because I was doing Galleria! My music came from Mrs. Rice I selected it in global. The music I used was instrumental, because I thought it would fit the theme. When your done in power point you have to convert it into a movie, I did this by saying it as a "Windows Media File", then I uploaded it into YouTube!

Purpose

I used power point to make this movie because its has nice effects and can make your power point look very nice! Power point is a easier to use than other applications because it user friendly and easy to understand! Power point also makes it easy to upload pictures, and change the backgrounds, and a ton of other things! The purpose of the Galleria page was to show the viewers what the hotel offers, and to persuade then to come! My Movie was upbeat because of all the colors made it pop! My movie as a appeal to viewers because it shows that my Snowed Inn hotel has a lot to offer!

Possibilities

For my movie it was easy making the slides and making them look nice, but putting the music in didn't work as well because it was way to long and I had to adjust it! I did it differently by going and choosing a shorter music file, and it worked better for my Movie anyways! More information about my Movie could be added to my webpage to enhance it! If I were to do make another Movie I could defiantly do it faster because I know how to use everything better now and it would just be easy, because I've used it so much now! I think I would be able to train someone else to use make this movie because ! know the steps to doing it!
