Workshop 1- Faces

In this workshop we all took picture of ourselves on each others laptops, helping all of us collect information. The reason why we are collecting images is because we are going to create a short animation on photoshop. I put all the images taken on one page, I made them all roughly the same size and line them up to fill the page. 

I had to place each image on top of each other, increase the size and place the image in the middle. Then I have to crop it down so i can only see the face. (no white space)

After I made sure the images where on top of one another, I had to click on windows and then click on the animation button. When that was done a small box will appear on the bottom of the screen, I just have to increase the amount of cells depending on how much images there are. (if there is 10 images you make 10 cells(there is a button on the box to increase cells)

To make sure we can only see one image at a time you have to click on the eye icon and the image will disappear. On the first cell you show one image, on the second cell you show two images and so on. 

After you have increased the number of cells, you then simply press play on the small box and if your happy with it. You click file export render video then when the video comes up you just press play.

This the finished animation 

To create a animation using both illustrator and photoshop you need to take the images from photoshop and pasta it on to illustrator, then you start marking the areas you think is necessary. This is simple by placing dots on the top of the head to the bottom of the chin, etc. We are doing this because we want to show all the possibilities of collecting information, showing software use and looking at another form of presenting. 

Once you have done that to all of the faces you delete the images and selected and copy the dots.

After deleting the images you then select the dots and move it to photoshop where we begin the animation process.

I inputted the dots on to photoshop and placed each image on top of each other. Now all that is left to do is go through the process of animation so click on windows, then animation and then final decide on the timing and then export it to render video and what's left to do is press play.
